Men's kidney tonic Chinese medicine

If a man has a bad kidney, it will easily affect his daily work and sex life. Therefore, many men will supplement their kidneys when they have symptoms of kidney deficiency. However, as we all know, food supplements for the kidneys take a long time to take effect and require long-term persistence. Chinese medicine is loved by many people because of its quick effect. So, what are the Chinese medicines for men to supplement their kidneys? The five most common ones are shared with you.

1. Cistanche deserticola. Cistanche deserticola contains rich trace bioalkali and crystalline neutral substances, which can nourish the kidney and strengthen yang, moisten the intestines and promote bowel movements. It is used for impotence and premature ejaculation, infertility due to cold uterus in women, leucorrhea and hemorrhage, sequelae of polio, weakness in the elderly, dry intestines and constipation after illness and childbirth. It can improve the function of the pituitary-adrenal cortex system and promote antibody formation. The daily dosage of this product is 10g-30g for oral administration.

2. Cuscuta. Cuscuta contains rich glycosides and vitamin A-like substances. It has the effects of nourishing the kidney and essence, nourishing the liver and improving eyesight. It is used for waist and knee pain, spermatorrhea, diabetes, urinary incontinence, blurred vision and other symptoms. Cuscuta is one of the main ingredients in the patent medicines such as Zibu Jianshen Pills and Wuzi Yanzong Pills. It has the effects of contracting the uterus and resisting diuresis. The daily dosage of this product is 10g-15g for oral administration in decoction.

3. Cordyceps sinensis. It is warm in nature, sweet in taste, and has the effect of nourishing the kidney and lung. It is a precious herbal medicine that can balance yin and yang. Its efficacy mainly comes from cordycepin, which can nourish the liver and kidney. For example, "Compendium of Materia Medica" says that it "protects the lungs and benefits the kidneys." "Yao Xing Kao" also says: "Cordyceps sinensis can secrete essence and benefit qi, and specifically nourish the gate of life." "Ganyuan Xiaoshi" also says: "Soak a few pieces in wine and eat them to treat pain between the waist and knees, and it has the effect of benefiting the kidney." It can nourish lung yin and kidney yang, and is a product that can balance yin and yang. It is a relatively precious Chinese herbal medicine. Although Cordyceps sinensis is a tonic and strengthening Chinese medicine with few side effects, few people use it directly in prescriptions. For those with kidney deficiency, it is best to stew Cordyceps with meat such as lean pork, chicken or duck, or even fresh placenta, to make a tonic food, which is more beneficial.

4. Eucommia ulmoides. It is warm in nature, sweet and slightly spicy in taste, can nourish the liver and kidney, strengthen the tendons and bones, and is most suitable for people with back pain, weak feet and knees caused by kidney deficiency, paralysis of the lower limbs in children, and recurrent miscarriage caused by kidney deficiency in women. As the Ming Dynasty physician Miao Xiyong explained, "Eucommia ulmoides is used to treat back pain, strengthen the essence and qi, strengthen the tendons and bones, and relieve foot pain. The waist is the home of the kidneys, and if it cannot move, the kidneys will be weak. Eucommia ulmoides can make up for the deficiency and benefit the kidneys."

5. Epimedium. It has the effect of nourishing the kidney and strengthening yang. The extract of epimedium has the effect of male hormone and can promote semen secretion. It nourishes the kidney and yang, strengthens the tendons and bones, and removes wind and dampness. It is used for impotence and spermatorrhea, atrophy of tendons and bones, rheumatism and pain, numbness and spasm; and menopausal hypertension.
