What are the effects and functions of golden nanmu

Golden nanmu is very beautiful. Many people think that this kind of wood is very beautiful and has a strong ornamental effect. However, basically few people know that golden nanmu is also a Chinese medicinal material. However, this kind of Chinese medicinal material usually needs to be taken with other medicinal materials, and it is rarely taken alone. In this way, the medicinal value of this medicinal material will become better. It can treat many chronic diseases and have an anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effect.

Effects:

First, it is also a good medicine for curing diseases and eliminating troubles. It can be used in combination with other Chinese medicines, or used alone as an independent medicinal ingredient. It can generally treat the following diseases: cholera, stomach disease, pus discharge from the ear (otitis media), athlete's foot, cholera cramps, etc.

Second, the fragrance of nanxiang can prolong people's life. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine: aromatic things can invigorate the spleen and eliminate dampness, open the orifices and wake up the brain, and raise clearness and eliminate turbidity. Living in a room decorated with nanmu for a long time, accompanied by fragrant nanmu furniture, the lingering and subtle fragrance emitted by the golden nanmu can play the role of aromatically removing dampness, invigorating the spleen and eliminating turbidity.

Third, it ranks first among the four famous trees in China, namely, nanmu, catalpa, zelkova and camphor, and is known as China's "national wood". Nanmu has a fresh fragrance. It is a tall tree that can reach a height of more than ten meters and a breast diameter of up to 1 meter. It is a neutral to slightly negative tree species with deep roots, a long lifespan and a slow growth rate. Nanmu wood is warm in nature, does not warp or crack, has moderate hardness and excellent toughness, so it can be used for many purposes. In ancient times, national altar vessels and magnificent buildings were all built with nanmu, which is truly the "pillar of the country".

Fourth, literati’s plaything: In feudal society, nanmu could only be a luxury for the royal family and nobles. Ordinary literati and scholars turned their preference for nanmu to making small household furniture and stationery toys.

Phoebe nanmu is a very precious and high-quality wood, and its growth pattern makes it a late bloomer (the golden stage of vigorous growth takes 60 years). Because the wood has a very strong luster (especially when planed, there are obvious bright spots, which some people call it golden nanmu), even if it is not painted, it will become brighter with use. The bark is thin with dark dot-shaped lenticels; there is a black annular layer where the inner bark meets the wood. Since nanmu trees were mostly large in size in the past, and had few straight knots, smooth texture and were not easy to deform, and would not rot or get eaten for thousands of years, it was ranked first among the white woods besides hardwoods, and its wood value was also higher than some hardwoods.
