Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Red Sage (Salvia miltiorrhiza) has a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine, primarily for improving blood circulation, alleviating cardiovascular issues, and addressing menstrual disorders rather than specifically for menopause symptoms. Its application for menopause is largely rooted in traditional practices, where it is sometimes included in herbal formulas designed to balance hormones and manage symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, or mood changes. However, there is limited direct scientific evidence supporting its efficacy for menopause. Most of the available research on Red Sage focuses on its cardiovascular, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties, rather than its effects on menopausal symptoms. Some preclinical studies suggest potential benefits for hormone modulation, but these findings are not robust or directly linked to clinical outcomes in menopausal women. Therefore, while Red Sage may be used in traditional herbal medicine for menopause support, its use for this purpose is not strongly validated by modern scientific research at this time.
