Modern people have sub-health problems because of the increasing pressure of life and work, so more and more people have joined the team of health preservation, among which eating Chinese medicine is the most common practice. Panax notoginseng, as a common Chinese herbal medicine, is also at the top of the health care team, and even leads to the saying that "diseases can be treated, but not diseases". Is Sanqi really that "god"? Panax notoginseng is the first of "promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis". What's the role? Under normal circumstances, Notoginseng can be excavated within three to seven years after sowing, because each plant has three petioles and each petiole has seven leaves, so it is named Notoginseng, and Li Shizhen, the father of ancient pharmacy, also called it "gold does not change". Traditional Chinese medicine believes that Sanqi has six major effects. 1. Hemostasis: Notoginseng Radix can promote the aggregation of platelets in the blood, and has hemostatic effect. At the same time, it also has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, so it can treat the symptoms of gastrorrhagia caused by chronic gastritis and gastric ulcer, and the cure rate is over 90%. General traumatic bleeding can also be stopped by external application of notoginseng. At present, Panax notoginseng is widely used to treat traumatic hemorrhage and endotoxemia. 2. Enriching blood: Mice were irradiated with radiation and injected with Panax notoginseng saponins for 6 days. The results show that Panax notoginseng can promote the proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells and improve the problem of acute hemorrhagic anemia in experimental mice. At present, it is also believed that Panax notoginseng can promote the proliferation and release of blood cells and has the function of enriching blood and hematopoiesis. 3. Anti-aging: Proper consumption of Notoginseng Radix can remove lipid peroxide and increase superoxide dismutase in the body, so it can organize cells, reduce facial wrinkles and age spots, and effectively delay the aging speed. Fourth, protect the liver: Sanqi mainly belongs to the liver and stomach meridians of the human body. Six days after injection of Notoginseng Radix extract into experimental rats, it was found that Notoginseng Radix could inhibit the liver injury caused by carbon tetrachloride and promote the repair of liver DNA and protein. 5. Anti-tumor: Panax Notoginseng saponins in Panax Notoginseng can improve the phagocytosis of macrophages, increase the total number of white blood cells, enhance human immunity, inhibit the activity of tumor cells, inhibit tumor cell differentiation or promote tumor cell apoptosis. 6. Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular effects: Panax notoginseng has the function of regulating blood sugar in two directions, and has a good therapeutic effect on hyperlipidemia and high cholesterol. At the same time, it can dilate blood vessels, effectively lower blood pressure, and improve the lack of blood oxygen in the heart and brain. These "Sanqi" are not necessarily "Sanqi", because of their remarkable curative effect, which is deeply loved by middle-aged and elderly people. However, a company in Beijing discovered the business opportunity of Sanqi. They package Panax Notoginseng, emphasizing that Panax Notoginseng can treat 17 diseases, and the main sales target is middle-aged and elderly people. Later, some media also exposed this matter. In fact, "Sanqi" cannot be equated with "Sanqi". Notoginseng sold by a company in Beijing is actually a kind of tea substitute for Notoginseng, and its main component is the extract of stems and leaves of Notoginseng, not the true powder of roots and whiskers of Notoginseng. It remains to be seen how many panax notoginseng there are. At present, Panax notoginseng is also listed as food by the State Food and Drug Administration of the United States, which is often referred to as health food. In addition, the statement that Sanqi has the efficacy of * * * is also false, because no Chinese medicine has explained to patients that Sanqi is a "magic medicine". Deng Cong, deputy director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Nansha Hospital affiliated to Guangzhou First Hospital, also stressed that Panax notoginseng has remarkable effects of enriching blood, promoting blood circulation and stopping bleeding. If the efficacy of Panax notoginseng is exaggerated, it is generally necessary to be vigilant. Sanqi is good, but it is not advisable to eat more. A patient with liver cirrhosis in Wuhan showed symptoms of gastrointestinal bleeding after taking Panax notoginseng for one month, and Aunt Li, 50, showed symptoms of abdominal distension and discomfort after taking Panax notoginseng given by a friend for a long time. . . This tells us that there is no harm in taking three or seven hundred by mistake. 1. Don't overdo it. People with normal constitution should take less than 9 grams of panax notoginseng every day, and it is recommended to take it in batches. 2. Notoginseng has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, so taking Notoginseng during menstruation may lead to an increase in menstrual blood. 3. Pregnant women should not eat Sanqi during pregnancy, but you can consider taking Sanqi for postpartum blood supplement. 4. Sanqihua is slightly cool, and eating Sanqihua during a cold will aggravate cold discomfort. People who are allergic to Panax notoginseng had better not eat Panax notoginseng, so as not to cause skin itching, redness and other discomfort. Notoginseng is easy to buy now, so everyone must take Notoginseng according to the symptoms, pay attention to the contraindications of Notoginseng, and avoid taking Notoginseng by mistake and causing harm to the health.
