Ligustrum lucidum is a Chinese medicinal herb used to treat poor vision, dizziness, fever, and insomnia, and to increase immune function in cancer patients. In vitro studies suggest it has antioxidant, antitumor, and immune function effects. A few animal studies suggest properties that may have benefits on bone and vision.
Data in humans are quite limited. In a small study of non-small cell lung cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, a formula containing reishi mushroom and Ligustrum was found to help maintain quality of life. Additional studies to confirm efficacy and safety are needed.
Ligustrum lucidum is a medicinal plant that is often used in combination with other herbs in traditional Chinese medicine. There are several species of Ligustrum that are thought to have different medicinal properties. Traditionally, the plant is used to treat diminished eyesight, dizziness, fever, and insomnia. Some herbalists also use it to treat side effects caused by chemotherapy and to increase immune function in cancer patients.
In vitro studies suggest that the fruits of Ligustrum lucidum have antitumor, immunomodulatory, antidiabetic, antiosteoporotic, antiviral, antimutagenic , hepatoprotective, and cytotoxic effects. In animal models, Ligustrum compounds showed antiosteoporotic and vision-sparing effects. Ligustrum combined with Siberian ginseng may have protective effects against chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression.
