Description
Peony Root is native to China, chiefly produced in the Zhejiang, Anhui, and Sichuan provinces. The root is harvested in late summer or early fall and then washed clean. After removal of the lateral roots and skin, it is sometimes boiled for a short period and then dried. Peony is named after Paeon, the Greek physician to the gods. Peony Root was used at one time to keep away evil spirits and to prevent nightmares.
Since the days of Hippocrates (470-377 B.C.), Peony Root has been recommended as a remedy for epilepsy. The seeds of this plant were even worn as necklaces to ward off the disease. Only Paeonia suffruticosa (Tree Peony) is used as an antiseptic and hepato-tonic, as well as used for female infertility. Peony clears blood congestion following traumatic injury. Peony Root is used for many female complaints. In particular, it is considered to be highly effective in relieving menstrual cramps. It reduces muscle tension, yet at the same time stimulates uterine muscles. Peony also calms the liver and nourishes the blood, helping to improve blood flow to the uterus. Women who use Peony for an extended period of time find that their skin becomes finer, smoother, softer and cleaner. An old saying in China is that women who consume Peony Root will become as beautiful as the Peony flower. Men also use Peony Root as well, since it has an anti-aging effect without effecting hormones.
The primary chemical constituents of Peony Root include monoterpene glycosides (paeoniflorin, albiflorin), asparagin, benzoic acid, triterpenoids, and sitosterol. When combined with Licorice Root, Peony's anti-spasmodic, analgesic qualities are magnified. The common name Peony includes the species Paeonia lactiflora, Paeonia albiflora, and Paeonia officinalis which are often used interchangeably with Paeonia suffruticosa.
