One medicine cures loose stools

With the vigorous promotion of traditional Chinese medicine by people today, traditional Chinese medicine has gradually begun to integrate into people's daily life. Many people like to use traditional Chinese medicine for health care in their daily life, so many people are familiar with common health care Chinese medicinal materials such as wolfberry, ginseng, Chuanxiong, and Panax notoginseng. However, as some uncommon Chinese medicinal materials, they are easily overlooked. Today, let’s learn about a spleen-tonifying Chinese medicine - Scutellaria baicalensis.

Although many people have never touched upon Scutellaria baicalensis, it is indeed an indispensable panacea for replenishing temperament. Our ancestors once praised Scutellaria baicalensis as "the number one medicine for replenishing qi and blood in the liver", which shows how powerful its spleen-strengthening effect is. The pace of life in modern society is fast, and many people's diet structure is not very good, so there are many people with poor spleen and stomach. For some chronic gastrointestinal diseases, taking medicine can only relieve the pain temporarily but cannot completely eliminate it. Why not try using Scutellaria baicalensis to treat it.

In traditional Chinese medicine, Scutellaria baicalensis is considered to be bitter but sweet, and has a mild nature. It has a very good effect of replenishing qi and blood, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and removing dampness. In addition, Scutellaria baicalensis also has certain effects of invigorating qi, consolidating sweat, and nourishing the fetus. This shows that the use of Scutellaria baicalensis in traditional Chinese medicine is still relatively common.

The best effect of Scutellaria baicalensis is to nourish the temper. It has therapeutic effects on a variety of gastrointestinal diseases, such as the common chest tightness, shortness of breath, anorexia, fatigue and loose stools caused by spleen deficiency and weak qi, abdominal distension and pain, poor appetite and loose stools caused by spleen deficiency and body dampness, abdominal distension and loss of appetite due to spleen deficiency and food accumulation, etc., all of which can be treated with good results using Scutellaria baicalensis.

In addition to replenishing qi and blood and strengthening the spleen and stomach, Scutellaria baicalensis can also eliminate dampness and water. Some people with weak spleen and stomach are prone to spleen dysfunction, resulting in water retention. At this time, symptoms such as phlegm, edema, watery stools, and loose stools often occur. At this time, using Scutellaria baicalensis in combination with other dampness-eliminating and dampness-removing drugs can have a very good effect. After strengthening the spleen, Scutellaria baicalensis can also nourish the blood, and has a certain effect of strengthening the exterior and benefiting the defense system. It can also treat night sweats and spontaneous sweating caused by qi deficiency.

For pregnant women, Scutellaria baicalensis can also be used, and it also has the effect of nourishing the fetus. For example, fetal movement disorder and pregnancy edema caused by spleen deficiency during pregnancy, vomiting, loss of appetite, and heaviness of limbs caused by spleen dampness, etc., can be alleviated to a certain extent by using Scutellaria baicalensis in combination with other Chinese medicinal materials.
