Dan Shen extract powder (Salvia miltiorrhiza root) – by Plum Flower
Dan Shen extract powder (Salvia miltiorrhiza root, red sage root) – by Plum Flower is one of the most commonly used herbs in TCM to activate (invigorate) blood circulation and dispel blood stasis. It lowers blood viscosity and increases perfusion of blood to the vital organs of the body (including the brain, heart, and kidneys) and has a broad scope of clinical applications, to include addressing:
- gynecological disorders characterized by blood stagnation, such as amenorrhea and irregular menstruation (often with sharp, stabbing, fixed abdominal pain) and postpartum abdominal pain;
- chest, epigastric, and abdominal pain characterized by stifling sensations and tightness or constriction that has at its root reduced blood flow to the heart.
- palpable masses in the abdomen as well as enlargement of the liver and spleen (due to blood stasis creating accumulations).
- traumatic injuries with bruising and swelling.
Additionally, Dan shen is commonly used in Chinese hospitals to treat various clinical symptoms and physical signs of cardiovascular disease, to include angina attacks, cardiac function, and high blood pressure; it has also been shown to positively effect related biomarkers (such as antioxidant indices, inflammation markers and blood lipids levels).
Dosage will vary depending on usage; usually 5-10 grams in decoction, up to a max of 30 grams. (Source: Chinese Medical Herbology and Pharmacology, Chen and Chen)
