Elecampane gets its Latin name, Inula helenium, from the legend of Helen of Troy, who was supposed tohave carried a bouquet of elecampane with her while being abducted from Sparta. Ancient Greeks andRomans used this herb to treat indigestion, sciatica, bronchitis, and asthma
asthma.Elecampane contains inulin, a phytochemical that coats and soothes the lining of the bronchial passages andacts as an expectorant in the body. Inulin helps promote beneficial intestinal bacteria, very important since80% of the immune system is located in the digestive system. Studies have also shown two other activeingredients in elecampane, alantolactone and isoalantolactone, to be useful in treating parasites, includingroundworm, hookworm, whipworm, and threadworm; this research supports the traditional use ofelecampane to treat digestive disorders and parasitic infections.
It has also been reported that Enula iseffective against certain species of Babesia, a parasite commonly associated with Borreliosis (Lyme disease).Elecampane root and rhizome contain approximately 1–4% volatile oils. Most of these volatile oils arecomposed of sesquiterpene lactones, including alantolactone. Elecampane is also very high in inulin (44%)and mucilage. Most herbal texts attribute the actions of elecampane to alantolactone. The antitussive (coughprevention and treatment) and carminative (intestinal tract soothing) effects of elecampane,however, may possibly be due to the inulin and mucilage content.
In a 1:1000 dilution Elecampane kills the parasitic worm Ascaris in 16 hours. Alantolactonehas an anti-inflammatory action, it also reduces mucous secretions and stimulates theimmune system.
