Chelidonium majus
Historical Aspects:
Celandine, also known as greater celandine, has a long history of medicinal use, particularly in Europe and Asia. In ancient Greece, the herb was used to treat eye problems, such as conjunctivitis and cataracts, and was also used as a remedy for liver and gallbladder issues. Its name, "celandine," derives from the Greek word chelidon, meaning "swallow," because the plant reportedly flowers around the time when swallows return from migration. In medieval times, Celandine was considered a valuable herbal remedy for various ailments, especially for digestive and liver disorders. It was also used for wart removal, with the sap being applied directly to the skin. Celandine was often included in folk medicine for treating jaundice, liver problems, and gallstones.
In more recent times, Celandine has been acknowledged for its ability to help with digestive issues, particularly gallbladder and liver disorders, but it is important to use the herb with caution, as it can be toxic in large doses.
