Astragalus

(Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch.) Bunge)

Astragalus is a valuable Chinese medicine, according to the pharmacopoeia has a complementary qi and solid surface, diuretic effect, the folk also take astragalus in winter with the nourishment of the habit of strengthening the body food. Therefore, the annual consumption of astragalus is very large. The medicinal part is the root, once the root is taken, the whole plant no longer survives. The wild resources of Astragalus are becoming scarce in the case of mass excavation. For this reason the plant is identified as a national third-grade protected plant.

Astragalus is a perennial herb with a plant height of about 1 meter. The main root is 1-2 centimeters in diameter and up to 1 meter long, inserted straight into the soil depth. The above-ground stems are erect, angular; covered with long hairs. Leaves alternate, odd-pinnately compound, with 21-31 leaflets. Leaflets elliptic, 7-30 mm long, 4-12 mm wide, apex rounded or retuse, base rounded. Stipules lanceolate, 6 mm long. Racemes are borne in the upper leaf axils of the stem, with 10-20 flowers per inflorescence. Flowers yellowish, butterfly-shaped corolla, flag petals obovate, slightly concave at the tip, wing petals and keel petals nearly as long. Ovary stalked, post-flowering pods swollen, oblong, 2-3 centimeters long, with a short beak at the tip, short hairs on the outside of the fruit, containing 3-8 seeds.

The Astragalus is produced in North China, Northeast China, Inner Mongolia and Northwest China, mainly in Shanxi, Heilongjiang, Liaoning, Hebei and other provinces, the former Soviet Union, North Korea and Mongolia are also distributed. In order to protect the wild resources should be appropriately limited mining, mining season should be in the seed maturity after the fall, is strictly prohibited to dig the young plants. In order to expand the resources should be vigorously develop the planting or artificial seeding young plants, and then maintain a semi-wild state until the harvest.

Astragalus is a leguminous plant, which is a commonly used Chinese medicine. Its main pharmacological effect is to "benefit the qi and consolidate the surface", it can "diuretic", but also can "support the toxicity of the muscle". What is "benefiting qi"? All Chinese medicine is considered to be "qi deficiency", "qi and blood deficiency", "the qi sinking" situation, can be used astragalus. Usually weak, easily fatigued, often feel weak, is often a manifestation of "qi deficiency". Anemia is often a sign of "deficiency of qi and blood". Prolapse, uterine drop these symptoms are also often considered to be the "sinking of qi". People with these symptoms may benefit from taking astragalus during the winter months. Of course, it is best to take under the guidance of a doctor.

Some people are prone to catching colds when the weather changes, which is known as "table not solid" in traditional Chinese medicine, and astragalus can be used to solidify the table. Taking astragalus regularly can avoid frequent colds. Chinese medicine has a famous formula, called "Yu Ping Feng San", there are three drugs, the main drug is astragalus, can be used to treat frequent colds.

Because the body is weak, or older people, often lower limbs have some edema. If you have a "qi deficiency", you can also take astragalus. People with chronic kidney disease may also often have swelling, Chinese medicine treatment, astragalus is sometimes also commonly used in Chinese medicine.

The so-called "toxin" means that wounds can be easily recovered after surgery, or abscesses that have not healed for a long time can become suppurative and produce muscle.

Taking astragalus, should be under the guidance of a doctor, for different personal constitution to take the right amount of astragalus, astragalus eating a lot of ways, now introduces a few:

Situation

The species is progressively endangered. Also known as Astragalus membranaceus, it is mainly distributed in the northern region of China, and is one of the more valuable Chinese medicinal herbs, which is used as medicine with its roots. Due to long-term large-scale digging, the number of wild Astragalus has decreased sharply in recent years, if not to strengthen the protection and artificial propagation, there is a tendency to the danger of extinction.

Morphological features

Perennial herb, 50-150 cm tall; main root thick and long, 1-3 cm in diameter; stem erect, finely ribbed, white villous. Leaves odd-pinnate, axes villous; leaflets (13 I) 21-27 (I-31), elliptic to oblong-ovate, 7-30 mm long, 4-12 mm wide, apex rounded-obtuse or retuse, sometimes with a small spinelike tip, base rounded, with ambulatory white pilose hairs below; stipules narrowly lanceolate, ca. 6 mm long, with white villous hairs.

Characteristics

The Astragalus is distributed in the temperate and warm temperate regions of China, and is a deep-rooted plant. Prefer cool climate, strong drought resistance, cold resistance, heat intolerance, intolerance of waterlogging. Too high temperatures often inhibit plant growth, soil humidity is too large, often causing root rot. Suitable for growth in deep, fertile, loose, well-drained sandy soil, in clay soil is more roots, slow growth. Born in the forest edge, scrub, forest grassland, under the sparse forest and meadows and other places. Flowering period (6) July - August, fruiting period (7) August - September.

Protective value

The root of Astragalus is used in medicine, often used as tonic Chinese medicine, and also used as veterinary medicine, with a large sales volume. Roots of 10 times the water immersion liquid, the potato late blight has inhibition efficiency. Astragalus also has the role of maintaining soil and water.

Protection measures

Astragali growing place generally does not belong to the nature reserve, in order not to make it extinct, it is recommended that the purchase of medicinal herbs should be based on the different specifics of each place to determine the amount of purchase, and vigorously publicize to the masses, pay attention to the protection of seedlings during the digging, the growth of plants should be retained appropriately for reproduction and perpetual use. Should also further expand the cultivation area.

Cultivation points

Propagation by seed. In the north in the spring in April - May or fall in September - October sowing, because the seeds are more impermeable hard seed coat, before sowing should be appropriate mechanical damage, after sowing, pay attention to maintain soil moisture, the temperature at 18 - 20 ℃ in about 9 days to germinate. Excessive rainfall should be timely drainage.

1 medicinal evidence

Astragalus is used for excessive sweating and swelling. In "The Essentials of the Golden Chamber", the largest amount of astragalus in Astragalus, Paeonia lactiflora, Gui Zhi, and Bitter Wine Soup is 5 taels, which is used to treat "swelling of the body, fever, sweat, and thirst, like wind and water, sweat stained clothes, and the color is as yellow as cypress juice". Wind and water is generalized swelling; sweat can stain the clothes, indicating that the amount of sweat is relatively large. The most simple formula of astragalus in the "Golden Chamber Essentials" for the prevention of astragalus soup, medicinal flavor ***6 flavors, the main treatment of "wind-dampness pulse floating, heavy sweating and bad wind", "external Taiwan Secret" is the main treatment of wind and water, "his or her head sweating, ...... waist The following when the swelling and Yin, difficult to flexion and extension", visible also have sweating and swelling. Simply put, astragalus main treatment sweating and swelling.

The so-called sweating, in order to self-sweating is common, that is, in the case of not taking sweating medicine, not strenuous exercise, the temperature room temperature is normal, sweating more, and can be accompanied by shortness of breath, weakness, wind, dizziness, easy to catch a cold and other symptoms, this symptom group, Chinese medicine generalized as a "qi deficiency self-sweating". The degree of sweating is more serious, often the clothes are wet, some can see the yellowing of sweat stains, sweating to the upper half of the body as a significant. Clinically, some patients do not sweat to the main complaint, but through the inquiry, you can learn that the patient usually sweat more, a little physical activity, it is easy to sweat, or the skin is more moist.

Folk treatment of spontaneous sweating, commonly used astragalus and red dates soup: astragalus 15-30g, 15 red dates, decoction, take 2 times a day. You can also use the Chinese patent medicine astragalus oral solution. The "Medicine Zhongzhong Ganshi Lu" recorded Zhang Xichun treatment of a woman in Cangzhou, more than 20 years old, chest full of tightness, palpitations, sweating when moving, his family has pre-purchased a packet of astragalus, so decocted and served, served after the healing. Postpartum sweating, reported with astragalus 30g, motherwort 30g, decoction, served 2 times a day. My experience, for the self-sweating and bad wind, can be used Gui Zhi Tang plus astragalus: astragalus 20g, Gui Zhi 10g, white peony 10g, licorice 3g, ginger 10g, red dates 10, water decoction.

The so-called swelling is mainly generalized edema, but it is obvious in the lower limbs. Due to changes in body position, there is swelling of the face in the morning, while the lower limbs are swollen in the afternoon. Some people do not have obvious swelling, but muscle flaccidity, obesity, as if the appearance of swelling. Due to edema, patients are often self-conscious of the body's heaviness, inflexibility, joint pain. Qing Dynasty Lu Dingpu "cold hut medical words" recorded: Wang suffered from swelling disease, since the top to the heel, stools often closed, asthma, hissing, two bowel movements, life-threatening, seeking medical treatment in Haining Xu Shanlin. Xu's use of raw astragalus 120g, glutinous rice 30g, a large bowl of porridge, so that the patient with a small spoon frequently served. After the medication, the patient's wheezing calmed down and his bowel movements were relieved, and the swelling of the whole body subsided and healed. Mr. Fan Wenhu, a famous doctor in recent times, treated a case of postpartum swelling, the abdomen was as big as a drum, and then gradually and all over the body, soft when pressed, and the skin did not shine. The patient's gas and pulse soft, very critical. Fan Wenhu in accordance with the above method, with raw astragalus 30g decoction, boiled glutinous rice half a cup, into porridge, light food, 5 days of its swelling is eliminated. According to legend in the winter of 1920, hu shi suffered from diabetes, chronic nephritis combined with heart disease, generalized edema, the concord hospital, after the Chinese medicine LuZhongAn, with a large dose of astragalus (10 two, the phase full of 300g or so) with ginseng and so on and healed. This suggests that astragalus can reduce swelling.

To tonify Qi and strengthen the spleen, it is often combined with Codonopsis and Atractylodes macrocephala; for benefiting Qi and raising Yang while lifting the sinking, it is often combined with Codonopsis, Ascophyllum officinale, Chai Hu and Roasted Glycyrrhiza glabra.

(l) chronic kidney disease

Modern famous doctor Mr. Yue Meizhong, in the "cold hut medical talk" astragalus porridge treatment of edema experience inspired by the creation of astragalus porridge treatment of chronic nephritis in children, received good results. The prescription is: raw astragalus 30g, raw coix seed 30g, adzuki bean 15g, chicken gold 9g, kumquat cake 2, glutinous rice 30g. 600ml of water first, boil astragalus 20 minutes, remove the dregs of the medicine, the second into the coix seed, adzuki bean, cook for 30 minutes, and again into the chicken gold, glutinous rice, cooked into porridge. For 1 day amount, divided into 2 times to serve, after eating chewing kumquat cake 1. This formula for chronic nephritis, kidney Meng nephritis residual edema, high efficacy, elimination of proteinuria is also effective. In fact, the single use of astragalus glutinous rice porridge is also effective. Its practice is: astragalus 30-120g, glutinous rice 30-50g, first decoction of astragalus, take the juice, then into the glutinous rice, porridge, daily consumption. Astragalus porridge is a traditional Chinese medicine porridge, in the Song Dynasty has been popular, Su Shi has a poem "astragalus porridge recommended spring plate", it can be seen that Su Shi is consumed astragalus porridge.

Folk also use astragalus steamed duck to treat kidney disease. Practice is: 1 live duck (about 1kg), astragalus 60g, the first duck slaughtered and cleaned, put in boiling water blanch through the fish, belly into the astragalus, ginger, scallion white, put a small amount of pepper, and put a few stars in the belly of the water and wine, sewed with cotton thread, installed in the basin steamed for 2 hours. Remove the astragalus, eat the meat and drink the soup. One duck can be eaten in 3 days. It can be used as a dietary remedy for chronic kidney disease (Popular Medicine, No. 4, 1999).

Clinical I treat chronic kidney disease, often use Yu Ping Feng San with Zhen Wu Tang treatment, insist on taking, have the effect of improving kidney function.

(2) Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases

①Hypertension: I treat hypertension with lower limb edema in the elderly, and I often use Fangji Huangqi Tang with Pueraria Mirifica, which has a better effect on eliminating edema as well as lowering blood pressure. Fangji astragalus soup is the "Golden Chamber" formula, my experience with the dosage: astragalus 30g, 12g atractylodes macrocephala, Fangji 12g, licorice 3g, 3 slices of ginger, 10 jujubes, often go to the licorice, add Pueraria lobata 30g, if accompanied by high blood fat, add zedoary 20g, chest pain and dizziness, add rhizoma ligustici chuanxiong 10g, Salvia officinalis 12g.

② ischemic heart disease: astragalus 50g per day, decocted into 3 doses. Treatment of 92 cases of ischemic heart disease, and were compared with cardiac pain and danshen tablets, the results show that the astragalus group has a better efficacy. Not only angina pectoris and other symptoms are obviously relieved, but also can improve the electrocardiogram, cardiac impedance map and other clinical objective indicators.

3 cerebrovascular accident: modern Ningbo famous doctor Fan Wenhu is good at applying this formula to treat stroke hemiplegia, astragalus commonly used 60-120 g. He said: "Stroke is a disease. There are fire, wind, phlegm, according to the treatment is often ineffective. This is the ultimate gas deficiency, stagnation of the veins for more, only Wang Qingren complementary Yang also five soup is credible. Astragalus can be increased to four two, even served dozens of doses of no harm". The formula of Wang Qingren (王清任), a famous doctor in Qing Dynasty, consists of 60g of Astragalus, 10g of Angelica sinensis, 10g of Rhizoma Ligustici Chuanxiong (川芎), 15g of Paeonia lactiflora (芍药), 10g of peach kernel (桃仁), 6g of safflower (红花), 10g of Dilong (地龙). It is used in the treatment of paraplegia, distorted eyes and mouth, awkward speech, salivation at the corner of the mouth, dryness of the bowel movements, frequency of urine, and urination. It is used in modern times for the treatment of cerebral infarction, cerebral thrombosis, diabetes mellitus, etc., all of which have good efficacy.

(3) Diabetes

For diabetes with swelling and yellow color, I often use Fangji Huangqi Tang with Pueraria Mirifica and so on. If diabetes-induced lower limb ulcers or deep thrombosis, I use 60g of raw astragalus with 30g of Pueraria lobata, 30g of hyssop, 30g of dendrobium, 30g of red peony, and 20g of danshen.

(4) Tumor chemotherapy and radiotherapy as well as after surgery

Patients with anemia, swelling, loss of appetite, easy to sweat and colds, etc., are often indications for the application of Astragalus. Clinical use of Astragalus Jianzhong Tang and Shiquan Daxin Tang are commonly used. I have treated one case of multiple myeloma patient, whose main symptoms are excessive sweating, bad wind, high fever, with astragalus 60g, cinnamon 10g, with Zhenwu Tang, after 1 week of medication, sweating and bad wind significantly reduced, treatment for 1 year, the condition is stable, and there is almost no fever.

Traditionally, there are pills and creams in China and granules in Japan, mainly to facilitate prolonged intake.

(5) Chronic rhinitis

Commonly used Yu Ping Feng San: Astragalus 15g, Atractylodes macrocephala 12g, Fenghuang 10g. The main treatment of qi deficiency and spontaneous sweating, easy to catch a cold. Allergic rhinitis, hay fever, asthma, colds in the elderly are often used. 3 slices of ginger and 10 red dates can be added to the formula.

Ingredients: 30g of astragalus, 10g of cinnamon sticks, 15g of white peony, 3 slices of ginger, 12 red dates. Licorice should not be used in this formula. When Fan Wenhu treatment of medical practitioner Shen's daughter-in-law disease limb soreness and numbness, had served Gui Zhi Tang plus flavor treatment did not work, Fan used Astragalus Gui Zhi Wu Wu Wu Tang original formula, 2 doses of the effect. Gui Zhi Tang and Astragalus Gui Zhi Wu Wu Wu Tang only licorice, astragalus difference, the difference between a flavor of medicine, the effect is very different (see "Wei Changchun clinical experience collection").

(7) Long-standing ulcers

Astragali is a traditional medicine for sores, which has the effect of regenerating muscles, especially for "long-lasting sores", i.e., suppurative infections in which the ulcers do not heal for a long time. Its performance is clear and thin pus, the wound flat collapse, poor general condition. Modern Chinese medicine surgeon Mr. Zhao Bingnan has a side of astragalus cream, with astragalus thick decoction into a paste, add equal amount of honey, mixed evenly for use.

Upper gastrointestinal ulcers, such as gastric and duodenal ulcers, can be used astragalus Jianzhong Tang. Ingredients: astragalus 15g, gui zhi 10g, white peony 15g, licorice 6g, ginger 3 slices, red dates 12, maltose appropriate amount of brewing. It is mostly applied to those with chronic condition, mild anemia, spontaneous sweating and night sweating, fond of eating sweets, and dark tongue. If the body is thin, astragalus should not be used in large quantities, otherwise it will lead to bloating and loss of appetite.

3 Reference

(l) The use of Astragalus should pay attention to the patient's body type: Astragalus body - yellowish-white or yellowish-red vaguely, or yellowish-dark, both lack of luster. Swollen appearance, eyes without luster. The muscles are flabby, the abdominal wall is weak, like a cotton pillow, and there is no sense of resistance and pain and distension when pressed. The author calls it "Astragalus abdomen". Usually easy to sweat, afraid of wind, easily allergic to wind and cold, or nasal congestion, or coughing, or cold. Stools are not shaped, or dry and then loose. Easily swollen, especially feet, hands and feet easily numb. The tongue is pale and fat, and the tongue coating is moist.

(2) middle-aged and elderly people have more opportunities to apply astragalus: lack of exercise, malnutrition disease, aging, can lead to muscle flaccidity, the abdomen is particularly obvious, abdominal muscle atrophy and fat accumulation, and can be accompanied by edema and so on. This kind of person is the "Jin Gui Yao Liao" so-called "weak bones and skin" of the "Zunyong people". This kind of body type is especially common in middle-aged and old-aged people. Therefore, Astragalus is used more often in the middle-aged and elderly.

(3) astragalus must be served for a long time to see the effect: "Typhoid fever" does not use astragalus, "Jin Gui" rare four reverse, visible astragalus is internal injuries and miscellaneous diseases of the medicine. Mr. Yue Meizhong experience, "astragalus in neurological disorders such as paralysis and numbness of the elimination of muscle cuts are indeed effective, and the big disease must be from a few money to a few two, for the amount of a day, long-lasting service, the effect is effective". Astragalus to 10-30g for the common range, large doses up to 120g or more. I have seen hometown dermatology old Chinese medicine Sun old Mr. Astragalus with 500 g. But with too much can lead to chest tightness and abdominal distension, loss of appetite, and may appear dizziness and hot flashes. Especially muscle firm and tight, constipated people use less or use with caution. It should not be used by those who have excessive sweating with fever and red sore throat.

(4) Zhang Zhongjing used astragalus with a dosage segment: a large amount of astragalus to treat watery qi, yellow sweating, and swelling (5 taels), a medium amount to treat wind paralysis and bodily unkindness (3 taels), and a small amount to treat deficiency of deficiency labor (1? taels). Modern applications can be varied appropriately according to Zhang Zhongjing's experience with the drug. For example, for the treatment of swelling, the amount can be up to 60-100 g. For the treatment of hemiplegia, osteoarthritis pain, etc., 30-60 g can be used; for upper gastrointestinal ulcer, 15-30 g can be used.

(5) The pulse of Astragalus certificates has no specificity. Fangji Huangqi Tang is used for floating pulse, while Huangqi Shao Yao Gui Zhi Bitter Wine Tang is mainly used for sinking pulse, so the key to using Huangqi regardless of floating pulse and sinking pulse is to see whether the body shape and muscles are flabby or not.
