Angelica Herb - Dong Quai

Angelica is a common ingredient in herbal teas, though finding a pure Angelica Herbal Tea is not an easy thing to do. You pretty much have to brew your own from the angelica herb. Angelica is also known as Dong Quai in Chinese medicine and has been used in traditional Chinese remedies for female related problems for 1000’s of years. Often blended with other Chinese and western herbs, you may be drinking angelica tea and not even know it! The angelica that we are talking of in this article is Chinese Angelica or Angelica sinensis, there are other types and varieties, you can read more about them here at our Angelica Sinensis article.

Many of the PMS Teas, Menopause Tea, and Pregnancy Tea recipes call for angelica as one of the main ingredients. It has some qualities that make it useful in treating PMS and menopause specific problems. Here are a few of the qualities of Angelica.

You can buy angelica sinensis as a dried herb online or in most health food stores. It may be offered for sale under the name Dong Quai, so if you can’t find Angelica sinensis, look for Dong Quai.
