Angelica sinensis

Angelica sinensis, also known as dong quai or Chinese angelica, is a herbaceous plant native to China, Japan, and Korea. It belongs to the Apiaceae family and has been widely used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries.

The roots of Angelica sinensis are the most commonly used parts as a dietary supplement. They are generally harvested in late autumn or early winter, as this is when their concentration of active compounds is highest. The roots are then dried and used whole or in powder form.

Angelica sinensis is considered a tonic herb in traditional Chinese medicine. It is renowned for its regulating properties on the female hormonal system and is often used to treat menstrual disorders, menstrual cramps, menopausal symptoms, and regulate the menstrual cycle. It is also used to stimulate blood circulation, contribute to normal immune function, and reduce joint pain.

The plant contains several active compounds, the main ones being ferulics, ligustilides, and polysaccharides. These compounds are believed to be responsible for the beneficial health effects attributed to Angelica sinensis.
