What are the effects and functions of the traditional Chinese medicine Tribulus terrestris?

Tribulus terrestris is a precious Chinese medicinal material. I believe many friends have heard of this name in daily life. Its medicinal value is incomparable to ordinary medicinal materials. Some medicines made from Tribulus terrestris as raw material also have very good effects in treating diseases. After all, what are the effects and functions of the traditional Chinese medicine Tribulus terrestris? Let me give you a brief introduction below.

1. Tribulus terrestris has a very good effect in treating and relieving hyperactivity of liver yang and dizziness. Taking some Tribulus terrestris appropriately can not only help us promote liver health, but also relieve some head symptoms. This medicine has a bitter taste and is used to descend and drain. It mainly enters the liver meridian and has the effect of calming the liver yang. It is used for symptoms such as hyperactivity of liver yang, dizziness, etc. and is often used together with liver-calming and yang-suppressing drugs such as Uncaria rhynchophylla, mother-of-pearl, and chrysanthemum. Wind-heat attacks the eyes, causing redness and cataracts. This herb is pungent in taste and can disperse wind-heat in the liver meridian and improve eyesight and remove cataracts. It is an important medicine for dispelling wind and improving eyesight. It is used to treat symptoms such as red, swollen and painful eyes caused by wind-heat, excessive tears and mucus, or cataract covering the eyes. It is often used together with chrysanthemum, vitex rotundifolia, cassia seed, and amaranth seed, such as Tribulus terrestris powder.

2. Tribulus terrestris can also treat symptoms such as chest and flank pain, breast pain, etc. This product is bitter, pungent and dispersing, and can soothe the liver and relieve depression, and it can also enter the blood and activate blood circulation. It is used to treat liver depression and qi stagnation, chest and flank distension and pain. It can be used together with liver-soothing and qi-regulating drugs such as bupleurum, cyperus rotundus, and green peel. If used to treat liver depression, milk blockage and breast pain, this product can be ground into powder and taken orally alone, or used in combination with pangolin, fenugreek and other menstruation-promoting and milk-inducing drugs. Symptoms such as chest and flank pain, breast pain, etc. are very harmful to our body. Therefore, once we have chest and flank pain, breast pain, etc., we must take some Tribulus terrestris in time, which can help us effectively relieve the condition.

I believe that through the above introduction, we all have a general understanding of the medicinal effects of Tribulus terrestris. We know that Tribulus terrestris has many medicinal effects. Appropriate use of Tribulus terrestris can not only help us relieve the symptoms of dizziness, but also treat and prevent some gynecological diseases.
