In Chinese medicine, Notoginseng Root is a favorite remedy for both internal and external bleeding. It is taken internally to quell nosebleeds and blood in the stools, urine, or lungs. Applied externally, it's used to relieve pain and swelling from fractures, sprains, bruises, cuts, and wounds. It's also occasionally used as a treatment for acute attacks of Crohn's disease, an inflammatory bowel condition.
Recently, Notoginseng has also shown promise as a treatment for angina (chest pain due to poor circulation in the heart muscle) and high blood pressure.
Tienchi Ginseng (Panax notoginseng) This type of ginseng is considered in Chinese medicine to be specific to the liver and stomach, as well as having many blood and circulation effects. It is strongly antiviral and is considered to be directly active against hepatitis viruses. In the blood, Tienchi moves blood through the body transforming congealed blood and stopping bleeding. It is especially effective in treating hematomas and traumatic injury with bruising. At ISIS we use it for hypertension, menorrhagia and uterine fibroids that cause excessive bleeding.
