"Dong quai has been called the "female ginseng"
and is excellent as an all purpose women's herb. It has been
used for centuries in China for regulating the menstrual cycle
and easing menstrual pain and cramping. It can be used to
help women regain normal menstrual cycles after taking "the
Pill." It has proven helpful for relieving hot flashes
during menopause. Dong quai can be used for insomnia and blood
pressure stability for both men and women. (The affect on
blood pressure can be an overall lowering although sometimes
it may rise slightly first, followed by a decline). It can
reduce PMS and may help anemia, suppressed menstrual flow,
uterine bleeding, abdominal pain after childbirth, dry intestines,
chronic pelvic disorders and constipation and headaches due
to blood deficiency. Dong quai helps the liver utilize more
oxygen and therefore can be useful in treating hepatitis and
cirrhosis. It may also help with abnormal protein metabolism.
Dong quai helps dilate peripheral blood vessels, increase
circulation, and has been used as a mild laxative.
Dong Quai
Dong quai is an aromatic herb that grows in China, Korea,
and Japan. The reputation of Don quai is second only to Ginseng
and is considered the ultimate, all-purpose woman's tonic
herb. It is used for almost every gynecological complaint
from regulating the menstrual cycle to treating menopausal
symptoms caused by hormonal changes.
Dong quai is frequently used by the Chinese as a strengthening
treatment for the heart, spleen, liver and kidneys. Both men
and women use the herb as a general blood tonic.
Dong quai contains vitamins E, A and B12. Researchers have
isolated at least six coumarin derivatives that exert antispasmodic
and vasodilatory effects. Antispasmodics are a remedy for
menstrual cramps. The essential oil in dong quai contains
Ligustilide, butylphthalide and numerous other minor components.
Ferulic acid and various polysaccharides are also found in
dong quai's root. These elements can prevent spasms, reduce
blood clotting and relax peripheral blood vessels. Research
has shown that don quai produces a balancing effect on estrogen
activity.
Modern treatments prescribe the herb to combat PMS and to
help women resume normal menstruation after using birth control
pills.
The herb has been found useful in balancing and treating many
female systems and cycles. Dong quai's constituents can act
to stimulate the central nervous system which can remedy weakness
and headaches associated with menstrual disorders. It strengthens
internal reproductive organs, helps with endometriosis and
internal bleeding or bruising. It relieves menopausal conditions
such as vaginal dryness and hot flashes.
The herb has also been used as a blood purifier, to promote
blood circulation and nourish the blood in both sexes. It
is high in iron content and may help to prevent iron deficiency
and anemia. Studies show that it can aid in regulating blood
sugar and in lowering blood pressure.
Dong quai has a mild sedative effect which can relieve stress
and calms the nerves. It has also be used to stimulate the
uterus during childbirth, treat insomnia, alleviate constipation
and for migraine headaches
