The Healing Power of Sanqi Hua: Benefits and Safety

Many people are familiar with Sanqi, which not only can be used to treat injuries but also has the effect of stopping bleeding. The flower buds of Sanqi, known as Sanqi Hua, also have high nutritional value and are even better for medicinal use when soaked in water!

【Benefits of Drinking Sanqi Hua Infused Water】

1. Regulates blood pressure

The functions of Sanqi Hua are often used to treat and prevent cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and hyperlipidemia. The blood circulation components in Sanqi Hua can reduce the proportion of cholesterol in the blood and decrease its viscosity, thus preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases such as hyperlipidemia, high cholesterol, and atherosclerosis.

2. Treats insomnia

In traditional Chinese medicine, insomnia is believed to be caused by an imbalance of yin and yang between the liver, heart, and spleen due to excessive liver yang. Sanqi Hua has a soothing effect on the liver, helping to balance excessive liver yang and prevent imbalances in the liver meridian that can lead to insomnia.

3. Relieves liver qi stagnation

The liver is responsible for regulating the smooth flow of qi and transforming and transporting blood. Many people experience abnormal heartbeats and arrhythmias after getting angry, which are related to the upward movement of liver qi. Therefore, drinking water infused with Sanqi Hua every day can have a good preventive and therapeutic effect on these conditions.

【Side Effects of Sanqi Hua】

Sanqi Hua, as the flower buds of Sanqi, has a long history of use and has dual regulatory effects on blood circulation, including promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis as well as replenishing blood. Long-term consumption can soften blood vessels and promote blood health, effectively preventing various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Through practice and modern scientific research, it has been confirmed that there are no side effects of Sanqi Hua. Long-term consumption of Sanqi Hua is safe. Sanqi Hua is a medicinal food, which means it can be used as a food ingredient.

However, the fact that Sanqi Hua has no side effects does not mean that it is suitable for everyone to drink. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes individualized treatment. Just like Sanqi powder, which also has no side effects, some people or special circumstances are not suitable for using Sanqi Hua.

It is best for women not to use Sanqi Hua during their menstrual period. During this time, it is not advisable to consume cooling foods, and the blood circulation-promoting effect of Sanqi Hua can easily lead to excessive menstrual bleeding.
