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

Typhonium, particularly Typhonium flagelliforme (sometimes called "rodent tuber"), has a history of use in traditional medicine in Southeast Asia, especially in Indonesia and Malaysia. It has been used for a variety of health concerns, including as a traditional remedy for cancer and to "cleanse the blood," which is sometimes interpreted as supporting the lymphatic system. However, there is little to no robust scientific research specifically validating its effects on the lymphatic system. Most available studies focus on its potential anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties, often based on in vitro or animal models, and do not directly assess lymphatic function or health. The traditional use for "blood cleansing" or "detoxification" is common in herbal medicine, but these terms are not well-defined in biomedical science and may not directly correlate with actual lymphatic system support. Therefore, while typhonium is traditionally used for general health and detox purposes, its specific use for supporting the lymphatic system is based on traditional beliefs rather than confirmed scientific evidence.
