What is Chinese Angelica?
Chinese Angelica, also known as Dong Quai or Dang Gui, has long been an important part of traditional Chinese herbal knowledge. The nickname "female ginseng" also refers to the special role traditionally attributed to Angelica sinensis in this context.
This plant from the umbellifer family is mainly native to central and western China. Although it can reach an impressive height of up to one metre, it may appear rather modest at first glance from a European perspective. Its double umbels and greenish-white flowers are part of the plant’s typical appearance. The aromatic, sweet and slightly pungent roots have long been central to its traditional use.
At Phönix der Lebenskraft, we draw on this traditional knowledge and use only carefully selected Angelica sinensis roots for our products.
More than “just” a traditional women’s herb
The first written record of Dong Quai dates back to 2800 BC, before the beginning of our era. Since that time, and possibly even longer, the plant has been part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In this context, the roots are traditionally attributed special importance. As Dong Quai is associated with the topic of blood in TCM, the plant remains closely linked to Asian botanical knowledge.
In TCM, Angelica sinensis is classified as warm, sweet and pungent and is assigned to the functional circles of liver, heart and spleen. This classification describes the traditional TCM perspective and should not be understood as a health-related claim.
Chinese Angelica contains various naturally occurring plant constituents, including essential oils, tannins, bitter iridoids, coumarins, ferulic acid, lactones, polyacetylenes, phytosterols, tannins, valeric acid, as well as vitamins A, B12, E and niacin.
