I'm genuinely surprised that there are only 6 clinical trials for this herb. I would have thought this would have been one of the most researched of natural/ayurvedic herbs.

I guess that goes to show the real problem with establishing the efficacy of natural medicines is more to do with the lack of research, not the lack of evidence.

I was pretty surprised too for similar reasons. It’s so widely used. But you’re very right, the lack of research presents the lack of evidence problem. No way to patent an herb, so little funding exists.
