WIld Lettuce for pain.
Wild lettuce is a natural remedy sourced from the Lactuca virosa plant. Extracts of the plant's sap, seeds, and leaves are typically used in wild lettuce products. Touted as a natural treatment for a wide range of health problems, wild lettuce is said to lower stress and relieve pain.
Benefits
Certain compounds found in wild lettuce appear to have pain-relieving and sedative effects, according to preliminary research conducted on animals.
For example, a study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology in 2006 found that lactucin and lactucopicrin (chemicals naturally present in wild lettuce) reduced pain and promoted sedation when given to mice.
There's currently a lack of studies testing wild lettuce for its effects on human health. What's more, animal-based research on wild lettuce is also very limited.
Uses
When used in alternative medicine, wild lettuce is said to be an herbal remedy for the following health conditions:
Asthma
Atherosclerosis
Cough
Insomnia
Joint pain
Menstrual pain
Wild lettuce also is used to stimulate circulation. And, when applied directly to the skin, oil extracted from the seeds of wild lettuce is thought to offer sanitizing benefits
In addition, some individuals consume wild lettuce recreationally for its potentially mind-altering effects. Supposedly similar in action to opium (and used as an opium alternative by physicians in the 19th century), wild lettuce is said to possess sedative and hypnotic properties.
