The benefits of eating Cistanche deserticola

Cistanche is a fungus that grows in the shade on the mountains. It has a relatively high medicinal value, but the quantity of this thing is small and it is difficult to pick. Therefore, when we buy Cistanche, we need to correctly utilize its medicinal value. We usually eat Cistanche, which is very good for nourishing the kidneys and strengthening yang, as well as relieving hearing loss and tooth loss. It is recommended that everyone eat it.

Cistanche is a mild tonic, which is mild but not hot, warm but not dry, and it is not easy to over-tonify. In traditional Chinese medicine, graying hair, blurred vision, hearing loss, tooth loss, back pain, hunchback problems, and difficulty urinating and defecating in the elderly are all believed to be related to kidney deficiency and aging. Correct use of Cistanche can delay the occurrence of these symptoms. The decoction of Cistanche deserticola has a significant effect on the E rosette formation of human lymphocytes and the activity of acid α-naphthyl acetate esterase, and the ethanol extract has a certain promoting effect on the number of plaques in spleen cells and the transformation rate of lymphocytes.

Although Cistanche is a tonic, in addition to its kidney-tonifying and yang-boosting effects, it can also moisten the intestines and promote bowel movements. Because of its mild effect, it is especially suitable for the elderly and those with dry intestines, constipation and insufficient kidney yang. In clinical practice, raw Cistanche deserticola is generally used, but soaking it in rice water and then drying it for use as medicine can reduce its side effect of affecting appetite. Most laxative drugs have the disadvantage of damaging the body's vital energy, but Cistanche deserticola itself is a tonic and while it has a laxative effect, this problem generally does not occur.

Cistanche can inhibit the appearance of "yang deficiency" symptoms, reduce mortality, prevent weight loss, correct the cold resistance of "yang deficiency" animals, etc. Cistanche can cure premature ejaculation. Cistanche can significantly increase the propulsion rate of the small intestine of mice, shorten the defecation time of mice, and effectively counteract the defecation inhibitory effect of atropine. It also has a significant inhibitory effect on the water absorption of the large intestine, thereby promoting the moistening and excretion of feces, and has a definite "intestinal lubrication and laxative" effect.

According to the introduction of the effects of eating Cistanche in this article, I believe you all know that Cistanche has a very good effect on male impotence and premature ejaculation, and Cistanche can help us to moisturize the stool and relieve the symptoms of back pain. I hope that the elderly can eat some Cistanche appropriately.
