Dried tangerine peel is not only a familiar ingredient in Chinese medicine but also brings many health benefits, especially for the liver and sleep.
The liver is the organ responsible for detoxification, protein synthesis and fat metabolism. However, modern lifestyle, often stressed, and irregular eating causes the liver to overwork.
Dried tangerine peel contains volatile oil with strong antioxidant properties, helping to neutralize free radicals - the cause of cell damage and aging. As a result, tangerine peel helps reduce liver cell damage, helping to protect the liver from inflammation and degeneration. It is beneficial in supporting the treatment of chronic hepatitis, fatty liver and other metabolic disorders.
Dried tangerine peel also aids digestion by stimulating bowel movements, reducing bloating, and indigestion. When the digestive system is functioning well, the liver is also "reduced", thereby improving overall health.
Notably, dried tangerine peels also help improve sleep quality. The liver regulates blood pressure and emotions. When the liver is stagnant, patients are prone to insomnia, anxiety, and restlessness. Dried tangerine peel has the effect of soothing the liver, regulating blood gas, helping to relax the spirit and support deeper, more natural sleep.
