Which Chinese medicines have the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin?

1. Wolfberry. "Shennong's Herbal Classic" states that wolfberry "strengthens muscles and bones, makes the body light and prevents aging, and is resistant to cold and heat if taken for a long time." "Bencao Huiyan" praises it as "it can replenish qi, supplement blood, generate yang and grow yin." Lycium barbarum has an "adaptogenic" effect similar to ginseng, and can resist arteriosclerosis, lower blood sugar, promote liver cell regeneration, etc. Taking it can strengthen the body and delay aging.

2. Royal jelly. Royal jelly is a treasure among bee products. It is rich in nutrients that can promote protein synthesis, promote cell growth, enhance the body's metabolism, and enhance tissue regeneration ability. At the same time, because it is rich in superoxide dismutase and vitamins C and E, it is a rare anti-aging medicine.

3. Polygonum multiflorum. The Song Dynasty's "Kaibao Materia Medica" calls it "long-term use can strengthen muscles and bones, improve essence and marrow, and prolong life." Modern research has found that Polygonum multiflorum can promote the growth of nerve cells and has an auxiliary therapeutic effect on neurasthenia and other nervous system diseases. It can also regulate serum cholesterol, lower blood sugar, and enhance the ability of liver cells to convert and metabolize cholesterol. Polygonum multiflorum also has good antioxidant effects.

4. Acanthopanax senticosus. "Compendium of Materia Medica" says that "long-term use can make the body light and resist aging" and "I would rather have a handful of angelica than a cart full of gold and jade." Modern research has found that Eleutherococcus senticosus has anti-aging, anti-fatigue (its anti-fatigue effect is stronger than ginsenosides), and strengthening effects. It can also regulate the functions of the nervous system, endocrine system, and cardiovascular system, and has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory and certain anti-cancer effects.
