66 種のハーブをエビデンス順に掲載 · ページ 6 / 7
Sichuan Pepper 花椒
Beyond its culinary fame, used medicinally for abdominal pain, parasites, and toothache. Contains unique hydroxy-alpha-sanshool compounds with analgesic properties.
Plantain Seed (Che Qian Zi) 车前子
Not the banana-like fruit — this is a different plant. Used in TCM for urinary issues, eye health, and to clear heat. Rich in mucilage fiber for digestive health.
Marshmallow Root 药蜀葵
Named after its traditional use in making marshmallow candy. The root is a powerful demulcent — coats and soothes mucous membranes in the gut, throat, and urinary tract.
Wormwood 苦艾
Famous as the key ingredient in absinthe. Medicinally used for parasites, digestive issues, and in antimalarial research. Contains artemisinin — basis of Nobel Prize-winning malaria drug.
Angelica Root (European) 欧白芷
The European cousin of Dong Quai. Used for digestive complaints, respiratory issues, and as a circulatory stimulant. Popular in Scandinavian traditional medicine.
Javanese Turmeric 莪术
Distinct from common turmeric. Used in TCM for blood stasis, abdominal masses, and menstrual pain. Contains xanthorrhizol with antimicrobial and hepatoprotective properties.
Raw He Shou Wu 生何首乌
The unprocessed form — used as a laxative and for detoxification in TCM. More toxic than the prepared form. Associated with liver injury in some case reports. Use only under professional guidance.
Raw Licorice (Sheng Gan Cao) 生甘草
Unprocessed licorice — in TCM clears heat and detoxifies, different from honey-fried licorice which tonifies the spleen. Used for sore throat, cough, and poisoning.
Honey-Fried Astragalus 炙黄芪
Astragalus root prepared by stir-frying with honey. This processing changes its properties in TCM — makes it better for tonifying the middle jiao (digestive energy) versus raw astragalus for the exterior.
Gentian Root 龙胆草
One of the most bitter herbs known — used to stimulate digestive secretions and appetite. In TCM clears damp-heat from liver and gallbladder. Common in European digestive bitters.
