Medicinal Benefits of P&Es
P&Es, known for their traditional Chinese medicinal uses, are explored for their potential health benefits. These roots might alleviate pain and swelling, prevent blood clotting, inhibit cancer cells, and act as antioxidants. While some use P&E for various conditions like cramps and psoriasis, scientific evidence supporting these uses is lacking. However, a company named E-Lix is investing in research to scientifically validate traditional Chinese medicine.
