Reynoutria multiflora
A TCM herb whose name means black hair; used for premature graying, male infertility, and longevity; prepared form (Zhì Hé Shǒu Wū) is safer than raw; stilbene glycosides are antioxidant.
He Shou Wu (Reynoutria multiflora) is a traditional Chinese herb renowned for its hair-darkening and anti-aging properties, commonly used to support hair health, male fertility, and longevity. Its key active compounds include stilbene glycosides, resveratrol, and emodin, which contribute to antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and hormonal modulating effects. The prepared form (Zhi He Shou Wu) is essential to mitigate hepatotoxicity risks associated with the raw herb.
Stilbene glycosides, particularly 2,3,5,4'-tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside, act as potent antioxidants by upregulating sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and reducing oxidative stress, which may protect against cellular aging. Emodin and physcion exert mild laxative and anti-inflammatory effects via inhibition of NF-κB and COX-2 pathways. The herb may also modulate androgen receptor signaling and support testosterone production, though clinical evidence remains preliminary.
