dc.description | The history of using medicinal herbs and plant dates back to the ancient times. Chinese onion (Allium chinense) is famous as a plant for both food and medicinal purposes. It is widely cultivated as a vegetable and native to China. Its bulbs are commonly processed into pickles and spices. The bulb is anthelmintic, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antispasmodic, carminative, diuretic, expectorant, febrifuge, hypoglycaemic, hyptensive, lithontripic, stomachic and tonic. It can be also used to prevent oral infection and tooth decay.
