In the prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicine, Lycium barbarum is the most commonly used ingredient in traditional Chinese medicine, and it is also a plant with strong vitality and convenient use. Chinese medicine says that Lycium barbarum has many functions, which can not only improve eyesight and refresh, but also promote blood circulation and prevent arteriosclerosis. At the same time, Lycium barbarum has antioxidant function, which can protect liver and nourish kidney, enhance immunity, prevent Alzheimer's disease and relieve Alzheimer's disease.

Lycium barbarum has many functions, which can not only improve eyesight and nourish heart, but also protect liver and kidney. Chen Wangquan, a former chairman of the Chinese Medicine Association of the Republic of China and a Chinese medicine practitioner, pointed out that Chinese medicine has long been called "health-preserving medlar" and is often regarded as a good medicine for nourishing, recuperating and resisting aging. As early as 2 17, the drugs recorded in Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica in the later Han Dynasty were divided into three categories: traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine and folk prescription, and Lycium barbarum was marked in the category of traditional Chinese medicine, indicating that it has good medicinal properties and is harmless for a long time.

Lycium barbarum is a non-toxic and harmless health medicine.

Lycium barbarum can basically be used in three parts: Lycium barbarum leaves can be used to make "Lycium barbarum tea" for drinking; The red fruit "Lycium barbarum" can be used for cooking or making tea; Lycium barbarum root, also known as "Lycium barbarum peel", is generally used as a medicinal material, so it can be called "making the best use of everything". And long-term consumption of Lycium barbarum or drinking Lycium barbarum tea will not have side effects.

In particular, Lycium barbarum fruit is rich in various nutrients, such as ascorbic acid, β-carotene, polysaccharide, lutein, zeaxanthin, vitamins B and E, and trace minerals such as zinc, copper, calcium and selenium, which are traditionally used to treat kidney problems, purify blood and improve sexual endurance.

Super healthy food protects nerves.

Dr. Chen Wangquan emphasized that in the traditional Chinese medicine concept, Lycium barbarum is a super food that can protect physical and mental health, but now more research points out that Lycium barbarum can also protect nerves; Because of its high antioxidant capacity, Lycium barbarum has been proved to improve vision, prevent cancer and increase immune response in the past. Now, researchers believe that Lycium barbarum may also isolate the brain from toxic amyloid β-protein.
