Dong Quai (Angelica sinensis or Angelica polymorpha var. sinensis) is an herb with a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine. It’s primarily known for its potential medicinal properties related to women’s health. Studies have explored its effectiveness as a uterine tonic, menstrual flow-stimulant, anti-spasmodic, mild laxative, anti-inflammatory, and general promoter of health and vitality. Often referred to as “female ginseng,” Dong Quai supports various aspects of women’s wellbeing, particularly in addressing menstrual and menopausal symptoms. However, testing helps ensure this herb is appropriate for each situation. Dong Quai contains essential oil (0.4% to 0.7%), mainly consisting of the phthalides ligustilide and n-butylidene phthalide (n-butylidene phthalide has a penetrating characteristic fragrance, like all plant phthalides). It also contains phytosterols, ferulic acid, and coumarins (angelol, angelicone).
Dong Quai root has been shown in scientific studies to:
- Support normal female reproductive function
- Ease mild discomfort associated with menopause
- Help maintain healthy circulation
