Medicinal characteristics

Compendium of Materia Medica says: "Exotic insects went abroad and were introduced into China at the end of the Ming Dynasty. ..... This thing is shaped like a rice belt, like a newborn ant, like a silkworm, and it turns black after a long time, like a watercress, and it is male and female. Nowadays, people feed it with bamboo tubes, and it is extremely cold. It must be hidden in your arms in cold weather and put in the cloakroom at night. When it comes to Buddhism, some people feed poria cocos and safflower, and those who pay for the end of Guangxi are red and shiny, especially for medicine. " There must be a long-lived old man who saw this bug haunt for hundreds of miles.

Jiulong has the effects of warming middle warmer, regulating qi, promoting blood circulation and relieving pain, expelling wind and removing dampness. It is mainly used for treating stomachache, abdominal distension, vomiting, diarrhea, traumatic injury, hemiplegia, limb paralysis, strain cough, irregular menstruation, leucorrhea with red and white discharge, etc. In addition, studies show that Nine Dragons contains a large number of unsaturated fatty acids, palmitic acid, linoleic acid and oleic acid, among which unsaturated fatty acids are widely used in clinic, especially in skin care and beauty, hyperlipidemia and malignant tumors, which has attracted great attention, but there is no report on related pharmacological effects.

The most suitable temperature for modern culture of Nine Dragons is 20-35 degrees. If it is cold in winter, you can put it in a foam box to keep pores. It is best to have heating equipment, such as light bulbs, heating, air conditioning, etc.

According to the Dictionary of Traditional Chinese Medicine (version 1977), it is cultivated with peanuts, lotus seeds, longan, red dates, Eucommia ulmoides, safflower, betel nut and walnut kernel. Used for invigorating qi and nourishing blood. It has the effects of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, warming middle warmer and regulating qi, and can also be used to treat nameless swelling and toxin. When eaten together with safflower, jujube and walnut, it can enhance the medicinal properties of ectoparasites, promote the full absorption and utilization of human body, adjust the balance of yin and yang in hematopoietic organs, and achieve the effects of tonifying kidney and replenishing essence, invigorating spleen and nourishing blood, cooling serum, clearing away heat and toxic materials, promoting qi and blood circulation, and removing blood stasis. The worm can be used to treat myelodysplastic anemia, secondary anemia, thrombocytopenia, platelet dysfunction diseases, coagulation factor deficiency, etc. The curative effect is remarkable, the effective rate is 100%, and the cure rate is over 85%. Treatment of leukemia also has a certain effect, which can improve the remission rate of leukemia and prolong the survival period. By-products of exotic insects, such as insect dung, insect skin and other impurities or metabolites, have the functions of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, reducing swelling and relieving pain; It has obvious effect on treating subcutaneous congestion and swelling caused by contusion and sprain. In recent years, studies have shown that foreign worms also have a good anti-aging effect.

In the treatment of tumor, the use of chemotherapy drugs and exotic worms can improve the immune function of the body, reduce the toxic and side effects of chemotherapy drugs, and also have a certain synergistic effect. Insects can reduce the toxic and side effects of cyclophosphamide, have a significant protective effect on immune organ atrophy, leukopenia and weight loss caused by cyclophosphamide, and enhance the inhibitory effect on tumors.

The whole growth and reproduction process includes four stages: egg stage (3-4 days), larval stage (25-30 days), pupal stage (4-7 days) and adult stage (50-60 days), and it belongs to completely metamorphosed insects. The suitable temperature is 20-35℃. When the temperature is lower than 10 in winter, it will enter the hibernation period and prolong the growth cycle, which is unfavorable to the yield. The whole life cycle of this insect is about 100- 130 days.

The daily feeding mainly includes fresh orange peel, walnut, carrot, jujube and peanut. This insect is very fertile, and each female adult can lay about 180-380 eggs in her life.

Medicinal range

Indications: cough due to strain, vomiting blood, paralysis due to apoplexy, traumatic injury, stomachache, nausea, choking diaphragm, anti-cancer and anti-aging.

pharmacological action

edit

The worm may contain fat-soluble components that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, which can significantly prolong the coagulation time. Worms contain a lot of unsaturated fatty acids palmitic acid, linoleic acid and oleic acid. Unsaturated fatty acids are widely used in clinic, especially in skin care and beauty, hyperlipidemia, malignant tumor and so on. Linoleic acid is an essential fatty acid for human body and a necessary prerequisite for the synthesis of prostaglandin, which can be converted into prostaglandin. Prostaglandin is a hormone-like substance, and a very small amount of prostaglandin can produce obvious physiological activity, regulate human blood pressure and promote metabolism.

It was recorded in China's ancient books and later introduced to Japan. It was widely spread and enjoyed by the Japanese royal family and nobles, and was known as "longevity worm" and "longevity health worm". It was introduced to Germany after World War II. At the end of 2003, this insect and its feed formula were introduced to China from the Japanese royal family.

This insect is named because it is rich in anti-cancer substances-antibacterial peptides, lectins and immune proteins. Most of more than ten kinds of precious Chinese herbal medicines have anti-cancer and anti-cancer effects.

The whole growth and reproduction process of Nine Dragons can be divided into four stages: egg stage (3-4 days), larval stage (25-30 days), pupal stage (4-7 days) and adult stage (50-60 days), and it belongs to a completely metamorphosed insect. The whole life cycle of this insect is about 100- 130 days. In order to make them reproduce at this rate all year round, he humidified and heated the farm to keep the temperature around 30 degrees Celsius.

Nowadays, this kind of dragon worm is known by more and more people. The government and medical departments have also conducted relevant research on Nine Dragons, and some pharmaceutical companies have also started to order Nine Dragons to develop their health products. The prospect of Nine Dragons is very promising. And decided to expand the scale of farming.

However, the market of Nine Dragons is still chaotic for the first batch of farmers. In 2009, the price of Nine Dragons was 1 yuan, and now the retail price of Nine Dragons is 20 cents. Among them, the main reason why the price gap is so large is the proliferation of fake Nine Dragons, which has greatly affected the original market. Because nine dragons are all fed with precious Chinese herbal medicines, if the price is very low, most of them are fake insects.

This bug has a preference for feed and likes to eat sweets. Jujube is its favorite food, followed by fresh orange peel (which can greatly replenish the water of Kowloon worms and is not afraid of being dried to death), and can also be fed with Ganoderma lucidum tablets, ginseng, Eucommia ulmoides, safflower, lotus seeds, walnuts and medlar. The feed fed by the breeder, except red dates and fresh orange peels, can be fed in small quantities. But it is worth watching the whole process of alien insects from eggs to larvae to pupae, finally to adults, and then to mating and spawning. You don't need a wooden pallet or a plastic box to raise a small number of exotic insects to enjoy. Clean glass bottles can be used, and the bottle cap can be tied with gauze or plastic yarn. Ventilation is not a problem. Glass bottles are transparent and easy to observe and appreciate.

Feeding this little thing, it is best to use a small transparent glass bottle, which is stuffed with cotton and fed with red dates, coix seed, peanuts and other foods. Exotic insects are afraid of cold, so they must keep warm. Hold it in your arms during the day and put it on the bed at night, as careless as your ancestors. Therefore, anyone who has fed foreign worms knows that this is not as smooth as feeding silkworm eggs. Most of them were fed to death one by one in a few days. When exotic insects die, they are naturally discarded as waste.

Living habits: Adults like to eat Ganoderma lucidum, dried yam slices, sugary red dates, orange peel or grapefruit peel mixed with water and red lotus seeds. Larvae and adults like to eat red lotus seeds and peel oranges with water. If you look closely, there will be some small larvae on each red lotus seed and orange peel.

One of the only manuscripts handed down by Ren Xigeng, the last imperial doctor in the Qing Dynasty, is The Story of Kowloon, which records the magical medicine named "Blind Kowloon" and Ren Xigeng's research experience on it. That's great.

According to the records in the book, the dragon worm was blindly introduced into China from Nanyang, and it had no curative effect. However, if mixed with other drugs, it will double the efficacy of other drugs, but there are also some compatibility taboos. The usage and taboos of Kowloon are described in detail in the Record of Kowloon, and there are many prescriptions that Ren Xigeng thinks are most suitable for adding Kowloon.
