Traditional treatments for GIT diseases include the use of botanicals like Zingiber officinale, Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Artemisia vulgaris, etc. As a result of this investigation, it was determined that Bergenia ligulata rhizome methanolic extract has antispasmodic properties in intestinal tissue, suggesting its potential use as an antidiarrheal medication.
