Rating (out of 5): 1

Pareira, commonly referring to Pareira brava (Chondrodendron tomentosum), is an herb used in traditional medicine systems, particularly in South America, for a variety of ailments, primarily relating to the urinary tract. In homeopathic and herbal traditions, it has also been ascribed some use for glandular swellings or issues of the lymphatic system, although this is far less common than its use for urinary concerns. There is no robust scientific research or clinical trial evidence supporting the use of Pareira for swollen lymph nodes or glands. The limited traditional references focus on its supposed detoxifying and anti-inflammatory properties, which, in theory, could be extended to lymphatic conditions. However, such use is based on historical or anecdotal application rather than formal study. Overall, Pareira’s use for supporting or treating swollen lymph nodes or glands is justified primarily by tradition, not science, and the evidence is very weak (rated 1/5), mostly consisting of indirect or generalized claims found in older herbal or homeopathic texts.
