The four functions of Gastrodia elata are affirmed by Chinese medicine, and many people have enjoyed them.
People are weak in middle age, especially after a certain age, and are prone to various problems. For Chinese medicine, Chinese herbal medicine can provide great help when there are physical problems. I believe many people have heard of Gastrodia elata, a Chinese herbal medicine. Gastrodia elata is a Chinese herbal medicine with many functions for middle-aged and elderly people. So what is the specific effect?

First, the main efficacy of Gastrodia elata

First, gastrodia elata is rich in carbohydrates and various sugars. Eating gastrodia elata can provide energy for the body.

Secondly, Gastrodia elata plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of various cardiovascular diseases, because Gastrodia elata can increase cerebral blood flow, thereby reducing cerebrovascular resistance, and can slightly contract cerebral blood vessels and increase coronary blood flow, thus preventing cardiovascular diseases. In addition, Gastrodia elata can also lower blood pressure and play an important role in preventing myocardial ischemia.

Third, Gastrodia elata also has a very obvious protective effect on the human brain nervous system. Women who eat gastrodia elata can get a very obvious effect of enhancing memory and optic nerve.

Fourth, many people also know that Gastrodia elata also has a certain sedative effect. Many drugs for neurasthenia contain gastrodin, which can inhibit the central excitement caused by caffeine and has a very good sedative effect.

It can be seen that Gastrodia elata has many uses and is very popular with women. However, although gastrodia elata has so many effects, it also needs to pay attention to many things when eating, so what matters need to be paid attention to?

Second, the matters needing attention of Gastrodia elata

First of all, although Gastrodia elata has many effects, many people may have dizziness, nausea and other adverse reactions after eating Gastrodia elata, and some people may even have symptoms of edema, and some people may have symptoms of hair loss after eating Gastrodia elata. Therefore, you must be prepared to consult the relevant medical staff before taking Gastrodia elata.

Secondly, gastrodia elata has certain toxicity. Generally speaking, more than 40 grams of gastrodia elata is enough to cause poisoning, and the incubation period of poisoning is about one hour to six hours. Wu, a famous doctor in the Qing Dynasty, once said, "You should not eat Gastrodia elata unless you have a real stroke", which means Gastrodia elata.

Thirdly, gastrodia elata should not be fried for too long, because gastrodin, the main component of gastrodia elata, is easily volatilized after heating. If the frying time is too long, it is easy to volatilize and lose its effect. Therefore, it is best to slice or grind gastrodia elata into powder, and then add other decoctions to gastrodia elata. Only in this way can Gastrodia elata play its role.

Finally, Gastrodia elata is best eaten together with other drugs or ingredients, because the effect of using Gastrodia elata alone is not very good. It is best to pay attention to the dosage when taking Gastrodia elata alone, and it is best to take it under the guidance of a doctor.

The above is about the efficacy and contraindications of Gastrodia elata. For women, Gastrodia elata is a traditional Chinese medicine that is often contacted, so it must be treated with caution.
