Yun Gui

　　"Yun Gui" refers to the premium angelica produced in Yunnan, grown in mountainous areas above 2,300 meters in places such as Lijiang and Jianchuan. It is large in size, white in color, and has a strong fragrance, making it one of Yunnan’s most exported medicinal herbs. "Yun Gui" has the effects of promoting blood circulation, enriching blood, regulating menstruation, relieving pain, and moistening the intestines to relieve constipation. It is also commonly used as an ingredient in various soups. Angelica is ranked among the eight famous medicinal herbs — ginseng, poria, atractylodes, licorice, chuanxiong, angelica, rehmannia, and peony — and is one of the most commonly used herbs in traditional Chinese medicine.
