Orthosiphon

Orthosiphon est un genre de plantes de la famille des Lamiaceae.

Orthosiphon aristatus (O. stamineus) est parfois appelé thé de Java du fait de son origine indonésienne.

Propriétés pharmacologiques

La feuille et la sommité florale ont des propriétés diurétiques et cholagogues (facilite l'élimination de la bile). La plante n'a pas d'utilité dans les régimes amincissants, la masse perdue ne correspond pas à de la graisse mais à de l'eau (aucun effet à long terme).
