Shen Nung (2838-2698) |
The leaves and/ or stems of the Ma Huang plant were dried prepared in such a way that it was served as a drink, often as a bitter tasting tea. Nung believed Ma Huang worked by reversing the flow of Qi.
Leaves of the plant were crushed and served in a bitter tasting yellow tea.
Western medicine reached China early in the 17th century. But, another 300 years would go by before ephedrine was discovered by the modern world. (2).
We might fairly assume that the Chinese had the best asthma remedy in the ancient world. It was taken by mouth and offered quick breathing relief.
So, while Ancient Chinese asthmatics obtained quick asthma relief by using ephedra, the rest of the world (except for maybe Japan and Korea) would have to wait.
