Identification of safflower and saffron
One day, I went to a large pharmacy and asked if there was any saffron. The salesperson came up with ordinary safflower. Many people usually use safflower and saffron as a medicine. So what is the real saffron? Where is the difference between safflower and saffron? First, botany and safflower are not a family genus. Crimson is an iris family, a monocotyledonous plant, is a perennial herbaceous plant, generally only flowering seeds, relying on bulbs, originating in Spain and other Mediterranean countries, in history, our country has been imported from Western countries, it is called Xihong flower. Imported saffron is imported from India through the interior of Tibet, it is also called saffron. It is a misunderstanding that saffron is named after its origin. In fact, Tibet does not produce saffron. The name of its regular medicine should be saffron or saffron. Safflower, also known as grass safflower, thorn safflower, etc., belonging to the family Asteraceae, is an annual herbaceous plant of the dicotyledonous plant, which reproduces by seeds. The medicinal site of saffron is its red pistil, with oily luster, slender linear, about 3 cm long, gas-specific, slightly bitter taste. The saffron filaments were immersed in water, and the leached oranges sank in a straight line and gradually spread. In a short period of time, the whole glass of water was dyed yellow and there was no precipitation. The medicinal site of safflower is its dry tubular corolla, which is full of flowers and is about 1.5 centimeters long. It is orange-red and has aroma and slightly bitter taste. Second, from the perspective of drug prices, the difference between the two or even thousands of times. Crimson is a valuable gynecological medicine. It was praised by the Spaniards as “red goldâ€. In history, our country has been relying on imports. It is used only by courts and officials and is expensive. China began introducing safflower in 1965, and it has been successfully introduced in 22 provinces and cities including Beijing, Zhejiang, Shanghai and Henan. However, due to the increase in demand, the market gap is still large, and the transaction price in the herbal medicine market has been stable at every kilogram. 5000 to 8,000 yuan, pharmacies retail price of 15,000 yuan per kilogram. Safflower is an ordinary Chinese medicinal material. Its planting area is large, and its yield is much higher than that of safflower. The market price is only about 20 yuan per kilogram. Third, from the perspective of pharmacodynamics, according to the “Pharmacopoeia†records, saffron has the effects of promoting blood circulation, cooling blood, detoxifying the body, and relieving depression and tranquilizing the nerves. It is used for the treatment of amenorrhea, postpartum silt resistance, depression, depression, and convulsions. It also has a certain effect on liver cancer, spleen cancer, kidney cancer, stomach cancer, and uterine cancer. The function of safflower is similar to that of saffron in certain aspects, such as promoting blood circulation, nourishing blood, removing freckle, and relieving swelling and pain, but the efficacy of saffron under the same dose conditions is many times that of safflower. . However, in the case that saffron is hard to buy or is not economically available, safflower can be used instead. Pregnant woman disabled. In addition, saffron is also used in a large number of food, spices, dyes and other industries, modern countries also used as food condiments, known as "the Queen of condiments", "the kitchen treasure." Now saffron is also used for make-up and beauty, skin care and so on. China Agricultural Network Editor
