Cloves consist of the flower buds of the syzygium aromaticum plant, which is native to the Molucca Islands but is now cultivated in tropical regions worldwide. The clove resembles an evergreen tree, with short, lance-like leaves and whitish-pink flowers. The buds are picked by hand, then dried, before being added to herbal preparations. The main ingredient in cloves is an essential oil, which has antiseptic, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antispasmodic and anesthetic properties.
In traditional Chinese medicine, cloves have pungent and warm properties, and are associated with the Spleen, Stomach and Kidney meridians. Its functions are to dispel cold, warm the middle burner, push rebellious stomach qi downward, and warm kidney yang. Among the conditions treated by cloves are hiccoughs, poor appetite, nausea, diarrhea, weakness and paresthesia in the lower limbs, and impotence. The German Commission E has recommended that cloves be used to treat inflammatory changes of the oral and pharyngeal mucus membranes, and can be used in dentistry as a form of topical anesthesia.
