My father has a hemangioma and is seeing a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) doctor, who said he could take some bone-knitting herb (Drynaria fortunei). What are the effects of the Chinese herb Drynaria?

Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. He Haochen
The main effects of Drynaria fortunei are reinforcing the kidney and strengthening bones, as well as protecting the cardiovascular system. Its extract promotes phosphorus deposition, increases blood calcium and phosphorus levels, enhances alkaline phosphatase activity, stimulates the synthesis of proteins and proteoglycans, and inhibits collagen protein synthesis, thereby exerting a kidney-tonifying and bone-strengthening effect. Drynaria fortunei contains abundant saccharic acids, dihydroflavonoid glycosides, steroidal lactones, and other compounds that effectively reduce blood lipids and cholesterol, improve vascular permeability and elasticity, thus protecting the cardiovascular system and effectively preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases.
