桂圆的养生保健功效.doc

龙眼肉,又称桂圆肉、元肉,主产于我国南方广东、福建、台湾、广西等地。于初秋果实成熟时采收,烘干或晒干,去核取肉备用。由于其果实正成熟于阴历八月“桂月”之时,又因其果实极圆,故有“桂圆”之称;而状似龙眼,又得“龙眼”之名;还因其食用时弃壳去核而食其肉(又称假种皮)故名“龙眼肉”。
龙眼肉性味甘、温,入心、脾经,有补益心脾,养血安神之功,主要用于心脾虚损,气血不足所致的失眠、健忘、惊悸、怔忡、眩晕等。本品滋补之中既不滋腻,又不壅气,为滋补良药。《本经》言其“主安志、厌食,久服强魂魄,聪明”。《本草纲目》言其“开胃益脾,补虚长智”。《滇南本草》言其“益血安神,长智敛汗,开胃益脾”。《得配本草》言其“益脾胃,葆心血,润五脏,治怔忡”。《日用本草》言其“开胃益脾,补灵长智”。《泉州本草》言其“壮阳益气,补脾胃,治妇人产后浮肿,气虚水肿,脾虚泻泄”。
龙眼水浸剂外用尚有消炎、止血作用。龙眼肉有良好的健脾补血效果,为中医养心益智要药,适用于贫血、神经衰弱、失眠健忘、年老体衰、病后产后气血不足、记忆力下降等。本品性味甘温,服食时用量不宜过大,以免中满气壅;脾胃虚弱,恶寒发热,舌苔厚腻,痰阻中焦,水饮内停者,不宜服食。现介绍几则粥疗方,供选用。
