Synopsis

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

Agastache, commonly known as Korean mint or huò xiāng in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), has a historical background of use primarily for digestive and respiratory complaints rather than for stress directly. In TCM, Agastache is valued for its aromatic properties and is thought to harmonize the stomach, dispel dampness, and relieve nausea. However, some traditional practices consider that by supporting digestive health and promoting a sense of well-being, such herbs may indirectly help with symptoms associated with stress, such as indigestion or mild anxiety. There is minimal direct historical documentation specifically linking Agastache to the treatment of stress or anxiety as primary uses. From a scientific perspective, there is limited research on Agastache species for stress support. Some animal studies have explored the essential oils from Agastache for potential anxiolytic (anxiety-reducing) or sedative effects, but these are preliminary and not robust enough to support clinical recommendations. The majority of evidence for using Agastache to address stress remains rooted in traditional herbal use, with very modest direct support. Therefore, its use for stress is considered to be justified by tradition, but with weak supporting evidence.
