Synopsis

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

Taxillus chinensis, commonly known as Chinese mistletoe, is primarily used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for conditions such as rheumatism, hypertension, and to strengthen bones, rather than specifically for stress. In TCM, it is believed to nourish the liver and kidneys, dispel wind-dampness, and calm the fetus. While some of these properties could be loosely interpreted as having a calming or balancing effect, direct evidence or historical documentation of its use specifically for stress or anxiety is limited. There are no robust clinical trials or pharmacological studies directly investigating Taxillus chinensis for stress reduction in humans. The use of this herb for stress, if practiced, is largely extrapolated from its more general tonic effects described in TCM texts, rather than backed by targeted or validated scientific research. Thus, its use for stress is based on tradition, with weak or indirect historical support, and little to no direct scientific validation for this particular indication.
