Analysis of the efficacy of soaking Eucommia bark in water

Speaking of "Eucommia ulmoides", I believe everyone is familiar with it. It is generally believed that it can nourish the kidneys, strengthen the body, and strengthen the bones. Many plasters contain this ingredient. People who are prone to back pain often use it as an ingredient to make soup or soak it in wine. Today we recommend soaking Eucommia bark in water, focusing on analyzing its efficacy so that we can use Eucommia bark to soak in water more often in our lives according to our own physical conditions.

Drinking Eucommia bark soaked in water has the following two main effects:

1. Nourish the liver and kidneys, strengthen the bones and tendons, and stabilize the fetus

Eucommia ulmoides is mainly used for liver and kidney deficiency, weak tendons and bones. This product is sweet and warm, and mainly enters the kidney and liver meridians. It can not only nourish the liver and kidneys but also strengthen the tendons and bones. It is an important medicine for treating kidney deficiency, low back pain, and lower limb weakness. Extracts and decoctions of the bark have a lasting hypotensive effect on animals. Various preparations of Eucommia ulmoides have a diuretic effect on anesthetized dogs without any "rapid tolerance" phenomenon. It also has a diuretic effect on normal rats and mice. Eucommia ulmoides contains 0.4% potassium, so it is inferred that diuresis may be related to potassium. It can also be used for Chong and Ren instability, restless fetal movement or miscarriage. This product is good at nourishing the liver and kidneys, and strengthening the Chong and Ren meridians to stabilize the fetus.

2. Antihypertensive drugs

In addition to replenishing kidney deficiency, Eucommia ulmoides is also the world's highest quality natural antihypertensive drug. You can make tea by mixing Eucommia bark and green tea together, but there are certain rules for how to drink it. Grind the bark of Eucommia ulmoides into fine powder and take it with pre-brewed green tea water, twice a day, 3 grams each time. This will have a very good effect of lowering blood pressure and blood lipids, which is a hundred times stronger than those Western medicines for lowering blood pressure, because Western medicine mainly achieves the purpose of lowering blood pressure by dilating blood vessels. Although the blood pressure is lowered, it is very bad for the body. Eucommia ulmoides is different. It treats hypertension from the root, especially hypertension caused by kidney deficiency. When the liver and kidneys are sufficient, blood pressure will naturally drop.

From the above we know the effects of drinking Eucommia bark soaked in water. It can not only strengthen muscles and bones, but also is a very good medicinal material for lowering blood pressure. Of course, it cannot be drunk as tea just because of these effects. People with yin deficiency, fever, or low blood pressure should avoid eating it, otherwise it will only aggravate its adverse effects. Before taking it, it is recommended to ask an old Chinese doctor to take your pulse first and then determine how to take it.
