The efficacy and side effects of honeysuckle

Mountain honey grass is a rare folk grass and a long-lived treasure of the ancient Miao village deep in the mountains of Yunnan Province. Also known as longevity tea, rock sugar grass, oolong grass root tea, and Yunnan longevity grass. Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" and "Compendium of Chinese Medicine" both have detailed records. What are the functions and effects of mountain honey grass and what are the taboos? Let’s learn about it together below.

1. The role of honeysuckle: Honeysuckle has many roles and effects. It has the functions of strengthening the spleen and nourishing blood, clearing away heat and removing fire, removing phlegm, relieving cough and reducing phlegm, relieving pain and harmonizing various medicines. It is used for spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, fatigue, shortness of breath, cough with sputum, abdominal pain, cramps in the limbs, pain, carbuncles and sores, and can reduce the toxic and side effects and potency of drugs. When used raw, it tastes sweet and slightly cold, and can reduce internal heat and eliminate toxins.

2. The effects of mountain honey grass: 1. Licorice has adrenal hormone-like effects. Licorice powder, licorice extract, glycyrrhizin and glycyrrhizic acid have the effect of promoting the secretion of potassium, sodium and water storage in normal humans and various animals, which is similar to the effect of deoxycorticosterone. Glycyrrhizin can significantly enhance and increase the efficacy of cortisone. 2. Anti-bacterial and immune-enhancing effects: The herbicidal acid has a certain inhibitory effect on granulomas in rat poison cotton, indoor formaldehyde edema, and subcutaneous granulomatous inflammation. 3. Effects on the digestive tract: Honeysuckle extract, Honeysuckle extract, Honeysuckle glycosides and Honeysuckle extract all have significant stretching effects on experimental ulcerative hemorrhoids in rats. 4. Anti-tumor effect: Glycyrrhizin and glycyrrhizin can cause histological rebellion against rat ascites, liver cancer and Ehrlich ascites tumor cells in mice.

3. Side effects of mountain honey grass: Although mountain honey grass has great effects, we still need to be careful about its side effects. Mountain honey grass contains glycyrrhizin and glycyrrhetinic acid. The intake of these two substances will reduce diuresis and reduce sodium excretion. If the sodium content in the body is too high, it is very easy to cause high blood pressure. If the water cannot be expelled through urine, excessive water will be stored and edema will occur.
