Does Astragalus remove dampness?

Astragalus can generally remove dampness.

Astragalus has the effects of invigorating qi and tonifying the kidney, and can also effectively promote diuresis and reduce swelling. It can promote the body's metabolism and blood circulation, improve abnormal heart function, and has a more obvious therapeutic effect on angina pectoris or coronary heart disease. It can prevent atherosclerosis, protect the liver mucosa, promote liver detoxification, and eliminate cold and moisture in the body. It has a more obvious therapeutic effect on rheumatoid arthritis or local pain, and can also effectively invigorate qi and nourish blood. It is ideal for improving patients' anemia or physical fatigue, and can also improve patients' physical immunity, but it is usually necessary to take this medicine as prescribed by a doctor.

Patients with dampness in the body usually experience symptoms such as mental depression or thick tongue coating. They may also experience coughing or sputum. It is not ruled out that patients may develop high blood pressure and cardiovascular diseases. This is usually caused by long-term lack of exercise, or frequent consumption of irritating and greasy foods. If simply taking Astragalus to expel dampness is not effective, you can take Pingwei San for comprehensive treatment as prescribed by the doctor. You must eat more light and easily digestible foods, avoid eating greasy foods frequently, and strengthen physical exercise, such as running or mountain climbing, to promote metabolism and blood circulation in the body and improve the body's resistance.
