Abstract

Kopriva (Urtica dioica L.) stoljećima se koristila u kao lijek, prehrambeni proizvod, a prisutna je i u tekstilnoj industriji. Provedena znanstvena istraživanja ukazuju na koprivin terapijski potencijal koji se pripisuje njenom antioksidacijskom, protuupalnom i imunomodulacijskom učinku. Primjenjuje se u terapiji i suzbijanju simptoma benigne hiperplazije prostate, osteoartritisa, dijabetesa i alergijskog rinitisa. S obzirom da su kliničke studije o koprivi dosta ograničene, i dalje se istražuje njeno djelovanje na zdravlje čovjeka. Danas se preparati od koprive mogu naći u ljekarnama i specijaliziranim prodavaonicama kao dodatak prehrani, a najčešče dolaze u obliku čaja, kapsula, tinktura, šampona za kosu, krema, losiona i masti.
