Panax notoginseng powder, also known as Panax notoginseng powder, is a very precious traditional Chinese medicine. Its most prominent effect is to replenish blood, with a very good effect. In addition to this, Panax notoginseng powder can also lower blood pressure and blood lipids, and has a good nourishing effect on the body. However, no matter which kind of medicine is used, in addition to understanding its benefits, attention should also be paid to relevant contraindications and the correct method of use.

1, Do not drink if ‘absorption is poor’

Panax notoginseng powder should not be consumed with broad beans, fish, and cold and sour foods, as these foods can greatly reduce the body’s absorption of the nutritional substances in Panax notoginseng powder. Therefore, it is recommended not to eat these foods when taking Panax notoginseng powder.

2, Do not drink during a cold

People with colds should not take Panax notoginseng. Panax notoginseng powder is warm in nature. If a person with wind-heat cold takes Panax notoginseng powder, it may lead to an exacerbation of heat sensation, so it is not advisable to take it. However, it can be taken by those with wind-cold cold.

3, Do not drink when sick

Long-term use of Panax notoginseng powder can soften blood vessels, promote blood health, and effectively prevent various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. As people age, various functions of the body decline, so do not wait until you are sick to start taking Panax notoginseng powder.

4, Do not over-consume Panax notoginseng powder

Panax notoginseng powder should not be consumed in large quantities; 6-9 grams per day, taken in divided doses.

5, Do not drink during the menstrual period

It is not advisable for women to consume Panax notoginseng powder during their menstrual period, as Panax notoginseng powder has the effect of activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, known as the ‘first sacred medicine’. If it is taken during the menstrual period, it is easy to cause excessive bleeding. However, if it is a blood stasis type of menstrual disorder, it can be used to regulate the menstrual cycle by activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis with Panax notoginseng powder.

6, Do not drink during pregnancy

Women should not consume Panax notoginseng powder during pregnancy. Because Panax notoginseng has powerful blood-activating and blood-pressure-lowering effects, which are not conducive to the health of pregnant women and their babies. But if there is excessive blood loss after childbirth, using Panax notoginseng to replenish blood can be the best choice, as it has the effect of hemostasis and removing blood stasis, and can also be used to improve the physical condition of postpartum women.

7, Do not drink if allergic

Before taking Panax notoginseng powder, we need to understand our own body and see if there will be any allergic reactions. If there are allergic reactions, they must be stopped in a timely manner. However, people who are allergic to Panax notoginseng are relatively rare, so there is no need to worry too much.

8, Panax notoginseng should not be taken ‘only when thirsty’.

Taking Panax notoginseng powder must be done consistently over a long period of time; sporadically taking it like ‘fishing for three days and drying the net for two days’ will not achieve the desired health preservation effects.
