Chen pi – dried tangerine peel

Description

Dried tangerine peel is the dried mature peel of the citrus plant and its cultivated varieties in the Rutaceae family.

Chen pi contains volatile oil, hesperidin, nobiletin, flavonoids, alkaloids and trace elements such as potassium, magnesium, zinc, and strontium.

Droed tangerine peel has multiple effects such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-tumor, digestion-promoting, expectorant, liver-protecting, blood pressure-lowering and neuroprotective.

It has been used in diet and medicine in Chinese culture for thousands of years.

Tangerine peel is pungent and bitter in taste, warm in nature, and belongs to the spleen and lung meridians.

It can regulate qi and harmonize the middle jiao, reduce adverse reactions and stop vomiting, and dry dampness and resolve phlegm.

Chen pi can not only be used as a medicine, it can be used alone or in combination with other ingredients or medicinal materials.

For example: it can be used with tonic herbs to replenish, with laxative herbs to purge, with ascending herbs to ascend, and with descending herbs to descend.

It can also be used to make a tea, cook porridge, stew soup and make a fruit drink.

For example, Chen pi and ginger are commonly used to remove phlegm and relieve cough.

They can reduce adverse reactions and stop vomiting, promote qi and resolve phlegm, and dispel cold and relieve cough.
