Dong Quai Root Powder
What is Dong Quai Root Powder? Dong quai (Angelica sinensis) root has been used as a spice, tonic, and medicine in China, Korea, and Japan for more than a thousand years. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) still uses it a lot, but it is generally mixed with other plants. TCM practitioners often give dong quai to women with reproductive problems, like dysmenorrhea or painful periods, to improve blood flow. People sometimes refer to dong quai as "female ginseng." Even though there aren't many scientific studies on dong quai, it is sometimes recommended to treat cramps, unpredictable menstrual cycles, occasional periods, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and signs of menopause. How do I use Dong Quai Root Powder? Multiple formulations of the plant are available, with significant variations in dosage. Daily intake ranges from 3 to 15 g for crude root extract by decoction, 1 to 2 g for pulverized root three times daily, and 500 mg for tablets up to six times daily. Dong Quai Root Powder benefits
