Synopsis

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

China Rose (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) has been traditionally used in various systems of folk medicine, such as Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine, primarily for its purported benefits in treating respiratory ailments, including lung congestion and coughs. Historical records and ethnobotanical surveys indicate that decoctions and infusions made from the flowers or leaves have been administered to alleviate symptoms of cough, bronchial irritation, and mild congestion. However, the scientific evidence supporting these uses is minimal to nonexistent. A few preclinical studies have investigated the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, but these studies do not specifically address its efficacy in clearing lung congestion or improving respiratory function in humans. No high-quality clinical trials have validated its use for this indication. Therefore, while the use of China Rose for lung congestion is grounded in tradition, it lacks robust scientific validation, and its effectiveness for this specific condition remains unproven.
