Dandelions can give your life a breath of fresh power in the spring, because of their bitterness, there is more sweetness to taste! This is the same as the principle of life. You must believe that nature will give you infinite power. Even the grass crawling on the ground is so magical and powerful, for example, the most inconspicuous dandelion. Dandelion has a miraculous effect on chronic diseases: For women, dandelions are also their benefactors. I often advise my female guests to eat more fresh dandelions from spring to summer. Why? Because dandelion clears the liver meridian, removes heat and reduces inflammation. Eighty to ninety percent of women now suffer from breast hyperplasia, and the main reason is liver depression. And if you do as I say and eat cold-boiled dandelions for six months, by autumn most people's breasts will be much softer. If you get mastitis during confinement, and happen to be able to buy fresh dandelions, it will be very effective to mash them and apply them on the affected area. I have a female classmate who returned from Canada as an overseas student. However, she was exhausted and developed nephritis in less than three years. I advised her to return to Canada to recuperate for a while, and gave her a box of wild dandelion roots for her to boil in water and drink. Half a year later, she sent me an email to let me know that all her indicators were back to normal and asked me to rest assured. He also told me that in Canada, dandelion is officially registered as a herb with diuretic effects and can be purchased, so there is no need to bother shipping it from China. Let me explain here. Dandelion is good for relieving stranguria and detoxification. Women who drink less water in the summer are most likely to suffer from urethritis. Buy one or two dandelions, boil them in water, and drink a large pot of it, and you will get better soon. People with chronic hepatitis account for a considerable proportion in China, and the chance of developing liver cancer is also quite high. If you take dandelion tea from a plant that is more than three years old, the effect of auxiliary treatment is still very good. It is said that Chinese medicine uses dandelion to treat diabetes, and the effect is very good without any side effects. In fact, all bitter, astringent, cold and alkaline foods are the nemesis of diabetes. Moreover, from an energy perspective, methods of nourishing the liver and kidneys have a therapeutic effect on diabetes. Pharmacological action: 1. Antibacterial Effect The injection of this product has a strong bactericidal effect on resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus and hemolytic Streptococcus in vitro. It also has a certain bactericidal effect on Pneumococcus, meningococcus, diphtheria bacteria, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Shigella dysenteriae, Salmonella typhi and catarrhalis. The alcohol extract of this product at a concentration of 1:400 can inhibit tuberculosis bacteria, but the decoction at a concentration of 1:100 is ineffective. Its 1:80 water decoction can delay ECHO11 virus cytopathic effect, and its alcohol extract (31 mg/kg) can kill Leptospira and also has an inhibitory effect on certain fungi. It has a good killing effect on Campylobacter Helicobacter. 2. Lactation effect The leaves of this herb can clear blocked milk vessels and promote lactation. 3. Anti-tumor effect: Anti-tumor: Intraperitoneal injection of 30-40 mg/kg of dandelion hot water extract has an anti-tumor effect on mice with Ehrlich ascites carcinoma when given 11-20 days after subcutaneous inoculation, but is ineffective when given 1-10 days after inoculation. Its anti-tumor effect is similar to that of Lentinan, and is achieved through an immune mechanism. 4. Choleretic effect Foreign studies have shown that this product has a choleretic effect and is clinically effective in treating chronic gallbladder spasm and gallstones. 5. Liver protection Recent studies have shown that dandelion has a protective effect against acute liver injury in rats. Dandelion can antagonize the damage to hepatocyte lysosomes and mitochondria caused by endotoxin, and relieve the toxic effects caused by endotoxin released after the action of antibiotics. Endotoxin was added to dandelion extract, and the activity of endotoxin was reduced after interaction, with the attenuation factor being 9.3, so it can protect the liver. 6. Stomach protection It has different degrees of protective effects on rat stress method, pylorus ligation method gastric ulcer model and rat mucosal injury model caused by anhydrous ethanol. Its anti-gastric ulcer and anti-gastric mucosal injury effects may be related to the impact on the content of endogenous PGE2 in gastric tissue. Dandelion has an inhibitory effect on gastric acid secretion in conscious rats. In anesthetized rats, gastric perfusion experiment was performed with pH 4 hydrochloric acid saline. Dandelion had a significant inhibitory effect on gastric acid secretion induced by histamine, pentagastrin and carbamylcholine. 7. Immunomodulatory effect Dandelion can enhance and improve the cellular immunity and nonspecific immune function of mice, and has a significant recovery and protective effect on the immune function damage of mice caused by cyclophosphamide. Dandelion can enhance the immune function of animals. In addition to being rich in vitamins and trace elements that are beneficial to the proliferation and differentiation of immune cells, it is still unclear whether dandelion has a specific regulatory mechanism, which is worth exploring. 8. Anti-oxidant free radical effect The total flavonoids in dandelion extract have similar effects as antioxidant free radicals. These substances can effectively scavenge superoxide anion radicals and light free radicals, and inhibit the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids. In addition, dandelion extract has a strong inhibitory effect on tyrosinase activity, which can reduce the production and pigmentation of melanin. 9. Regulate female endocrine function Dandelion has an effect on female steroid hormones. The Chinese medicine Dandelion Soup, which uses dandelion as the main ingredient, can significantly increase the levels of estradiol and progesterone in the brain tissue of mice after ovariectomy, and has a tendency to increase the level of estradiol in serum, but has no effect on the level of progesterone in serum. Dandelion soup can improve blood cholesterol and increase estrogen, thus affecting ovarian function. Dandelion can regulate female endocrine function, has a lactation effect, and can also be used to treat breast swelling caused by poor lactation. 10. Diuretic Effect Dandelion, also known as bed-wetting grass, has a diuretic effect, especially effective for portal hypertensive edema caused by cirrhosis of the liver.
