*Nasturtium sisymbrioides*, commonly known as the common nasturtium, has been traditionally used for its medicinal properties due to its high content of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. The plant contains compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, and essential oils, which contribute to its anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and wound-healing properties. Historically, it has been applied externally to treat skin conditions like eczema and insect bites, and internally to support respiratory health and digestion. Modern research suggests potential benefits in reducing oxidative stress and supporting immune function. However, while it is generally considered safe in moderate amounts, it should be used with caution, as large doses may cause gastrointestinal irritation.
