🌿 Folk Prescriptions

Many women suffer from irregular menstruation, including irregular menstrual cycles, abnormal flow, and physical discomfort during menstruation. Paying attention to diet and regularly consuming loofah can help regulate menstrual issues.
Traditional Chinese herbal texts record that loofah has a neutral nature and sweet taste, with functions of unblocking meridians, promoting blood circulation, cooling blood, and detoxifying. Ancient practitioners believed that mature loofah has fibrous veins resembling human meridians, thus using its energy to guide and unblock the body’s meridians, ensuring smooth flow of qi and blood, leading naturally to regular menstruation.
Methods:
1. Use one piece of loofah sponge, boil with one bowl of water, and drink regularly to regulate irregular menstruation.
2. Dry loofah seeds, boil with one bowl of water. After boiling, add a small amount of brown sugar and warm yellow wine for consumption. Take once in the morning and once in the evening—effective for regulating menstruation.
3. Use one mature loofah, burn it completely to ash, grind into fine powder. Take 9 grams each time, mixed with saline water. This helps treat excessive menstrual bleeding.
Loofah can be cooked into various delicious dishes. Moreover, loofah sponge, seeds, and mature loofah are all valuable resources!
