Magical rheumatic grass, windproof grass, traditional good medicine

Rural areas are a “treasure trove” of plants and can be regarded as a natural paradise for them. There are a wide variety of plants here, and all kinds of medicinal plants also grow and multiply. Each plant tells its medicinal history and has become an indispensable part of rural life, helping many people in their daily lives.

Today, I’d like to share with you a traditional Chinese medicine commonly used by the common people. It looks like Agastache, but its smell is completely different. The scent of agastache is fragrant, but it has a foul smell. Therefore, in folk culture, people all call it “earth Agastache”. This plant that looks like agastache is the well-known “windproof grass” in rural areas, named for its medicinal effects of dispelling and preventing wind. In addition, “Guangfang feng”, “Pai Feng Cao”, “Luo Ma Yi”, and “Ma Yi Ye” are all its alternative names.

When it comes to windbreaks, there is a folk saying in China that goes, “A windbreak at home ensures peace every year.” Due to its ability to “block wind evil”, it is also known as “dirty grass” or “mud grass” in folk culture. Many elderly people hang it on their doors during the Dragon Boat Festival every year, symbolizing smooth sailing and no illness or disaster every year.

This windbreak is no ordinary plant. It is a traditional medicine commonly used by the common people and has extremely high medicinal value. The whole plant of the windproof herb can be used as medicine. It is usually collected and dried in summer and autumn for use as medicine. It is slightly warm and has a fragrant smell. It has the effects of dispelling wind and relieving the exterior, regulating qi and relieving pain, as well as eliminating dampness and relieving itching.

Silvery grass is effective in treating various conditions such as colds, fever, stomachache, gastroenteritis, sore throat, tonsillitis, watery diarrhea, rheumatoid arthritis, abscesses and sores, snake bites, skin eczema, neurodermatitis, and skin itching. It is a highly effective folk medicinal herb.

In addition, as the windproof grass has the functions of dispelling and preventing wind, and is also effective for rheumatism, it is a commonly used rheumatism medicine among the common people. Therefore, it is also known as the “Rheumatism Grass”.

Dear friends, is there this kind of windbreak in your hometown? Its shape resembles that of Agastache rugosa. It is the “rheumatism grass” of our common people. Those who know it are all looking for it. It is very precious, but unfortunately, it is rarely seen nowadays. If you meet them in your hometown, please protect them in time.
