What are the Benefits and Functions of Fresh Motherwort?
Fresh motherwort has a good health-promoting effect on cardiovascular health, which can promote coronary flow. In addition, proper use by women can help stimulate and contract the uterus, and it also has a certain beauty and skincare effect. It is commonly used in the treatment of fading spots. If women have menstrual pain, they can also take fresh motherwort, which has an effect of relieving menstrual pain.
Motherwort can increase coronary flow. Intravenous injection of motherwort preparations significantly increases coronary flow in anesthetized dogs, reduces coronary resistance, slows heart rate, and reduces output and left ventricular work.
Motherwort extract and decoction have a strong and lasting stimulatory effect on the uterus, which can not only enhance its contraction but also increase its tension and contraction rate. It can also be used for those with trauma and internal blood stasis.
If you persevere in using a whitening and spot-removing cream with motherwort to massage and wash your face, you can also take motherwort soup for internal and external treatment. Most spots can effectively fade, and even severe ones can be lightened.
For women with menstrual pain, a combination of motherwort with Corydalis, Angelica sinensis, white peony, Cyperus rotundus, and other blood-enriching and pain-relieving herbs can be used. The dosage of motherwort should be larger, usually around 30 grams, and most often has significant effects.
For postpartum abdominal pain, minimal bleeding, or blood clots caused by weak uterine contraction, motherwort is often combined with Angelica sinensis, white peony wine, mugwort, Chuanxiong, and charcoalized hawthorn. For those with a tendency to coldness, added ginger and Radix Linderae can be used, and the effect is relatively ideal.
