Evidence notes
Coriander fruit and linalool have been studied in traditional contexts and in vitro, with some animal studies showing anxiolytic potential. Human clinical trials are very limited. Supercritical CO2 extraction is a high-quality extraction method but does not independently strengthen the evidence base. Grade reflects preliminary human evidence.
Grade C: Mostly observational or small trials; mechanism is plausible but unproven at scale.
