Synopsis

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

Scleranthus annus is primarily known as one of the Bach flower remedies, a system of flower essences developed by Dr. Edward Bach in the 1930s. In the Bach system, Scleranthus is recommended for people who struggle with indecision and inner conflict, which may overlap with symptoms seen in anxiety disorders. However, this use is rooted in traditional and homeopathic practices rather than scientific research. There are no clinical studies or robust scientific evidence supporting the efficacy of Scleranthus annus for anxiety disorders. The Bach remedies, including Scleranthus, are based on anecdotal reports and the holistic philosophy of Dr. Bach rather than empirical trials. Systematic reviews and scientific assessments of Bach flower remedies, in general, have found little to no evidence that they are more effective than placebo for anxiety or related emotional conditions. Thus, Scleranthus annus is used for anxiety based on historical tradition within the Bach flower remedy system, not on validated scientific findings.
