DONG QUAI 520 mg 100 CAPS - NOW FOODS - Code 4655 
Dong Quai has been a highly treasured herb in the Orient for several thousand years. Dong Quai is also known as Chinese Angelica and is primarily known for it's uses in treating women's problems including lack of sexual desire, the symptoms of menopause, cramps and PMS. It aids in increasing the effects of hormones in both men and women and is widely used as an aphrodisiac.

Dong Quai is particularly useful in helping to end hot flashes and menstrual cramps. It is also used as a liver tonic and in treating sciatica and shingles. It is one of the most widely consumed herbs in China, used as frequently as ginseng and licorice.

Dong quai has been used by the Chinese for more than two thousand years, as a strengthener of the heart, lung, spleen, liver and kidney meridians and as a tonic for the blood. It is traditionally characterized as a warm atmospheric energy that promotes blood circulation. It has also been indicated for constipation, migraines, pain and liver disorders.

Dong Quai Balances estrogen levels and has the ability to reduce your estrogen levels if they are too high and can increase them if they are too low. Dong quai is an antispasmodic that eases cramps and other symptoms of PMS. It dilates your blood vessels to increase flow during your monthly cleansing and helps replenish blood after your period has ended. It takes the average woman up to18 months to conceive, and an herb like dong quai may be helpful.

It can treat iron deficiency and anemia due to it's cobalt content, which is thought to increase the hemoglobin content of your blood. Hemoglobin is the protein in your blood that contains iron and carries oxygen to cells and removes carbon dioxide.  It can be very helpful with skin problems, as dong quai's effect on the blood and circulation prompts healing for common skin conditions like eczema and rosacea, dermatitis, hives and vitiligo.
