Cnidium General Information
Cnidium is a variety of Carrot unknown to most Americans; Cnidium monnieri is a leafy annual with flowers that grow in clusters. The herb has been a popular remedy in Asian folk medicine for millennia, being first described about 2,000 years ago in the Chinese herbal classic Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing. The seeds, which are also referred as she chuang zi or she chuang dze, are somewhat yellow in color and have a sweet smell. Cnidium is native to China, where it may be found growing on field edges, in ditches and waste places in most of the country. It also grows in Korea, Mongolia and Russia. Cnidium has been introduced to the United States (Oregon) and Europe.
For thousands of years, Chinese herbalists have prescribed Cnidium seeds to treat skin problems such as acne, eczema and ringworm, and for use as an aphrodisiac. Preliminary research shows some of the compounds in Cnidium have anti-histamine, anti-itch, anti-fungal, anti-cancer, astringent, carminative, sedative, and anti-bacterial properties.

Cnidium Uses & Scientific Evidence For
Today Cnidium seeds are most commonly used to treat itchy skin, rashes, acne, eczema and ringworm, typically in the genital area. Cnidium seeds can also be taken internally to treat vaginal discharges and to increase sexual potency. Cnidium is often combined with other herbs to help treat infertility and impotence. The Chinese still use the seeds as an aphrodisiac, and animal studies indicate it may improve bone strength.
Cnidium Monnieri naturally increases nitric oxide release, which powerfully increases the production of cGMP. Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate (cGMP) is the key in obtaining and sustaining a powerful erection. cGMP relaxes the muscles around the penis, which makes it possible for the cells in the penis to take in blood, thus allows you to experience a proper erection. It is not a know fact, but the woman’s clitoris contains the very same erectile tissue as the male penis. Without proper blood flow to the clitoris the woman’s sexual experience can and will be greatly diminished.
Research done by the School of Pharmacy, Shenyang Pharmaceutical University in 2004 found this: Cnidium Monnieri extracts might have potential activity against osteoporosis, and its chloroform fraction might contain active constituents stimulating osteoblasts.
The Department of Pharmacognosy, School of Pharmacy, Second Military Medical University, Shanghai, China in 2007 did some research on the chemicals in Cnidium and found this: There has been successful isolation of antiosteoporotic components, i.e., osthole, imperatorin and bergapten. Among them, osthole was determined as the major compound possessing antiosteoporotic activity.

Cnidium Safety & Interaction Information
The American Herbal Products Association gives Cnidium a class I rating, which means that it is safe when taken in the recommended doses; however, it should not be used if using peony root, croton seed or fritillaria.
Do not confuse Cnidium seeds with the essential oil derived from them. While the seeds may be taken internally, the essential oil should not be ingested except under the supervision of a doctor.
