Synopsis

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

Sandy Everlasting, also known as Helichrysum arenarium, has a long history of use in traditional herbal medicine, particularly in parts of Europe and Asia. In folk remedies, it has been employed to address various skin conditions, including itching and minor irritations. The flowers contain flavonoids and other phytochemicals thought to have anti-inflammatory and soothing properties, which may explain its application to itchy skin in traditional contexts.

However, scientific research specifically investigating Sandy Everlasting for the treatment or relief of itching (pruritus) is limited. Most of the available studies focus on its hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, and mild antimicrobial effects, with little direct evidence for its efficacy against itching in clinical settings. The use for itching is therefore best described as traditional, supported by ethnobotanical records and anecdotal reports rather than robust clinical trials or pharmacological studies. Thus, while its traditional use is well-documented, the scientific validation for its effectiveness in treating itching remains weak.
