The role of mugwort

The role of mugwort

The annual Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon. I believe that when people talk about the Dragon Boat Festival, the first thing that comes to mind is mugwort. In fact, mugwort is widely used in daily life. Mugwort has the effects of warming the meridians, stopping bleeding, and relieving obesity. It can also expel grubs. For some women, mugwort can also regulate irregular menstruation and treat abnormal leucorrhea.

Mugwort is also the most common material in acupuncture. So what are the health benefits of mugwort? In what aspects of daily life is mugwort widely used? Let's take a brief look at the health benefits of mugwort.

Regulate Qi and blood, expel cold and dampness; warm the meridians, stop bleeding, and stabilize the fetus. It is used to treat cold pain in the heart and abdomen, diarrhea, convulsions, chronic dysentery, vomiting and epistaxis, bleeding, irregular menstruation, metrorrhagia, leucorrhea, fetal movement disorder, carbuncle, and scabies.

Mugwort, also known as fragrant wormwood, Qi wormwood, and mugwort, is bitter, pungent, and warm in nature, and enters the spleen, liver, and kidney meridians. It can dispel cold and dampness, warm the meridians and stop bleeding. It is suitable for bleeding and abdominal pain caused by deficiency and cold. It has obvious therapeutic effects on women's menstrual disorders, abdominal pain, and metrorrhagia caused by deficiency and cold. It is a good gynecological medicine. Now is the time when mugwort is on the market. It can be made into mugwort rice cakes, and processed into various dishes and medicinal foods.

Antibacterial effect: Moxa stick fumigation can also reduce the bacteria on burn wounds. After guinea pig tuberculosis was treated with moxibustion, the disease progressed more slowly and the lesions were lighter, especially in the later stages of the disease. In addition, the phagocytic response of reticuloendothelial cells was enhanced, but the degree of enhancement was not as significant as when the animals acquired immunity. The phagocytic function of the reticuloendothelial cells of guinea pigs was consistent with the tuberculosis lesions of the internal organs. When the liver and spleen were damaged by the disease, the phagocytic function decreased.

In addition, it also has antifungal effects, antiasthmatic effects, choleretic effects, platelet aggregation inhibition, hemostatic effects, effects on the gastrointestinal tract and uterus, effects on the cardiovascular system, anti-allergic effects, etc.

The above is a brief introduction to the effects of mugwort. I hope it can help all my friends. In general, the health-preserving effects of mugwort are very powerful. Therefore, you can often use mugwort in your daily life to maintain your health and better promote your health.
