Synopsis

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

Chamomile has been traditionally used in various cultures as a remedy for liver disorders, including jaundice, particularly in systems of traditional medicine such as Unani and some European folk practices. Historical texts and ethnobotanical surveys report its use as a mild liver tonic and choleretic (stimulating bile flow), which is indirectly linked to jaundice management. However, there is a notable lack of controlled scientific studies evaluating chamomile’s effectiveness for treating jaundice in adults. Modern phytotherapy references may mention its historical use, but clinical trials or robust pharmacological data directly supporting chamomile for jaundice are absent. The evidence is therefore largely anecdotal or based on traditional usage, and major medical guidelines do not recognize chamomile as a validated treatment for jaundice. Its use today for this purpose is mostly confined to traditional or complementary medicine contexts rather than evidence-based medicine.
