What are the effects of drinking water soaked with Astragalus and Ophiopogon?

1. Improve heart function

Astragalus has the effect of strengthening the contraction of a normal human heart. Its cardiotonic effect is more significant on a heart that has failed due to poisoning or fatigue. It mainly manifests itself in increasing the amplitude of cardiac contraction and the amount of blood discharged. Relevant experiments have shown that 100% Astragalus injection can accelerate and strengthen the contraction of the isolated heart. Astragalus can also effectively improve the left ventricular function of patients with viral myocarditis and has a certain anti-arrhythmic effect, which may be due to prolonging the effective refractory period.

2. Regulate blood sugar

Relevant experiments have shown that astragalus polysaccharides contained in astragalus have a bidirectional effect on regulating blood sugar. They can significantly reduce the blood sugar level of mice after glucose load, and can significantly counteract the increase in blood sugar level of mice caused by adrenaline, but have no obvious effect on insulin hypoglycemia. It can be seen from this that drinking water soaked with Astragalus regularly can effectively lower blood sugar.
