Powdered Sanqi, derived from the traditional Chinese herb Panax notoginseng, has various pharmacological effects and health benefits:

1. Promotes blood circulation and resolves blood stasis: Sanqi powder can enhance blood circulation and dissipate瘀 blood, making it particularly effective for treating traumatic injuries and pain caused by blood stasis.

2. Stops bleeding and relieves pain: Its unique hemostatic components can effectively shorten bleeding time and are commonly used as an adjunct in treating both external and internal bleeding, along with providing certain pain-relieving effects.

3. Strengthens the body: Long-term use of Sanqi powder can also enhance immune function, improve microcirculation, and help prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Although Sanqi powder offers numerous benefits, patients should consult a physician or pharmacist before use to determine suitability based on individual constitution and medical condition, avoiding blind consumption.
