What is Trichosanthes? When I first heard someone tell me about Trichosanthes, I thought it was a kind of vegetable melon that we eat every day. Later, an old Chinese doctor told me that Fructus Trichosanthis is a kind of fruit that can be used as medicine. Trichosanthes kirilowii is a perennial climbing herb, which grows in the crevices of deep mountains and forests or thorny cliffs. After autumn harvest and drying, its fruits and roots are excellent medicinal materials.
Trichosanthes kirilowii is a commonly used Chinese herbal medicine. What is its efficacy and function? It is recorded in Compendium of Materia Medica that Fructus Trichosanthis belongs to the top grade of medicinal materials classification, and its medicinal value is clearing away heat and resolving phlegm, benefiting qi and relaxing bowels. If there are symptoms such as excessive internal heat, constipation, cough and excessive phlegm, it can be decocted and taken, and the symptoms can be obviously improved after about 3 times. Therefore, it is really not an exaggeration to call it the top grade of medicinal materials. I think Trichosanthes kirilowii has low requirements for planting environment, high yield and high medicinal value.
The efficacy and function of Trichosanthes kirilowii, medical experiments have proved that Trichosanthes kirilowii also has antibacterial and anticancer effects. For modern people who smell canceration, taking Trichosanthes kirilowii can enhance its antibacterial and anticancer effects. Trichosanthes kirilowii is rich in nutrients and trace elements, so it can not only reduce the three highs, but also slim down and beautify the body and improve the immune system of the human body. It's killing two birds with one stone.
