The first is the pharmacological action of Artemisia argyi. Folium Artemisiae Argyi has been an important medicinal material in traditional Chinese medicine for a long time. As an oral medicine, it is widely used to treat diseases. In modern times, the use of mugwort leaves is not limited to medicine, and mugwort leaves can be found in many fields. In addition to volatile oil, Folium Artemisiae Argyi also contains many other organic substances, which can effectively regulate the internal needs of the body.
The pharmacological effects of Folium Artemisiae Argyi mainly include antibacterial, antiviral, antiasthmatic, antitussive, expectorant, and enhancing immune function. I also use mugwort leaves to soak my feet in my daily life. Soaking feet with mugwort leaves can remove the cold and moisture in the body, and can also reduce fire, dispel deficiency fire and cold fire.
When mugwort leaves soak your feet, you should pay attention to slight sweating, but don't sweat. At the same time, be careful not to eat cold food and have a good rest. If you persist in this way for two to three days, the problems such as virtual fire and cold fire in your body will be effectively improved. It should be noted that Artemisia argyi is not suitable for soaking feet too many times. Too many foot baths can also cause dizziness, headache and emotional changes.
The dosage of wormwood also needs attention, and it must not be excessive. Because after a large number of oral mugwort preparations, there will be poisoning symptoms: dry throat, thirst, gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea and vomiting, followed by general weakness, dizziness and tinnitus, limb tremor and even spasm (caused by high excitement of the central nervous system), muscle relaxation, tension and fatigue, and even paralysis after spasm.
Because nerve reflex and blood vessels themselves are damaged, it will lead to uterine congestion, bleeding and even abortion in pregnant women. It can also cause metabolic disorder of liver cells, leading to toxic jaundice and hepatitis. Because it mainly acts on the central nervous system, amnesia, hallucinations and other sequelae often appear after recovery. Patients with chronic poisoning have symptoms such as hypersensitivity, ataxia, fantasy, neuritis, epileptic spasm and so on.
