Angelica sinensis
Botanical Marvel:
Originating from China, Dong quai (Angelica sinensis) is a prized herb in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), boasting over two millennia of use. Often dubbed "female ginseng," its root powder, rich in wellness-supporting qualities, shines alone or blended in herbal formulations.
Native Habitat:
Belonging to the Apiaceae family, Dong quai thrives in the cool, damp soils of high-altitude regions in China and Japan. A petite perennial, it grows up to three feet and blooms delicate clusters of white flowers. Harvested in autumn, its roots are a sought-after remedy in TCM.
TCM Tradition:
"Dong quai" translates to "state of return" in Chinese. Legend has it that an angelic vision directed a monk to employ dong quai to combat a devastating plague. This herb holds a significant place in TCM, especially in supporting women's health.
Precautions:
Exercise caution during pregnancy, preferably under professional healthcare guidance. Avoid use with blood-thinning medications. Prior consultation with a healthcare practitioner is advisable, ensuring safe herbal integration.
