Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Zhang Ziyi
Eclipta prostrata has the effects of cooling blood to stop bleeding, nourishing the liver and kidney, protecting the liver, and enhancing immune function. Eclipta prostrata is sour in taste and cold in nature; it can both nourish yin and cool the blood to stop bleeding. In clinical practice, it is used to treat conditions such as metrorrhagia, hematuria, bloody dysuria, epistaxis, and hemoptysis caused by yin deficiency with blood heat. With its sweet and sour taste and cold nature, Eclipta prostrata enters the liver and kidney meridians, effectively nourishing the yin of the liver and kidney, and also promoting hair darkening. It is clinically used to treat symptoms caused by liver-kidney yin deficiency, including dizziness, blurred vision, soreness and weakness of the lower back and knees, premature graying of hair, dim vision, and loose teeth. Eclipta prostrata promotes regeneration of liver cells, and when taken as a decoction, it helps protect and preserve liver function. It can restore degenerated immune organs to normal, thereby enhancing cellular immune function, while also helping eliminate free radicals and inflammatory substances in the body. Consult a doctor before use and follow medical instructions to avoid adverse reactions. If discomfort occurs, seek medical attention promptly.
