Matrine Benefits and Uses

Matrine is a water-soluble alkaloid extracted from Sophora flavescens, an evergreen shrub that grows in tropical climates. It is a popular nutraceutical and is commonly taken to improve immune function and support liver health.

Sophora flavescens has been used as a herbal remedy in traditional Chinese medicine for many centuries. Sophora flavescens possesses over 16 bioactive compounds, of which the most prominent is the alkaloid matrine and its related compounds oxymatrine and sophoridine. Matrine is also found in other plant species of the Sophora family.

Anecdotally, Matrine may offer some important immune and circulatory system-supporting benefits. Matrine also promotes restful sleep and relaxation.
