Skullcap (Scutellaria) a genus of flowering plants in the mint family. The name is derived from the Latin word scutella, which means “little dish,” as the small flowers of these plants have a dish- or helmet-like shape

 

The range of health benefits of skullcap is due to the presence of various phenolic compounds and flavones that impact the body in many different ways.

 

Phenolic compounds can have a wide range of effect on our hormonal balance, as they happen to be rich in antioxidant compounds.

 

The plant was traditionally used by native Americans for hundreds of years.

 

The most important health benefits of skullcap include its ability to help prevent certain cancers, reduce anxiety, soothe the nervous system, treat diabetes, aid in weight loss, lower inflammation, balance hormones, and regulate sleep.

 

Skullcap possesses certain analgesic properties, meaning that consuming it can help to relieve pain throughout the body, partially through a reduction in inflammation.

 

Other potential benefits of skullcap:

 

  • May soothe the nervous system
  • May aid the removal of toxins
  • Could help to manage diabetes - Insulin and glucose regulation is essential and it appears that skullcap is able to increase the production of insulin by the pancreas and helps to regulate the insulin levels in the body.
  • May help in weight loss - Although research on this particular aspect of skullcap is still unclear, it appears that the reduction of triglycerides stimulated by this herb can help with rapid weight loss when combined with a proper diet.
  • Potential anti cancer - According to the International Journal of Molecular Medicine, Chinese skullcap has been known to induce apoptosis (sudden cell death), in cancerous cells and is used for the treatment of cancer.
