Synopsis
Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2
Tea (mixed) has traditionally been used in various cultures as a remedy for dizziness, though this use is primarily based on anecdotal and historical practices rather than rigorous scientific validation. In many traditional medicine systems, including Chinese and herbal folk medicine, mixtures of teas—sometimes including green tea, black tea, or herbal infusions—have been consumed with the belief that they can "clear the head," improve circulation, or settle the stomach, all of which are associated with alleviating dizziness. The rationale is often linked to the mild stimulant effects of caffeine (present in many teas), which may temporarily increase alertness and reduce sensations of lightheadedness in some individuals. Herbal teas, such as ginger or peppermint, are also traditionally believed to help with dizziness related to digestive disturbances or motion sickness. However, clinical evidence directly supporting the use of mixed tea preparations for treating dizziness is very limited. Most scientific studies focus on individual components (such as ginger for motion sickness), not on mixed tea per se, and results are mixed. Therefore, while the traditional use is established, especially for mild, non-specific dizziness, robust scientific support is lacking, and mixed tea should not be considered a primary treatment for serious or persistent dizziness.
