The Efficacy and Functions of Radish Seed

Radix Raphani (Lai Fu Zi) is neutral in nature and enters the Lung meridian. It has the effect of lowering Qi and relieving wheezing. It is highly effective in stopping cough and resolving phlegm, especially for excessive phlegm and persistent cough caused by damp-phlegm or excess cold, due to its dispersing action. It effectively treats indigestion and abdominal distension caused by food stagnation. It promotes digestion by regulating Qi, clears heat, and detoxifies, thereby assisting in treating symptoms such as bad breath and bitter taste in the mouth. It can also be used to treat diarrhea. It is recommended to use under the guidance of a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner to promote health.
