Fuling powder, as the name suggests, is the powder form of Fuling. It has a mild and sweet taste and is commonly seen in white and light gray colors, turning dark gray after brewing. Fuling powder is rich in nutrients, containing triterpenes, polysaccharides, choline, fats, phospholipids, potassium, magnesium, and other nutrients.
Beauty and Skin Care
Fuling powder not only helps to remove spots and whiten the skin, but also enhances immune function and dilates blood vessels. The Essential Compendium of Materia Medica states: "Grind Fuling into powder, mix with honey, and apply to the face to treat facial sores and postpartum black pustules like quail eggs." Therefore, Fuling powder can not only improve the complexion, but also promote healthy teeth and hair, and prolong life. If combined with moisturizing and nourishing with honey water, the effect of spot removal and beauty is even more remarkable.
Enhancing Immune Function
Fuling powder contains polysaccharides, which can enhance the cytotoxicity of T lymphocytes, thus strengthening cellular immune response and activating the body's immune surveillance system against tumors. This is closely related to its anti-tumor activity.
Whitening Skin
In addition to internal use, Fuling powder can also be used as a facial mask, such as in combination with pearl powder and honey, which is beneficial for skin whitening. It should be noted that Fuling powder has a diuretic effect and may not be suitable for use when the skin is dry and dehydrated.
Weight Loss
Fuling powder can be used to eliminate excess water in the body for individuals with obesity and pale complexion caused by "dampness stagnation". If combined with Huangqi, it can also tonify the spleen and qi, making it a good herbal medicine for weight loss. Fuling powder also has a diuretic and kidney-tonifying effect, which is helpful for individuals with lower limb edema caused by obesity.
