Based on its monoterpene hydrocarbons, Angelica Oil may be antispasmodic, carminative, depurative, diaphoretic, digestive, diuretic, hepatic, stomachic and tonic; however, it has photosensitizing properties as well, and may have properties as a nervine stimulant. Though animal studies had indicated it has the properties for which it is known in China, more studies are necessary to test its safety and efficiency in humans.

 

History:Used in the West for perfumery, the stem boiled in sugar was used as a decorative confection in Europe, and the herb used as one of the primary ingredients in flavouring Chartreuse, Benedictine and gin. The herb has long been used in traditional East Asian medicine, dating back to 400 BCE as one of the first drugs recorded in China. It is still used in Chinese medicine, as a tonic to improve gynaecological and general health of women.
