Grindelia may act as an expectorant and sedative, with an action resembling atropine. It has been recommended for bladder health concerns and catarrh of the bladder, but its principal use is in bronchial catarrh, especially when there is any asthmatic tendency. It supports dyspnoea due to heart health issues, has been successfully employed in whooping cough and as a local application in rhus poisoning, burns, genito-urinary catarrh, etc. As its active principle is excreted from the kidneys, it sometimes produces signs of renal irritation; in chronic catarrh of the bladder it stimulates the mucous membrane.

Description: Gumweed is a perennial plant with toothed, simple leaves and attractive dark yellow flower heads borne on leafy stalks. Surrounding each flowering head are prominent, sharp-tipped, green involucral bracts that give a bristly, thistle-like appearance to the unopened heads. G. camporam is an acceptable alternative source of material and can be used interchangeably with G. squarrosa. Two other useful species are (G. robusta and G. humilis.

Origin: North America - northwestern parts of the USA (G. squarrosa) or the southwestern parts of the USA and Mexico (G. camporum). G. squarrosa has become a weed in Britain and Australia and is nowadays often a source of raw material.

Parts Used: Dried flowering tops and leaves (gumweed herb - Grindeliae herba).

Therapeutic Category: Antitussive, spasmolytic.

Uses and Properties: Gumweeds are traditionally used to help support coughs and catarrh of the respiratory tract, including asthma and coughs. Externally it is considered to be effective against skin problems, wounds and skin irritations. Traditionally to help ort a healthy urinary tract, digestive issues and arteriosclerosis.

Active Ingredients: Grindelia species contain a resin consisting of numerous diterpenes of the labdane type (grindelic acid is a main compound). Also present are phenolic acids, a volatile oil (mainly borneol, camphor, limonene and methyleugenol), flavonoids (kaempferol, luteolin), gallo- and ellagitannins, polyacetylenes (matricarianol) and triterpene saponins.

Spasmolytic and anti-inflammatory effects were also shown experimentally.
