Basic Introduction of Xinhui Chenpi

Xinhui Chenpi is a dried tangerine peel produced in Xinhui District, Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province, and is a famous specialty of Xinhui. Due to its high medicinal value and being a traditional spice and seasoning delicacy, it has always enjoyed a high reputation. As early as the Song Dynasty, it had become one of the "broad commodities" of North South trade, marketed throughout the country and regions such as Southeast Asia and the Americas

1. expectorant and anti asthmatic effects: The volatile oil of tangerine peel (mainly composed of limonene) has a stimulating expectorant effect. The decoction and ethanol extract were used for tracheal perfusion in rabbits, and it was found that the perfusion flow rate was slightly faster, which seemed to have a dilating effect on the trachea. Chuanchenpi extract has anti asthmatic effects in both isolated tracheal experiments in guinea pigs and intravenous injection in anesthetized cats<2. Effect on gastrointestinal smooth muscle: The volatile oil of Chenpi has a mild stimulating effect on the gastrointestinal tract, which can promote the secretion of digestive juices and eliminate intestinal gas accumulation. Both decoction and ethanol extract can inhibit intestinal motility in rabbits in vitro. The inhibitory effect of tangerine peel is weaker than that of adrenaline, but more persistent, and this effect can be counteracted by acetylcholine. The effect of hesperidin on isolated intestinal muscle is biphasic, with a brief excitation followed by inhibition

3. Anti gastric ulcer effect: Subcutaneous injection of 100 or 500mg/kg/day of methyl hesperidin for 6 consecutive days has a significant inhibitory effect on experimental gastric ulcers

4. Effects on the heart: Chenpi decoction, ethanol extract, and hesperidin can stimulate the contraction of frog hearts in vitro and in vivo, but have little effect on heart rate. Higher doses have inhibitory effects. According to a report from Hunan Medical College, intravenous infusion of 40mg/kg methyl orange glycoside can reduce coronary resistance, increase flow, lower blood pressure, and slow heart rate in dogs in vivo for more than 30 minutes, but has no significant effect on myocardial oxygen consumption

5. Gallbladder effect: Subcutaneous injection of 100 or 500mg/kg of methyl hesperidin in anesthetized rats can increase the excretion of bile and bile solids

6. Effect of reducing capillary permeability: Hesperidin and methyl hesperidin can reduce capillary permeability, which has a vitamin P-like effect

It is said that Xinhui takes the place where the Xiong (n í) Zita can be seen as the field area. It is said that the Huicheng Meijiang Saikou Wai (originally a 50 mu mudflat) is the origin. This is the intersection of Xijiang River and Tanjiang River. It is also said that the palm anemone growing here has the best leaf shape and the most upright petiole. The highest quality variety of Xinhui oranges is the soft branch shaped "big seed oil body", and the most authentic and high-quality ones are produced using circular branch seedlings and organic cultivation methods

Mrs. Huang, also from a prestigious family, was well read in poetry and literature since childhood, proficient in pharmacology. In 1229 AD during the reign of Emperor Lizong of the Southern Song Dynasty (when the capital had already moved to Lin'an), she ordered to serve Empress Dowager Yang for four years. During this period, Empress Dowager Yang suffered from breast disease, and the imperial doctors were helpless. Huang Guanghan used a specially made medicinal herb called Chenpi, which was cultivated in some specific areas of Xinhui (now known as Xinhui Dahonggan), and handed it to his wife, Mrs. Mi, for her treatment. Mi used this skin as a royal medicine and slowly cured Empress Dowager Yang's breast disease
