Raphanus sativus (seed)
TCM seed that descends qi and resolves food stagnation.
Lai Fu Zi, the seed of Raphanus sativus, is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb primarily used to descend qi and resolve food stagnation. It is commonly employed for digestive complaints such as bloating, belching, and phlegm-associated cough. Key active compounds include sinapine, glucosinolates, and volatile oils that contribute to its carminative and expectorant effects.
The seeds contain glucosinolates that are hydrolyzed by myrosinase into isothiocyanates, which stimulate digestive secretions and enhance gut motility, thereby alleviating food stagnation. Sinapine and other alkaloids may exert mild cholinergic effects, promoting peristalsis and reducing bloating. Additionally, volatile oils provide expectorant action by thinning mucus and facilitating its expulsion from the respiratory tract. These combined actions support the traditional use of Lai Fu Zi as a qi-descending herb.
