Synopsis

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

Night-Blooming Cereus (often referring to species such as Selenicereus grandiflorus) is primarily known in herbalism and traditional medicine systems, particularly within homeopathy and certain folk herbal practices. Its use for emotional sensitivity or related emotional conditions is based mostly on traditional and anecdotal reports, rather than robust scientific research. In homeopathic tradition, Night-Blooming Cereus is sometimes included in remedies purported to support the heart (both physically and emotionally) and to address symptoms such as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or a "sensitive" emotional state. These uses are mentioned in historical materia medicas and herbal compendia, but are not substantiated by clinical trials or modern pharmacological studies.

There is no well-established scientific evidence to support the efficacy of Night-Blooming Cereus for treating or supporting emotional sensitivity. The available literature does not provide controlled studies or clinical data regarding its effects on emotional health. As a result, while traditional use exists, the overall quality and quantity of supporting evidence is very limited, meriting a low evidence rating.
