  • Digestive

Identity and form

Tansy is Tanacetum vulgare aerial material or essential oil and may contain thujone; concentrated oral use presents substantial safety concern.

The label should identify the source, form, preparation, and active or marker amount when those details determine comparability.

What the evidence can answer

Human research has examined Tansy in relation to digestive function. The amount, source, preparation, population, comparator, and measured outcome determine whether a result applies to a finished product.

Current WQ evidence label: Insufficient human evidence. This label describes the present evidence context, not a promise of benefit.
