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

False Unicorn (Chamaelirium luteum) has a long history of use in traditional herbal medicine, particularly within Native American and early North American herbal traditions. It has primarily been used to support the female reproductive system, but it is also cited in traditional herbal texts as beneficial for the urinary tract. Traditional uses include addressing conditions such as urinary tract inflammation, dysuria (painful urination), and other urogenital complaints, often as a tonic for the kidneys and bladder. The rationale for its use is largely anecdotal and based on folk practice, with references found in 19th and early 20th-century herbal compendiums.

Despite this history, there is a lack of robust scientific evidence to support the efficacy or safety of False Unicorn for urinary system support. There are very few clinical trials or pharmacological studies available, and most modern herbal references cite historical rather than scientific justification for its use. The available evidence is thus best categorized as traditional, with a modest level of support based on anecdotal and historical reports rather than contemporary scientific validation.
