Researchers from the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco and the Federal University of Pernambuco in Brazil found that jurubeba (Solanum paniculatum) has potential use as a natural remedy for diarrhea. The study, published in The Brazilian Journal of Pharmacognosy, evaluated the antidiarrheal activity of extracts from the plant through in vivo experimental models.
From this study, the researchers concluded that jurubeba has antidiarrheal activity, which is possibly due to the presence of chlorogenic acid.
