Basic Introduction of Jingxi Tianqi

Tianqi, also known as "Sanqi", is a famous specialty of Guangxi and Yunnan. It is a perennial herb of the Panax genus in the Araliaceae family, used for medicinal purposes on its underground stem.

. It was originally native to the mountains, and was discovered and adopted by the Chinese people long ago, and then turned to artificial cultivation. Because this plant usually has three petioles per plant, and each petiole often has seven leaves, it is commonly known as "Sanqi". According to the Qing Dynasty's "Guishun Prefecture Annals," "Sanqi... those produced in Tianzhou are the best." Volume 3 of the Qing Dynasty's "Baise Hall Annals" also states that because Sanqi actually comes from Tianzhou, it is commonly known as "Tianqi"

The production method of Jingxi Tianqi

The processing of Tianqi should also be done properly. After digging it up, wash and cut off the roots (roots can also be used as medicine by drying them in the sun), expose them to sunlight, and rub them while drying until the roots are completely dry and there are no traces left even when bitten with teeth. If processed to the final stage and rubbed with small wooden boards, its surface will be smoother and rounder. In case of rainy weather, use charcoal fire to dry it, with a suitable heat of 30 to 35 degrees Celsius. It is also necessary to frequently flip and rub while baking, without stopping the fire in the middle, to avoid a decrease in temperature and the phenomenon of "sweating back". A large amount of Tianqi should be stored in a dry and ventilated place to prevent moisture, mold, or insect infestation; A small amount can be stored for a long time in a sealed bottle

How can Jingxi Tianqi distinguish between true and false

Tianqi has a very strong blood stasis removing effect. Legend has it that a butcher killed a pig and obtained a large pot of pig blood. Due to a cut on his hand, he urgently took Tianqi powder and applied it to the wound. In a hurry, he scattered some Tianqi powder into the clotting pig blood. Soon, the pig's blood turned into blood. Therefore, the method for distinguishing the authenticity of Tianqi between sessions is commonly used in coagulation tests. If it can turn into blood, it is true Tianqi; otherwise, it is false Tianqi

Awards and honors of Jingxi Tianqi

Tianqi is a relic plant of the Tertiary ancient tropical period, which is now only planted in some counties of provinces and regions such as Guangxi and Yunnan in China.

. Tianqi from Guangxi is distributed in Tiandong, Tianyang, Jingxi, Debao and other places, especially Jingxi, which is known as the "hometown of Tianqi" due to its high production and good quality. The tasting and eating methods of Tianqi in Jingxi should be different according to the condition of the patient: for dispersing blood, stopping bleeding, and relieving pain, raw Tianqi should be taken; To replenish blood and nourish the body, take ripe ginseng. The method of making ripe ginseng is to cut raw ginseng into slices, soak them in salt water, dry them in the sun, and grind them into fine powder. There is also a method of placing raw Tianqi in a small bowl, which is filled with clean water to the extent that Tianqi can absorb moisture. The water is then steamed until soft, sliced, fried until it turns yellow, crispy but not burnt, and ground into a powder to ripen Tianqi. Both methods are acceptable. Shutianqi has the effects of tonifying qi, promoting blood circulation, replenishing blood, removing blood stasis, and generating new energy.
