February 23, 2024

Alcoholic liver disease is a common type of liver disease, and many people develop it due to excessive alcohol consumption. Treatment for alcoholic liver disease is necessary for patients. Which traditional Chinese medicine can help treat alcoholic liver disease?


1. Rhubarb

Rhubarb not only has a laxative effect but also has the ability to lower blood pressure and cholesterol. Taking a small amount regularly has a good effect on obese, hypertensive, coronary heart disease, and hyperlipidemia patients.

2. Goji berries

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that goji berries can nourish liver yin, nourish liver blood, and benefit vision. Modern pharmacological research has shown that goji berries can lower blood sugar, inhibit the deposition of fat in liver cells, promote liver cell regeneration, and have a blood pressure-lowering effect.

3. Cordyceps sinensis

Cordyceps sinensis can enhance the body's immune function, strengthen the ability to clear viruses, protect liver cells, and indirectly inhibit the occurrence and development of liver fibrosis. Artificial cultivation of Cordyceps sinensis mycelium has similar effects to natural Cordyceps sinensis.

4. Hawthorn

Modern pharmacological research has shown that hawthorn can enhance myocardial contractility, increase cardiac output, slow heart rate, dilate coronary blood vessels, and has the effects of lowering blood pressure and blood lipid levels. Hawthorn fruits or hawthorn cakes can be consumed, about 10 grams each time, twice a day, taken after meals.
