It is used in Spirit and Jing tonics to nourish the brain and strengthen the mind. Polygonatum sibericum is believed to be restorative to mental vitality, especially when the mind has been overworked, over-stressed or is in a state of exhaustion. It is not a stimulant, and thus does not have instant effects. However, taken over a relatively short period of time (a week to a month), this herb is a potent mind tonic. Its effects are long lasting. And if consumed regularly, Polygonatum can prevent mental and emotional breakdown when you are experiencing heavy mental loads. Regular use sharpens memory, concentration, wakefulness and focus. It is a great herb for students, executives, airplane pilots, emergency room personnel, etc. It can be combined with Panax Ginseng, Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax), Deer Antler, Ganoderma, Walnut, Ginkgo biloba, Schizandra, Lycium, Ant, Gynostemma, and various Spirit tonics such as Asparagus root, Spirit Poria and Pearl, etc., as a component in a super brain tonic. For people with weak digestion (deficient Spleen), the herb may be mixed with Astragalus, White Atractylodes, Poria and Codonopsis. These herbs may be added to the above described formulas to improve digestion of the Kidney tonic formulations. Primary Combinations Combine with: 1. Lycium fruit to tonify Kidney yin 2. Codonopsis to tonify Spleen qi 3. Glehnia and Ophiopogon root to tonify the yin of the Stomach and Lungs 4. Astragalus root, Ophiopogon root, Raw Rehmannia and Trichosanthes root for diabetes 5. Polygonum, Salvia, Acorus and Polygala to tonify the brain Varieties and Grading All Polygonatum sibericum I have come across in America is of equivalent quality. In spite of the fact that its name indicates that the herb is yellow, it is not. It is black and looks almost exactly like prepared Rehmannia. Contraindications This herb may be difficult to digest by people with damp, deficient or cold Spleen conditions. In that case, add the Qi tonics to the formula. Back to Top |
