Walnuts thrown away after eating are actually very useful

Walnut, also known as walnut, is widely distributed in Shanxi, Shandong, Hebei and other places in my country.

Most people know that walnut kernels are good for nourishing the kidneys and brain, but they don’t know that the green walnut skins, walnut shells and walnut inner skins that we throw away are also treasures. Green walnut peel, also known as Qinglongyi, has analgesic and antipruritic effects, and can be used for skin itching and other diseases. Drinking boiled walnut shells in water can cure pharyngitis, gastric ulcers and other diseases, but it is also a natural rolling material and polishing abrasive in industry.

The dry wooden diaphragm of the walnut kernel, which is also overlooked by us, is called the pith wood, also known as the nutcracker, walnut skin, and walnut skin. It looks like a butterfly, tastes bitter, is neutral in nature, enters the spleen and kidney meridians, has a very strong effect of strengthening the kidneys and astringing semen, and helps sleep. Clinically, it is mainly used to treat spermatorrhea, frequent urination, metrorrhagia, leucorrhea, diarrhea and other diseases.

The wood of the fenshi wood is one of the traditional medicines of the Uyghur ethnic group in Xinjiang. Uyghur doctors boil it and make tea to treat spermatorrhea due to kidney deficiency. When men work hard and are under great pressure during the day, they are prone to exhaustion and damage to their energy, which in turn damages their sperm. They are prone to nocturnal emission when they sleep at night. Fenxinmu can not only nourish the kidneys in a peaceful way, but also has an astringent effect. It can effectively treat male nocturnal emission and diarrhea.

The opening and closing of the bladder mainly depends on kidney qi. If the kidney qi is insufficient, the bladder qi transformation will be unfavorable. Therefore, symptoms such as frequent urination and urgency caused by chronic cystitis or urethritis can also be relieved by tonifying the kidney. It has been reported that taking Buzhong Yiqi Pills soaked in water with Fenxinmu is quite effective in treating frequent urination after prostate surgery. In addition, the wood of the fenxin wood can relieve waist and leg pain in the elderly and improve menstrual disorders and anemia in women. It has a relatively bitter nature and can promote diuresis and clear away heat. It also has a certain therapeutic effect on gonorrhea, hematuria, summer heat diarrhea, enuresis, metrorrhagia, deafness, and leucorrhea.

In recent years, some pharmacological studies have shown that the wood contains flavonoids, quinones, phenolic acids and other compounds. In addition to the kidney-tonifying effect, it also has antibacterial and antioxidant effects.

So how do you use distraction wood in your daily life? We can wash it and put it in a clean box, take out 3 to 5 grams each time and soak it in boiling water, once in the morning and evening. You can also grind it into powder and soak it in water to drink. In clinical practice, walnut shells, walnut wood and walnut kernels are also used to treat diabetes. Add water to 750ml and simmer for 60 minutes until 300ml of the decoction remains. Take out the walnut shells and walnut wood and take it once half an hour before each of the three meals. This can control blood sugar and urine sugar to a certain extent.

Although split wood is good, it is not suitable for everyone. People with weak spleen and stomach should be cautious when taking the product. If adverse reactions such as chest tightness, nausea, abdominal distension, diarrhea, etc. occur after taking the product, they should stop using it.
