Rating (out of 5): 1

False Unicorn (Chamaelirium luteum) has a long history of use in North American herbal medicine, particularly among Native American tribes and later in eclectic and early American herbal traditions. It is most commonly associated with women's reproductive health, being used to address conditions such as amenorrhea, infertility, and other menstrual irregularities. Its use for supporting the adrenal glands, however, is primarily rooted in traditional and folk practices rather than scientific validation. Herbalists historically classified "weakened adrenals" or "adrenal fatigue" with symptoms like fatigue, hormonal imbalances, and stress, and sometimes recommended False Unicorn as a tonic for these complaints, possibly due to its general tonic effects on the endocrine system. However, there is a lack of clinical trials or robust phytochemical studies specifically validating its action on the adrenal glands. Most modern herbal references mention adrenal support only anecdotally or in passing, often without citations. Thus, the evidence for using False Unicorn to support the adrenal glands is weak and largely based on tradition rather than scientific proof.
