The appearance of coptis chinensis
Coptis chinensis is a herb with high medicinal value. Many people don't know what Rhizoma Coptidis looks like. Coptis chinensis is also called chicken feet company. The leaves of Coptis chinensis are similar in shape to chicken feet, oval and triangular, and the middle part will split into feathers. Its petiole can grow to about 5 ~ 12 cm.
This plant is usually used as a medicine to treat diseases, the most obvious of which is the effect of clearing heat and purging fire. It can be used together with Pinellia ternata and Guawei to treat damp-heat syndrome. The decoction made of cinnabar, rehmannia root and other medicinal materials also has a good effect on the treatment of fire.
Berberine is the most important substance in Rhizoma Coptidis. This element will not directly enter the blood after being absorbed by the human body, but usually stays in the stomach for a long time, which has obvious effects on treating enteritis, gastritis and gastric ulcer. For dysentery, diarrhea, hepatitis B virus, cold and other symptoms, Coptis chinensis can be used to make tea or decoct.
However, Coptis chinensis is extremely cold, so it is best to take it according to the doctor's advice. The daily dosage should be controlled between 2 and 6 grams, and it is not advisable to take it for a long time, otherwise it will increase the burden on the stomach. Children with immature spleen and stomach or elderly people with weak spleen and stomach should not take Coptidis Rhizoma.
