Synopsis

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

Herb Robert (Geranium robertianum) has been used traditionally in European folk medicine for a variety of ailments, including as a general tonic, for wound healing, and to support the immune system. Its use for dizziness is primarily based on traditional herbal practices rather than scientific validation. Historical herbal texts sometimes mention Herb Robert as being helpful for symptoms like weakness or lightheadedness, which can overlap with what is described as dizziness, but there is no clear or consistent documentation specifically targeting dizziness as a primary indication.

There are no well-designed clinical trials or pharmacological studies directly supporting the efficacy of Herb Robert for treating or alleviating dizziness. The plant contains compounds such as tannins, flavonoids, and geraniin, which may have antioxidant or mild astringent effects, but no scientific link has been established between these constituents and relief of dizziness. Most modern herbal references do not list dizziness as a validated indication for Herb Robert. Therefore, its use for this purpose should be regarded as traditional and lacking robust evidence, with an evidence rating of 1 to reflect minimal anecdotal or historical support but no scientific substantiation.
