Synopsis
Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1
Lavandin (Lavandula x intermedia) is a hybrid species derived from true lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) and spike lavender (Lavandula latifolia). Its essential oil has been used in traditional aromatherapy and folk practices, often as a substitute for true lavender. While lavender has a long history of use for relaxation, stress relief, and supporting mood, there is little direct historical or scientific evidence specifically linking lavandin to support of the adrenal glands as an organ system. The connection to adrenal support comes from traditional holistic or naturopathic viewpoints, where calming or stress-reducing botanicals are believed to indirectly benefit adrenal function by helping the body respond to stress. However, lavandin’s primary historical uses focus on its fragrance, antiseptic, and mild calming properties rather than direct organ support.
Scientific studies on lavandin are limited, and most research focuses on its antimicrobial and anxiolytic (anxiety-reducing) properties. There is no robust clinical evidence in peer-reviewed literature directly supporting the use of lavandin to benefit adrenal gland health or function. Thus, while its use is rooted in tradition, particularly through association with lavender’s calming effects, its direct benefit to the adrenal glands remains largely unsubstantiated.
