Most users of natural medicine associate Mulungu to the treatment of anxiety and insomnia, as it possesses calming and sedative properties that can be of great help to alleviate menstrual cramps and rheumatic pain. Products that carry this plant’s components in their formula can be found, amongst other less popular forms, as tinctures and capsules.

According to folk beliefs and common sacred practices of natural healing, Mulungu may offer relief of rheumatic pain, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and anticonvulsant properties, hepatoprotection and hypotensive action, and aiding in inhibiting smoking addictions. Certain medicinal effects and benefits of this plant have, even, been scientifically tested and confirmed.
