Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Luo San is primarily used within traditional medicine systems, such as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), to support the Heart, especially in cases labeled as "Heart weakness." In TCM, the Heart is seen not only as a physical organ but also as a center for mental and emotional well-being. Luo San is believed to invigorate blood, calm the spirit, and strengthen the Heart’s function. However, the rationale for its use is rooted in traditional diagnostic frameworks and energetic concepts rather than modern biomedical sciences.

There is little to no scientific evidence available in peer-reviewed literature that specifically validates Luo San’s effect on heart function or cardiovascular health as understood by contemporary medicine. Most of the support for its use comes from centuries-old texts, case studies, and practitioner experience in herbal medicine, rather than controlled clinical trials. Thus, while Luo San has a historical basis for supporting the Heart in traditional medicine, its efficacy and safety for treating heart weakness have not been substantiated by modern research. Users should exercise caution and consult with healthcare professionals before using Luo San for this purpose.
