Scientific Summary

Mimosa pudica is a flowering plant in the legume family. It is primarily noted for its toxic compound mimosine, and there are no well‑documented therapeutic uses in human medicine. Because large amounts can be poisonous and animal studies have shown teratogenic effects, it should be used with caution.
