I believe many friends are familiar with Astragalus. Astragalus is a very common Chinese medicinal material in our daily life, and it is not expensive. In addition to being used as a medicine in traditional Chinese medicine, astragalus is also an indispensable component of various dietary therapies. Although Astragalus is common, we may not understand its effects. Today I will introduce to you the medicinal value of Astragalus.

Astragalus is the most basic Chinese medicine for improving the immunity of the lungs and respiratory system. It can be used for sweating caused by low immunity. It can also be used to replenish qi and enhance spleen function and low metabolic capacity.

Astragalus is a replenisher of Qi. For example, lack of energy in speaking, walking, and pale complexion are all manifestations of spleen and lung Qi deficiency. Astragalus can replenish the qi of the whole body. For example, Astragalus can be used for qi deficiency in the upper body, and it can also be used for qi deficiency in the lower body.

When used raw, Astragalus has the effects of invigorating Qi and strengthening the exterior, promoting diuresis and reducing swelling, detoxifying, and promoting tissue regeneration. It is suitable for symptoms such as spontaneous sweating, night sweats, blood stasis, edema, carbuncles that do not ulcerate or ulcers that do not heal for a long time. Honey-roasted Astragalus has the effects of replenishing qi, nourishing blood, and benefiting the middle. It is suitable for internal injuries, fatigue, spleen deficiency, diarrhea, qi deficiency, blood deficiency, and qi deficiency.

Astragalus has the effects of reducing blood viscosity, reducing thrombosis, lowering blood pressure, protecting the heart, regulating blood sugar bidirectionally, resisting free radical damage, anti-aging, anti-hypoxia, anti-tumor, and enhancing the body's immunity. It can be used to treat heart disease, hypertension, diabetes and other diseases. Astragalus can also dilate blood vessels, improve skin blood circulation and nutritional status, so it is effective for chronic ulcers that do not heal for a long time.

The above content introduces the medicinal value of Astragalus in great detail. I believe that friends who have read it will have a deeper understanding of Astragalus. As one of the traditional Chinese medicinal materials, Astragalus has a very high medicinal value. Regularly drinking water soaked with Astragalus can not only replenish qi, but also has a certain therapeutic effect on high blood pressure and other diseases.
