Abstract
- A recent study conducted by researchers at Yantai University in Shandong, China, provides a comprehensive review of the traditional applications, phytochemistry, pharmacology, and safety of Houttuynia Cordata Thunb.

The study found that H. cordata contains volatile oils, flavonoids, polysaccharides, and alkaloids, and has various health benefits. It has been found to possess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, antibacterial, hepatoprotective, immunomodulatory, and antiviral effects. The researchers suggest that H. cordata deserves further attention and research in the future. [Extracted from the article]
