People with deficiency of both yin and yang in the kidney can use Polygonum multiflorum for nourishment. There is still a story about the origin of Polygonum multiflorum. According to legend, a long time ago, there was a man named He Shouwu whose grandfather was Tian'er. The story began with Tian'er. Tian'er has a physical defect and is inhumane. He has not married a wife at the age of fifty-eight.
One day he saw two grass vines intermingle in the wild. Under the guidance of an expert, he made the vines and roots into wine. After drinking for more than ten days, he felt his health improved greatly. So he married a wife and had children, and drank this wine for life. Later he lived to be one hundred and sixty years old and had 19 children.
His son also took this wine and lived to be one hundred and sixty years old and had 30 sons. His grandson, Shouwu, often consumed the wine and lived to be 130 years old, with 21 children.
The villagers around see their home as unusual and want to live forever and have prosperous descendants, so they all look for Polygonum multiflorum for medicine. Once they come and go, this medicine is named "Why Shouwu".
Polygonum multiflorum is also known as Ziwu Veng, Yejiao Veng, Iron Scale Ingot, Red Neixiao. It has a very powerful effect and can nourish the liver, nourish the kidney, nourish blood, and expel wind. It has a certain preventive effect on liver and kidney yin deficiency, gray hair, blood deficiency, dizziness, tinnitus, weakness of waist and knee muscles, and neurasthenia.
As early as the Tang Dynasty, Polygonum multiflorum was used as a valuable health product for nourishing blood, strengthening essence, strengthening vitality, and maintaining beauty. "Compendium of Materia Medica" writes: "Multiple fleece-flower root can nourish blood and liver, invigorate the kidney, strengthen bones and muscles, and moustache hair. It is a nourishing medicine. It is neither cold nor dry. Its power is above the herbs of Rehmannia glutinosa and Asparagus."
Some people have heard that Polygonum multiflorum can cause liver and kidney damage and dare not use Polygonum multiflorum. In fact, it is unnecessary. Indeed, some people have had problems with Polygonum multiflorum. Once there was a patient who had Shaobaitou. He listened to the home remedy and asked him to drink Polygonum multiflorum powder. As a result, he drank too much, causing acute liver failure.
Polygonum multiflorum separates Shouwu and Shouwu. Raw multiflorum contains rhein, emodin and other substances, which has certain hepatotoxicity. People with low immunity may have adverse reactions and even cause liver damage. , Now it is basically used for external use, the dosage is 3 to 6 grams. In clinical practice, Polygonum multiflorum is taken internally by black soybeans, and it is also called shouwu, which has a partial temperature and tonic effect. The dosage is 6-12 grams.
Shouwu has a wide range of applicability. For those with deficiency of both yin and yang, 10g of Shouwu, 10g of Cistanche, 5g of Chinese wolfberry, and 5g of dodder can be used to make tea together, brew for a while, and inject water repeatedly until tasteless .
People who can drink can soak 100g of Shouwu and 100g of Cistanche in 1000ml of white wine. You can drink it after one month, just drink 15ml every night.
These two prescriptions can nourish liver and kidney, nourish essence and blood, and are suitable for dizziness, tinnitus, hard of hearing, insomnia, forgetfulness, heart palpitations, early white hair, waist and knee weakness, and dreams caused by deficiency of liver and kidney and insufficient essence and blood. Slippery.
If you have more mental overdrafts with your brain, causing memory loss and fatigue, you can also use 6 grams of Shouwu, 5 grams of Gastrodia, and 10 grams of Dashengdi to make tea at this time. Once every 3 days, you can drink only tea and no medicinal materials.
The longer the years, the stronger the efficacy of Polygonum multiflorum. Wang Hao of the Qing Dynasty wrote in the "Guangqunfangpu" volume 98: "If you go to the root and get the number of nine, you will serve as immortal, hence the name Jiuzhenteng." The "Li Yuan Appendix" says: "If Polygonum multiflorum has grown for 50 years, its size is as big as a fist, and its name is'shan slave'. After serving for a year, its hair is black and green; if it grows for 100 years, its size is as big as a bowl and its name is'Shan Ge. After serving for one year, the complexion is red and happy; those who have grown for one hundred and fifty years are as big as a basin, and the name is "Shanbo". After one year, their teeth will resurrect; those who have grown for two hundred years are like Castanopsis indigo. "Mountain Weng", after serving for a year, the color is like a boy, walking like flying; those who have grown for three hundred years, known as the'mountain spirit', have grown into a pure yang body, serving as an earth fairy."
Although I haven't seen it. After the magical effect of "Serving as an immortal", Polygonum multiflorum is indeed the longer the time the better the effect. However, the output of true wild Polygonum multiflorum is very limited. The natural human-shaped Polygonum multiflorum grown in a pure natural environment is even rarer, and it is impossible to supply them in large quantities in large quantities.
Most of the human-shaped Polygonum multiflorum in the market are artificially cultivated using molds, so it is not recommended that you spend a high price to buy the so-called "Hundred-year Polygonum multiflorum". Not only can it not prolong life, it may also damage your health.
Some patients know that Polygonum multiflorum is good for their health. They bought Polygonum multiflorum while traveling and gave me a copy. I opened it and saw that this is not Polygonum multiflorum at all but Baishouwu. Baishouwu is rarely used clinically, and its efficacy is different from that of Polygonum multiflorum.Let me tell you the method of identification. It is estimated that everyone is still not very good at identification. It is recommended that you must go to a regular and guaranteed pharmacy to buy medicinal materials, and do not go to some tourist places to buy medicinal materials. The quality of the medicinal materials and the authenticity are not guaranteed.
Tonics such as Polygonum multiflorum are best purchased at standardized pharmacies. Centuries-old stores pay attention to authentic medicinal materials and have strict purchase channels to ensure product quality.
