Synopsis

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

Abrotanum (commonly known as Southernwood) has a history of use in traditional herbal and homeopathic medicine. In classical homeopathy, Abrotanum is sometimes used for conditions associated with excessive appetite, especially in cases where there is a paradoxical loss of weight despite increased eating. However, the primary evidence for its use in regulating or addressing excessive appetite is anecdotal and rooted in homeopathic materia medica, rather than in robust clinical or pharmacological research. There are no substantial peer-reviewed studies or scientific trials that validate its efficacy or mechanism for modulating appetite.

In summary, Abrotanum’s application for excessive appetite is based mainly on traditional and homeopathic literature. The rating reflects a low level of evidence due to lack of scientific studies and reliance on tradition and case reports.
