Synopsis

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

Honey loquat syrup has a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for soothing the throat, relieving cough, and supporting respiratory health. The primary ingredients—honey and extracts from the loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) leaf—are believed in TCM to moisten the lungs, dissolve phlegm, and ease symptoms of upper respiratory tract infections. While its use is well-established in Chinese herbal tradition, there is limited scientific evidence specifically validating honey loquat syrup for the treatment or support of sinus infections (sinusitis). Some of its components have demonstrated mild anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and soothing effects in laboratory or animal studies, but clinical trials in humans are lacking. Most available evidence is anecdotal or based on traditional practices rather than rigorous scientific evaluation. Overall, while honey loquat syrup may provide symptomatic relief, such as soothing throat irritation that often accompanies sinus infections, its direct effect on sinus infection pathogens or inflammation has not been conclusively demonstrated in scientific literature.
