伝統的な使用法
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, 党参 (Dǎng Shēn) has been used for centuries. It is traditionally classified as a qi-tonifying herb that strengthens vitality. TCM practitioners use it to reinforce the body's defensive energy (wei qi). It supports the spleen and stomach — the foundation of post-natal qi production in TCM theory.
