Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Tree Peony (Paeonia suffruticosa) root has a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), where it is known as "Mu Dan Pi." In TCM, it is valued for its ability to clear heat, cool the blood, and move stagnant blood. While Tree Peony is not typically described as a direct tonic for "energy" in the modern Western sense, it is sometimes included in herbal formulas designed to address fatigue or lack of energy that is believed to be related to blood stasis or heat conditions. In this context, the traditional use is more about restoring balance and promoting overall vitality, rather than directly boosting energy like ginseng or other qi tonics. There is limited scientific evidence specifically supporting Tree Peony root for the treatment of fatigue or lack of energy. Most research on Tree Peony focuses on its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and immunomodulatory properties, as well as its use in gynecological and autoimmune conditions. Some animal and in vitro studies suggest potential neuroprotective and adaptogenic effects, but these are preliminary and not directly related to subjective energy levels in humans. Therefore, the evidence for its use in supporting energy is primarily traditional, with few robust scientific studies to validate these claims.
