Can patients with renal failure eat Cistanche deserticola?

Many people don’t know what Cistanche is, but some people who are more familiar with traditional Chinese medicine know that Cistanche is a very precious food ingredient and it has great benefits for both men and women. It can be used to treat male impotence, premature ejaculation, and infertility in both men and women. However, taking Cistanche requires a doctor's diagnosis. So can people with renal failure take Cistanche? Let’s take a look at this question now!

1. It is warm in nature, sweet, sour and salty in taste. It is not only suitable for people with kidney deficiency and impotence, but also for patients with spermatorrhea and premature ejaculation due to weak kidney qi. The "Shennong Bencao Jing" written more than 2,000 years ago recorded that "Cistanche deserticola benefits essence and qi". "Rihuazi Bencao" also said: "It can treat male spermatorrhea." If Cistanche deserticola is taken together with placenta, leek seeds, yam, chestnuts and other foods, it will be more effective.

2. Cistanche has extremely high medicinal value and is the highest-grade medicine among the more than 60 tonic Chinese medicines discovered in China. It is also the only tonic among all tonics that has a "warming and tonic" effect. It has great tonic effects on male kidneys, testicles, penis, corpus cavernosum and other sexual organs, and has an immediate effect on impotence and premature ejaculation, and its effects are as effective as magic.

3. Cistanche deserticola warms and nourishes women's kidney yang, making them have sufficient kidney qi, relieve their shortness of breath, and eliminate facial spots. The complexion is fair and bright, and the skin is delicate.

4. Cistanche deserticola can significantly increase the speed of small intestine propulsion, shorten the defecation time, and facilitate excretion. It has a real intestinal moisturizing and laxative effect. It is especially suitable for the elderly, postpartum women and the weak and sick with stubborn constipation. Of course, it is also more suitable for constipation in the general population.

5. Cistanche deserticola improves memory, prevents and treats Alzheimer's disease, protects nerve cells, inhibits apoptosis, and at the same time promotes the growth and repair of nerve cells and improves cerebral circulation.

6. Clinically, international aging model tests have proven that Cistanche deserticola not only protects aging bone marrow mononuclear cells and reduces death, but also significantly promotes bone marrow cell proliferation, thereby delaying aging.

The above introduces some questions about whether Cistanche can be eaten for renal failure. Of course, it can be eaten, but it needs to be under the guidance of an expert doctor. Moreover, Cistanche has many functions. At this time, patients with other symptoms can go to the hospital for examination and take it under the guidance of a doctor, but do not rush to take Chinese medicine.
