What are the medicinal values ​​of Rhodiola rosea?

Rhodiola rosea is a traditional Chinese medicinal material with very high medicinal value. It not only can replenish qi, but also can improve our intelligence very well. Therefore, it is a very good medicinal material for some elderly people. The most important thing is that the side effects are not that high, so it will not damage the health of the body. Moreover, this medicinal material mainly grows on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Therefore, this medicine is very capable of resisting the influence of bad environment. If you drink this medicine frequently, you can regulate our lung system very well.

The application of Rhodiola rosea has a long history. More than two thousand years ago, people in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau used it as medicine to strengthen their bodies and resist the influence of adverse environments. People often use it to boil water or soak it in wine to eliminate fatigue or resist the cold in the mountains. At the same time, it prevents diseases, improves health, nourishes and prolongs life. Because of its magical effects of strengthening the body, replenishing qi and blood, and nourishing yin and benefiting the lungs, Tibetan medicine in all dynasties has regarded it as one of the "three auspicious treasures". If the human body does not have enough oxygen, symptoms of hypoxia will appear, including headache, fatigue, difficulty breathing, dizziness, etc. Severe or sudden symptoms may lead to coma or even death. Generally speaking, this phenomenon often occurs in plateau areas, leading to altitude sickness and even some fatal complications. Hypoxia is a stressful stimulus that causes a series of stress responses in the body. The adaptogenic effect of Rhodiola rosea can enhance the body's nonspecific resistance to harmful stimuli and strengthen the body's adaptability. By enhancing oxygen diffusion in cells in the body, or oxygen utilization efficiency and antioxidant capacity, it helps improve the body's adaptability to hypoxic stimulation.
