Synopsis
Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1
Siberian Solomon's Seal (Polygonatum sibiricum) is traditionally used in East Asian herbal medicine, particularly within Chinese medicine, for its tonic properties. It is often classified as an adaptogen, a group of herbs thought to help the body resist stressors and maintain homeostasis, which indirectly relates to supporting adrenal function. The root of Solomon’s Seal is traditionally believed to nourish yin, moisten dryness, and support the body during periods of fatigue or stress—conditions that are sometimes linked, in traditional frameworks, to adrenal health. However, there is a lack of robust scientific research specifically investigating Siberian Solomon’s Seal for direct effects on adrenal glands or adrenal hormones. Most available studies focus on its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, or general immunomodulatory effects rather than adrenal support per se. Thus, while its use for adrenal support is justified in traditional medicine systems, there is little direct scientific validation for this specific application, and the evidence for its efficacy in supporting the adrenal glands is weak, based primarily on historical usage rather than clinical research.
