Helichrysum italicum is a plant found in dry, sandy areas of the Mediterranean and is known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-microbial properties. Several studies have evaluated these relationships, and results are overwhelmingly positive. In a study done by Nostro et al. (2001) they looked at inhibitory effect on growth of Staphylococcus aureus with Helichrysum italicum. They found that Helichrysum italicum did inhibit growth of S. aureus and several of its enzymes. Also, Sala et al. (2002) determined in vitro and in vivo anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities with Helichrysum italicum. This study concluded inflammatory enzyme inhibition, free-radical scavenging activity, and corticoid-like effects determined the anti-inflammatory effects of Helichrysum italicum.
