Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Allium tuberosum Rottl., commonly known as Chinese chive or garlic chive, has a longstanding presence in traditional medicine systems, particularly within East Asian herbal practices. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), it has been used for a variety of ailments, sometimes including conditions described as "blood heat" or toxin-related illnesses, which may be interpreted in modern terms as blood poisoning or septicemia. However, the historical texts do not specifically equate these uses with the modern clinical diagnosis of blood poisoning (sepsis), and the applications are often broader, covering general detoxification or infection-related symptoms. There is a paucity of rigorous scientific studies or clinical trials directly evaluating the efficacy of Allium tuberosum for treating blood poisoning or sepsis in humans or animal models. Some preliminary pharmacological investigations have suggested that Allium species possess antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, but these findings are not specific to the treatment of bloodstream infections or sepsis. Thus, while its use for "blood poisoning" is primarily supported by tradition, the supporting evidence is weak and does not meet modern scientific standards.
