Synopsis

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

Chrysanthemum maximum, commonly known as Shasta daisy, is not a well-known medicinal herb in either traditional Eastern or Western medicine. However, some related species in the Chrysanthemum genus (such as Chrysanthemum morifolium and Chrysanthemum indicum) have been used traditionally in Chinese and other Asian systems of medicine, mainly for the treatment of respiratory conditions, including bronchitis. The use of Chrysanthemum maximum specifically for bronchitis is not well-documented in historical texts or ethnobotanical literature. Any references to the use of Chrysanthemum for bronchitis tend to refer to other species with recognized medicinal properties. There is no scientific evidence or clinical research specifically supporting the use of Chrysanthemum maximum for bronchitis. In summary, while the broader genus has some traditional associations with respiratory health, the evidence for Chrysanthemum maximum itself is extremely limited and is based more on generalization from related plants rather than direct support from tradition or science.
