While Zosteraceae (seagrasses) are vital for marine ecosystems, providing habitat and oxygen, there is limited scientific evidence to support their direct medicinal uses in humans. Some traditional practices may have incorporated seagrasses for various ailments, but these lack rigorous scientific validation. Research on the potential bioactive compounds within Zosteraceae is ongoing, and future studies may reveal novel medicinal properties. However, as of now, there are no widely recognized or documented medicinal applications of Zosteraceae plants.
