2. It is certain that Panax notoginseng powder can be taken for a long time, but it does not mean that it will be fine for everyone no matter how they take it. As early as in ancient times, doctors realized in clinical practice that Panax notoginseng is not suitable for all bleeding diseases. There is a saying that Panax notoginseng should not be used for diseases that cause severe damage to vital energy and depletion of yin and yang. Xiao Jing once talked about this in "Xuanqi Jiuzheng Lun. Medicinal Properties": "Lacquer, in modern times, is produced from Danzhou in southwestern Guangdong. It is very effective in treating military wounds, women's hemorrhage, and men's sudden blood loss without loss of vital energy. The effect is immediate. If the patient suffers from consumptive blood loss and exhaustion of yin and yang, the source should be found and treated fundamentally, and the blood should be nourished. Misuse of this medicine will cause dryness and blockage, which will cause harm." Because Panax notoginseng tastes sweet and slightly bitter and is warm in nature, it can easily consume body fluids and cause yin deficiency if used improperly.

It is generally eaten raw for health purposes, and cooked Panax notoginseng powder is mainly for blood tonic.
