Introduction: Dandelions in people's impressions, often ethereal, weak representatives, more is used to pin some humanistic ideas. But what you don't know is that since ancient Chinese medicine, various medical experts have not given up the research on the medicinal value of dandelion, and it is quite fruitful, and many Chinese medicine recipes have indeed appeared dandelion figures.
But as far as modern medicine is concerned, there has been a further extension of the value and role of dandelion in medicinal use, and many unexpected effects of dandelions have indeed been found through modern advanced analytical instruments and laboratory environments.
Studies have shown that dandelions can kill 98% of cancer cells in 2 days, is it true?
As early as 2012, scientists simulated the effect of dandelion components on cancer cells in the laboratory.
Scientists were pleasantly surprised to find that some saponins and other endemic substances in dandelions, after contact with cancer cells and tumor cells, can inhibit the activity of cancer cells at a rapid speed, reduce the speed of their division, and then achieve the effect of shrinking tumors and eliminating cancer. The anti-cancer effect can reach about 98%. If the ingredients in dandelion can be further purified and made into an idealized agent, it can also be used as a new direction for cancer treatment.
Hearing this, some friends may fantasize that if everyone eats dandelions every day in the future, will it be able to completely prevent cancer? If cancer patients eat a little dandelion, can they also cure the disease?
Since dandelions can kill cancer cells, can we rely on eating dandelions to fight cancer?
The doctor replied: It is difficult to achieve.
Although as far as the above is concerned, some components in dandelions do kill cancer cells.
But this is achieved in a laboratory environment, where the dandelion component comes into direct contact with the tumor foci and eventually kills it. But the human environment is not like this, for some patients with advanced tumors, cancer cells spread, itself to find these lesions and mark is very difficult things, expect dandelion to be able to find cancer cells on their own and break one by one, is obviously unrealistic.
Not only that, we take dandelions, often by oral means, dandelions in our stomach, after entering our stomach, through a series of digestion of stomach acid, intestines, etc., which can supply hair cells to absorb the active ingredients will also be greatly reduced, naturally can not play what anti-cancer, killing cancer cells effect.
Therefore, although cancer can theoretically be solved and killed by dandelion ingredients, in terms of practical application, it is still necessary to consider the accuracy of the dandelion active ingredient and the durability of the drug, which is not an overnight thing.
But as I mentioned above, this can at least be used as a new direction for cancer treatment, and it is not impossible to develop drugs that can actually eliminate cancer lesions through research and purification. Please also hope for cancer patients and wait patiently.
Although dandelion cannot play any obvious effect on cancer elimination for the time being, as a long-standing Chinese herbal medicine, it still exists in the treatment and nourishment of human diseases.
What other specific health functions does dandelion have?
According to the records of the "Compendium of Materia Medica", dandelion tastes bitter, sweet, cold, attributed to the liver meridian, stomach meridian, so on some liver depression on fire, stomach fire symptoms, etc., have obvious relaxation and dredging effects.
For women, dandelions also have the function of unclogging the breast and reducing the risk of breast disease. Symptoms such as breast nodules, swollen and painful milk veins can be properly alleviated by drinking dandelion soaking water.
In addition, not only Chinese medicine on the use of dandelion great recognition, Western medicine also praise dandelion, according to the composition analysis of Western medicine shows that the nucleoside substances in dandelion, for a variety of bacteria have a very obvious inhibitory effect, and also has liver protection, choleretic, restriction of toxins in the body, prevention of tumor diseases and other multiple effects. For health enthusiasts, taking some dandelions properly does have a lot of benefits.
But it should be noted that the efficacy of dandelion is good, but it is a medicine after all, the ancients often said that "it is a medicine three points of poison", so dandelion is good, but it is not suitable for everyone, there are still some people, still have to eat less, or even do not eat dandelion is better.
Who is not suitable for dandelion health?
The first is the person who is cold. As mentioned above, dandelion cold, and belongs to the cold of the thing, if the cold person takes dandelion for a long time, continue to stimulate the stomach and intestines, but will cause stomach cold, stomach cold, abdominal pain and other digestive diseases, or cautious eating is better.
The second is people with allergies. Dandelions are also one of the allergens, so there are also many people who are allergic to dandelions, and for such people, it is also not recommended to contact dandelions.
Finally, some pregnant women, or children who are too young, for health and safety reasons, do not recommend taking dandelions, and please consider your own discretion and selectively take health care.
Conclusion: Although for now, dandelions do have the effect of killing cancer cells, but in terms of clinical applications, there is still a way to go, and cancer patients are not to give up hope. At the same time, the other health effects of dandelions are also worth affirming, and proper use can also bring certain benefits to the health of the body.
