The efficacy and function of iron chopsticks

1. Ornamental value

Generally speaking, all flowers have ornamental value, except for some flowers that are really unsightly in appearance or have a horrible smell. Tiekuaizi's name is just a bit weird, she looks very manly, but in terms of appearance, she is still a charming little girl. In foreign countries, this flower blooms in winter and is called the Christmas rose. It is said to be a flower dedicated to Jesus. This flower looks pretty good, no wonder it has such a good reputation.

After being introduced to China, it actually abandoned its long-standing tradition and began to bloom in the spring. I don’t know whether it was due to quality issues or weather issues. After entering China, it has taken the high-end route. We rarely see it on the roadside, but usually in private courtyards and taller courtyards. Some of the iron chopsticks look ordinary, but because it likes cool conditions, it will grow together with a lot of flowers or under big trees. Its peculiar leaves add some interest. As for the ones with large and colorful flowers, they are planted together with flowers that are equally beautiful as "equally matched", such as allium, iris, etc., so that there are flowers blooming in all four seasons. Moreover, the flowering period of the iron chopstick plant is much longer than that of ordinary flowers. When the petals fall, its sepals can also act as petals for people to appreciate.

2Medicinal value

The iron chopsticks have many medicinal values. The most interesting one is that it can be used to treat sneezing, so it is also called sneezeweed. It is said that you can pick its roots, wash them, grind them into powder, and then just inhale them, and you will be able to sneeze comfortably. I am really skeptical about the authenticity of this story. In fact, no matter what plant roots are ground into powder, people will sneeze if they inhale them. The more regular effects include cardiotonic effect, anti-tumor effect, and increased blood pressure, but these are still under research, and it is still a mystery when they can be used in large quantities in clinical practice.

3. Scientific research value

The iron chopstick is a plant unique to the western region of my country. It is very valuable for research and is currently a third-level protected plant in Gansu. So if you accidentally see this on the street, don't be ruthless.
