Angelica sinensis root extracts, known as danggui in TCM, have traditionally been used to treat a variety of blood-related ailments including menstrual cramps, blood deficiencies, uterine disorders, as well as ischemias of both the heart and brain (Li et al., 2008; Zhou et al., 2007). It should therefore come as no surprise that Danggui affects blood coagulation when administered with warfarin. In fact, it was shown in rabbits that danggui significantly increases prothrombin time of rabbits that were also using warfarin (Lo et al., 1995). Second, recent studies are proving its benefits in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy (such as doxorubicin and bleomycin) and radiation treatments for its ability to counteract oxidative damage caused by both treatment methods (Zhou et al., 2007; Guang et al., 2006).
Angelica sinensis, contains antioxidants, inhibits the growth of cancer cells in vitro and stimulates immune function in experimental animals. It has been used to treat amenorrhea and menopausal hot flushes, and to reduce pulmonary hypertension in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, etc.
