Kūmarahou (Pomaderris kumeraho) is a native New Zealand shrub that has been used by Māori for generations. Mātauranga associated with kūmarahou has been passed down through our ancestors, including knowledge of what the plant is used for and how it is prepared.
As we have been taught, kūmarahou is a natural go-to plant for conditions that affect our respiratory system. It has also traditionally been used to promote healthy skin.
Kūmarahou is often used to support respiratory health, particularly for conditions such as coughs, colds and flu. Its traditional use also extends to respiratory conditions including asthma, emphysema and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Kūmarahou has earned the trust of Māori through generations of use associated with clearing the airways and promoting easier breathing.
Kūmarahou contains saponins, which are thought to have anti-inflammatory properties. This makes the plant potentially useful for soothing inflamed tissues and easing discomfort.
Within Māori traditional knowledge, kūmarahou has also been associated with helping damaged lung tissue.
Mātauranga tuku iho — knowledge passed down by our ancestors — suggests that kūmarahou may have antimicrobial properties, which could help the body fight infections.
Historical accounts support the Māori understanding that kūmarahou acts as an expectorant, helping to loosen and expel mucus from the respiratory tract.
This traditional use is particularly associated with chest congestion and respiratory discomfort.
Kūmarahou has been applied topically for generations as part of Māori traditional skin care.
Its traditional uses include helping skin affected by eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, acne, sores, grazes, cuts and burns.
Kūmarahou has also been used traditionally to soothe itchiness and irritation, including skin affected by scalds and sunburn.
