The discovery was once associated with the glory of a dynasty
According to legend, in 1190 AD, Temujin fought with Jamuka and was besieged in Shashan. The Jamuhe tribe divided the captives into 70 pots and boiled them to death. So cruel, it angered the gods. I saw a divine horse sent by the gods screaming up to the sky, shooting blood at the roots of the tree, and digging out plant roots like the genitals of the divine horse with its hooves. This is cistanche. After the Temujin tribe ate it, their divine power emerged, defeated the opponent, laid the foundation for the unification of Mongolia, and created the glory of conquering the Eurasian continent.

Cistanche has given literati and poets a lot of talks. In the Northern Song Dynasty, one day Su Shi and other literati and poets were drinking at the home of the famous historian Liu Gong's father. When Su left, Liu Yi wanted to keep Su, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, I came early and took it easy." Su Shi replied: "This matter must be returned." The previous sentence contains three fruits apricot, jujube, plum, and cistanche. In the latter sentence, there is nai (a kind of apple), cane, persimmon, and angelica. Both of them used fruit and traditional Chinese medicine as punchlines, which won praise from the guests present.
Historically, countries in the Western Regions, which are rich in natural resources, presented rare products to the imperial court every year, among which Cistanche was always loved by the emperor. There has also been a popular saying among the people: "It is better to have a basket of cistanche than a bed full of gold and jade". In modern times, every spring, a group of gold diggers will go to the desert in the northwest. They dug and dug there, just to find the legendary Cistanche.
Study the precious and famous medicines that cross borders between China and the West
In my country, Cistanche has been used as medicine for more than 1800 years. "Shen Nong's Materia Medica": Treat men without yang, and women without yin. "Compendium of Materia Medica" records: This thing is tonic but not strong, so it has the name of cistanche. It is mild and moisturizing, tonic but not dry, slippery but not diarrhea, and often nourishing but not harsh. In more than 20 classics of traditional Chinese medicine, Cistanche is listed as a precious Chinese herbal medicine. It is also recorded in the "Chinese Pharmacopoeia" in 2005.
As a traditional Chinese herbal medicine, Cistanche has a certain effect of nourishing qi and blood. Now, most of the prescriptions for invigorating the kidney and strengthening yang contain the ingredients of Cistanche. In the Zengli traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions of the past dynasties, the occurrence rate of Cistanche is the first, and it is the second in the anti-aging prescriptions. It is the most tasteful among the more than 60 kinds of tonic medicinal materials found in China. Nowadays, cistanche is used clinically to treat impotence due to kidney deficiency, male infertility, habitual constipation, etc., and medicines containing cistanche are also used to treat senile polyuria, diabetes, deafness, and delay aging.

In modern times, the reputation of Cistanche has already crossed the borders of China. Even in places such as Europe and the United States, Cistanche is also a precious medicinal material blindly. Studies have shown that in terms of modern health care, Cistanche has a certain degree of anti-aging effects, and has the functions of regulating endocrine, promoting metabolism, and strengthening. In addition, it also affects the immune system.
Planting Alpine snow water nourishes orchid quality
Today, in the WECISTANCHE farm, there are Populus euphratica forests and red willows, the host of Cistanche, all over it, and the barren sand has been replaced by greenery. Just like other Wecistanche farms in the world, this place contains the essence of modern agriculture, and it also means high standards that must be followed all the time once you enter the family.
Wild Cistanche tubulosa was first cultivated on farms. Here, local farmers collect 10-20 grams of pure and high-quality Cistanche tuberosa seeds from each flower stem every year.
On the farm, the high-quality organic fertilizer that Cistanche needs is the red willow leaves that fall to the ground every winter and are formed after long-term accumulation and burial. Weeds are controlled by manual weeding. For the troubled insects, there is no pesticide here. Instead, it is controlled by manually clearing the tamarisk forest area to eliminate insect sources, insect traps to kill insects, and protecting natural enemies such as ladybugs and birds.

Due to the unique conditions, the growth of Cistanche can rely on the alpine snow water in the nearby Kunlun Mountains. Because it is rich in minerals, trace organic matter, and other nutrients needed by the soil, Cistanche is also nourished.
Discover the Mystery of Cistanche
Regarding the mysteries of Cistanche, the research, and discovery of Wecistanche have been on the way. The latest research results focus on the improvement of memory by Cistanche. Through the patented extraction and separation process and advanced spray drying technology, wecistanche extracted the concentrated essence rich in echinacoside from Cistanche and carried out a detailed and in-depth mechanical study on the effect of Cistanche tuberose on improving brain ability rational research.
People's best memory appears around the age of 20. After the age of 30, the function of the brain begins to decline gradually, and memory gradually declines with age. Modern medicine believes that although the reasons for memory loss are complicated, they are at least related to three obvious brain changes. The first is the change of neurons, including apoptosis and damage. The second is that aging may inhibit the activity of neurotransmitters, such as acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is mainly related to the network of memory neurons; the third is the microcirculation structure of the brain. Changes with age, such as decreased blood supply to the brain. Wecistanche's research and experiments on the functional components of Cistanche tubulosa (echinacoside, phenylethanoid glycoside) have confirmed that they can reduce the apoptosis of brain neuron cells, promote the growth of neuron cells, and reduce the growth of brain neuron cells. A clear role for oxidative damage.
