Whole crown daisy,
does it really help with Improved sleep quality and sleep onset?

30-Second Summary
?
Evidence Grade ? · Safety caution
Crown daisy has never been tested in humans for sleep quality or sleep onset in any administered form
Crown daisy is generally safe in ordinary food amounts, but people with Asteraceae allergy can develop oral or skin symptoms. Stop eating it if a reaction occurs.
What the
research shows
The grade is ?. No human study was found that administered Glebionis coronaria as whole food, juice, extract, or a mixture and measured sleep quality, sleep onset, or insomnia symptoms. A brief classical record cannot establish a human sleep effect, so there is no score.
What the
ads claim
Taxonomic family membership or one historical phrase cannot be converted into shorter sleep onset in humans. Species, plant part, formulation, and measured sleep outcome must all match.

  • On 2026-08-02, PubMed exact query 「(("Glebionis coronaria"[Title/Abstract] OR "Chrysanthemum coronarium"[Title/Abstract] OR "crown daisy"[Title/Abstract]) AND (sleep[Title/Abstract] OR insomnia[Title/Abstract] OR "sleep onset"[Title/Abstract]))」 found 0 eligible human studies after excluding botany, chemistry, agriculture, and animal records.
  • On 2026-08-02, ClinicalTrials.gov, WHO ICTRP, UMIN-CTR, and ChiCTR searches combining the species names with sleep and insomnia terms found 0 eligible registrations.
  • On 2026-08-02, 37 searches across Korean, Japanese, Chinese, and international databases found 0 human sleep-outcome studies using whole crown daisy, juice, extract, or mixtures.
  • Bencao Gangmu, juan 26, gives one short line saying crown daisy settles heart qi, nourishes the spleen and stomach, and dispels phlegm-fluid. The same entry also warns that excess intake can oppress the chest.
  • Li Shizhen stated that the plant entered the materia medica only with the Song-era Jiayou Bencao. Gerard's Corne Marigold was Chrysanthemum segetum, a different species, and was excluded.
  • Verdict 351 is C with 54 points for a Chrysanthemum zawadskii extract and knee symptoms. It concerns a different species, formulation, and outcome and does not support crown-daisy sleep efficacy.

01

What the research actually shows

It has not been tested in humans. No paper or registered trial was found that administered Glebionis coronaria, formerly Chrysanthemum coronarium, as whole food, juice, extract, or a mixture and measured PSQI, sleep-onset latency, total sleep time, or insomnia symptoms. Retrieved records concerned phytochemistry, antimicrobial activity, agriculture, or animals. Verdicts exist for other Asteraceae species, but not for sleep effects of crown daisy itself. This verdict concerns the food itself, not an extract.

02

Why this is classified as ?

No human study measured sleep quality or sleep onset after crown-daisy intake, so the grade is ? and the score is null.

Counterpoint. The brief classical record is retained as cultural context, not used as an efficacy result.

Rejudgment record. Cross-check applied — Thirty-seven multilingual searches found no human study administering crown daisy and measuring sleep or sleep onset

Sub-claim grades by effect

This ingredient is marketed for several effects. A single overall grade blends strong and weak claims together, so each effect is graded separately here. The overall grade reflects the strongest disconfirming or core claim.

Effect (sub-claim)GradeBasis
Improved sleep quality from whole crown daisy?No human study measured this outcome.
Shorter sleep onset from whole crown daisy?No human study measured this outcome.
Human sleep effect of crown-daisy extract?No extract study measured human sleep outcomes either.

Cross-check — Codex and Claude

This verdict was drafted by Codex through literature review and source-existence checks, cross-checked through blind grading and adversarial audit, and settled by reapplying the methodology boundary rules. Cases with split grades were resolved through rejudgment.

What this document does and does not do

Chamgap is an information source. It reports what research has and has not confirmed; it does not tell readers what to take or buy. That decision belongs to readers and, when needed, medical or legal professionals. This verdict reflects literature available up to the search date and may change as new research appears. Nothing here is medical advice.
