is straight to the point, and today I want to talk to you about burdock .
Burdock is the fruit of burdock . It is cultivated in most parts of my country. It can be seen on hillsides, in valleys, in jungles, and by streams. Burdock is a biennial herb . Its leaves are so wide, as my predecessors said, "Burdock Leaf Qiluocui Fan", which means that the leaves of burdock are comparable to those of Luocui Fan, and are wider than the leaves of ordinary plants. This is very similar to the leaves of salvia , and the seedlings of salvia ginseng are also called "dock". In addition, in ancient times, the names of cattle and horses were often used to name some large plants to describe their size. Therefore, the name of burdock came from this.
In addition, there is another saying that the fruits of burdock are prickly, and when cows see it, they have to take a detour and pass by. In addition, it is also a herb, and the word "王" is the same as "dock", so it is called burdock.
burdock tangerine
The ancients once wrote a poem saying: "Although the truth is evil, the food is not evil." It should be noted that the "although the truth is evil" mentioned here refers to the real name of burdock - evil reality. This sentence says that although burdock tangerine has many thorns, it is excellent as food.
Li Shizhen, a famous doctor in the Ming Dynasty, once explained the name to him in "Compendium of Materia Medica", saying that burdock "evil and thorny hooks" looks like a big thorn ball, and even a mouse cannot get through it, so burdock has alias such as " rat stick " and "rat sees sorrow". The "Bencao Tujing" also says that the burdock "has a shell like a chestnut, small and thorny. If the rat passes, it will not be removed. Therefore, it is called rat stick, which is like a sheep carrying a comeback." Later generations translated it into "millet stick".

The body fluid in the lungs is evaporated by wind-heat evil qi, which makes phlegm. The lungs are also known as "sweet organs". They cannot accommodate such filth as phlegm and turbidity. Therefore, if the body is stressed, it will cough and , in order to expel the phlegm and turbidity from the body.
