Dr. He Haochen
Mugwort water has clinical benefits in regulating qi and blood, relieving cough, and alleviating asthma, as well as detoxifying and enhancing skin beauty. Mugwort has a relatively mild nature; when boiled into a liquid and consumed, it effectively regulates the flow of qi and blood, helping to alleviate menstrual irregularities and dysmenorrhea in women. Mugwort also contains abundant aromatic compounds and volatile oils. Patients with pneumonia or bronchitis may effectively reduce inflammation in the lungs and bronchi after using mugwort, while also experiencing bronchodilation and accelerated expulsion of phlegm. Additionally, drinking mugwort tea promotes the body's toxin metabolism and prevents toxins from accumulating on the skin surface.
