The main value of Dendrobium officinale

The main value of Dendrobium officinale

Medical value

This is the most important function and the one it is most proud of. It has been recorded in ancient books long ago. For example, one medical book describes the plant's benefits for the kidneys, and the ancients used it as a drink instead of tea. In addition, a classic book says that it is cool and refreshing in nature, beneficial to the human lungs, and can relieve coughs, etc. There are many similar records, such as "Ben Jing", "Tang Ben Cao", etc., which will not be elaborated here one by one. In modern times, people have discovered many new uses of it, which can be summarized as follows.

One is the antipyretic effect. This plant has very good analgesic and antipyretic effects, and produces very few side effects.

Secondly, it affects the cardiovascular system and lowers blood pressure, which is very meaningful for the human body.

Third, it has effects on various organs of the human body. For example, it can nourish the stomach, moisten the lungs, etc.

This plant is available in both dried and fresh forms as a medicinal material. Here we mainly talk about the production method of dried Dendrobium. First, take the dried plant and soak it in water. After it is about 80% soaked, remove the excess roots and black branches, cut the rest into sections and dry them in the sun.

Environmental Value

Every plant has this value, and this one is no exception. We said above that it is epiphytic in other places, so we can know that its survival ability is still very strong. It can survive well even without human management. Its significance to the surrounding environment is very great.

Ornamental value

This aspect is not the most important, so I will just mention it briefly. Although most of this plant's colors are very monotonous, some people like this refreshing green.
