Rehmannia glutinosa

Rehmannia glutinosa is one of the 50 fundamental herbs[1] used in traditional Chinese medicine, where it has the name Sheng Di huang (Chinese: [生]地黄). It is often sold as gān dì huáng (Chinese: 干地黄), gān meaning "dried."

Uses

One of the traditional uses in traditional Chinese medicine for Rehmannia glutinosa has been in the area of tinnitus and hearing loss.[citation needed] The plant seems to have efficacy in the scavenging of free radicals in vitro.[2] This study however, does not report the effects of Rehmannia glutinosa in human subjects.[Clarification needed]
