Pharmacological Effects:
Hu Lu Ba (Trigonella Foenum-Graecum) is well-known for its ability to tonify the kidneys, strengthen yang, relieve pain, and treat coughs. It is commonly used to treat conditions caused by kidney yang deficiency, such as impotence, lower back pain, fatigue, and weakness. Hu Lu Ba helps warm and tonify kidney yang, improving strength and sexual function, while also addressing symptoms caused by kidney deficiency.
Additionally, Hu Lu Ba has a warming and pain-relieving effect, and is often used to relieve stomach coldness, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. It works by warming the middle Jiao, expelling cold, and alleviating discomfort due to spleen and stomach weakness caused by cold and dampness.
Modern research shows that Hu Lu Ba contains various bioactive compounds, such as saponins, flavonoids, and amino acids, which have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, blood sugar-lowering, and cholesterol-lowering effects. It not only helps to tonify kidney yang and relieve pain but also aids in regulating blood sugar and cholesterol, helping prevent conditions like diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.
