The Japanese drink Sanqi as a drink!
As a country with a long life, most people attribute their longevity to a reasonable diet, eating fewer meals and loving seafood. In fact, when you walk into Japanese life, you will find that there is no shortage of ingredients in their daily diet, that is, Sanqi.
Many people regard Panax notoginseng as a blind medicinal material and dare not use it frequently. In Japan, Sanqi has become afternoon tea, which is not only loved by middle-aged and elderly people, but also respected by young people.
In China, people drink milk tea when they are hungry and sleepy, but the Japanese are using Sanqi to relieve their poverty. It is precisely because of long-term consumption of Panax notoginseng that Japanese people are healthier, their immunity is enhanced and their life expectancy is prolonged.

What happened to people who drank notoginseng for a long time?
1, preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases
Panax notoginseng has the function of regulating blood lipid and blood sugar, and Rb 1 in total saponins of Panax notoginseng reduces blood cholesterol and blood lipid. In the aspect of blood lipid metabolism, it can reduce the total lipid level, especially the triglyceride content.
Panax notoginseng saponins Rg 1 can reduce glucose hyperglycemia and cooperate with insulin to reduce glucose hyperglycemia. Ginsenoside Re can effectively reduce blood sugar concentration. Whether it is to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, or patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases can drink Sanqi.
2. Anti-cancer
Panax notoginseng saponins in Panax notoginseng can indeed inhibit the replication of cancer cells and malignant tumor cells to a certain extent, but this inhibition of replication is not a complete inhibition of 100%. Clinical experiments show that the inhibition rate is between 80% and 92%.
Panax notoginseng can report the number and activity of white blood cells and lymphocytes to a great extent, improve human immunity, strengthen facial system, and play a very good auxiliary role in the treatment of cancer and malignant tumors.
3. Hemostasis and hematopoiesis
Sanqi has the function of stopping bleeding. For various hemorrhagic diseases such as traumatic injury, notoginseng can be directly applied to the wound. For larger wounds, the pseudo-ginseng can be spread out and then wrapped with sterile gauze under pressure to stop bleeding quickly.
Panax notoginseng can promote the division and growth of various blood cells, increase the number, promote the proliferation and release process of bone marrow cells, increase the number and activity of bone marrow red cells, achieve the role of promoting hematopoiesis, and have obvious curative effect on promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis and promoting tissue regeneration.
4, delay aging
Aging involves many systems and organs of the body, and it is a complex process involving many genes and factors. Among them, immune cells secrete two cytokines, IL-2 and IL-6. IL-2 is a powerful T cell growth factor, and the decrease of its concentration is an important reason for immune aging. Different from IL-6, IL-6 is a powerful bone resorption stimulator and an important cause of osteoporosis in the elderly.
Experimental study: Panax Notoginseng can greatly increase the content of IL-2 and decrease the content of IL-6 in the aging body, that is, Panax Notoginseng saponins can increase the activity of endogenous antioxidant enzymes, scavenge oxygen free radicals in the body, protect the mDNA of liver cells, improve the immune function of the body and delay the aging of the body in many ways.

Precautions for drinking notoginseng.
1, it takes time
The best time to take Panax Notoginseng is on an empty stomach in the morning, with the best effect, which can promote the absorption of drugs in the gastrointestinal tract and also exert the efficacy.
Generally, it can be taken half an hour before meals, but it must be avoided before going to bed at night to avoid cerebrovascular diseases when sleeping at night. Proper amount of Panax notoginseng can reduce blood fat, blood sugar and blood pressure.
Step 2 don't overdo it
Although Panax notoginseng can be taken for a long time, it is a kind of medicine and a three-point poison after all. Proper use can give full play to its curative effect, but excessive use will also increase the burden on the body.
Therefore, it is recommended to eat 6-9 grams a day in batches.
3, sealed preservation
Panax notoginseng is used for powder treatment, which is very easy to get wet. Therefore, it is best to put notoginseng in a sealed plastic bag and put it in a dry and cool place.
Notoginseng is different from other traditional Chinese medicines. Other traditional Chinese medicines can be exposed to the sun for several hours in wet conditions, and their efficacy will not be affected. But Sanqi can't directly bask in the sun. If exposed to the sun for too long, a lot of volatile oil in Panax notoginseng will be lost and its efficacy will be affected.
