Introduction to the Gold Exchange:
Jin Buhuan is another name of Sanqi, which describes the importance of Sanqi. Li Shizhen, a famous pharmacist in the Ming Dynasty, called it "gold does not change". Panax notoginseng is a pearl in Chinese herbal medicine. In the Pharmacology Compendium of Materia Medica in the Qing Dynasty, it was recorded: "Ginseng is the first to tonify qi, and Sanqi is the first to tonify blood. It has the same taste, so it is called Sanqi, which is the most precious of Chinese herbal medicines.
Notoginseng is a very precious traditional medicine in China. Why is it called Sanqi? Some people say it's because its leaves are left, right and left, but others say it's not. It is said that its real name is mountain lacquer, which can heal serious wounds, just like sticking objects together with glue, so it is called Sanqi. No matter what its name comes from, we all know that it is a precious Chinese herbal medicine. After all, Li Shizhen's "no exchange of gold" is not just talk.
Panax notoginseng has a particularly good effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. When you bump your legs and feet and leave some bruises, you can also apply Sanqi to the affected area, which will produce a cool feeling and can effectively remove blood stasis. Studies have shown that Panax Notoginseng can effectively shorten the clotting time, increase the production of thrombin, and at the same time, there will be vasoconstriction at the site where the wound is applied, effectively achieving the effect of hemostasis.
Although Panax notoginseng is indeed a very effective drug for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, it is not suitable for menstrual women and may lead to excessive bleeding. Moreover, some women with less menstrual flow can properly use Sanqi, which can adjust the menstrual flow to some extent. The way to eat Sanqi is very simple. If you are not afraid of suffering, you can take Sanqi directly with warm water. You can also add some honey to the water, which will relieve the bitterness of Panax notoginseng.
Sanqi can also be used to make soup, such as pigeon soup and old hen soup that we usually drink. You can add a proper amount of Notoginseng, but it is best to put Notoginseng in a cotton bag so as not to affect the taste of chicken soup. Cooking time should not be too long, and the time should be controlled at 15 minutes. Panax notoginseng is best taken before meals, so as to maximize the efficacy.
