What are the producing areas of golden cicadas?

The golden cicada is a kind of creature with the morphological characteristics of animals and plants, the root is the larva of the cicada, and the flower grows from the head of a single cicada or 2-3 cicadas, so what is the origin of the golden cicada?

I. the producing area of golden cicada

Golden cicada is mainly produced in the south of the Yangtze River in China, Sichuan, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian and other provinces and cities, Europe and the United States, Japan and other countries also have a small amount of distribution.

Second, the function of golden cicada.

1. Anti-tumor effect: anti-tumor effect, cicada anti-tumor, preventing cancer cell spread and metastasis are achieved by improving patients' immunity. Lu Di, director of "China Cancer treatment and Protection Network" and tumor experts at home and abroad believe that the root cause of cancer is the decline of patients' immunity. The immune system is the natural barrier of the human body, which can produce immune protection against cancer and other immune protection to maintain the physiological balance and stability of the body. For patients receiving radiotherapy and chemotherapy, it can improve the tolerance to the toxicity of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, eliminate the unique sharp pain of cancer, reduce or eliminate the side effects such as leukopenia, hair loss, loss of appetite and vomiting caused by radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and improve cachexia. Improve the quality of life, prolong life. Cicada polysaccharide (galactomannan) also has anti-tumor effect.

2. Central nervous system regulation: intraperitoneal injection of natural cicada flower or artificial culture dilute alcohol extract in mice with central nervous system can significantly reduce their autonomous activity and prolong the sleep time caused by pentobarbital sodium and chloral hydrate. Increase the hypnotic rate of mice with subthreshold hypnotic dose of pentobarbital sodium, and prolong the latent time of convulsion in mice delivered by Shening and pentylenetetrazol. It was proved by chemical stimulation method and hot plate method that both of them had obvious analgesic effect. Intraperitoneal injection of normal and yeast-induced febrile rats had obvious cooling effect. Other data further prove that cicada flower and its artificial culture have obvious analgesic, sedative and antipyretic effects.

3. Toxicity and side effects: acute toxicity test showed that the ethanol extract of natural cicada was given to mice by intragastric administration of 60g/kg. None of the 20 mice died after 72 hours. The activity of the animals only decreased after administration, and all returned to normal after 24 hours. The LD50 of intraperitoneal injection was 12.5 ±2.1g/kg. The toxic reactions were writhing, decreased activity, dyspnea and even death. The subacute toxicity test showed that the rats in the three groups were intragastrically administered with 1g / kg / kg respectively for 28 days. The results showed that there were no abnormal changes in blood routine, liver, renal function and electrocardiogram, and no obvious abnormal changes in heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney and other important organs.

Golden cicada flower can soak water, cook soup, cook porridge, is a very common medicine, suitable for middle-aged and elderly to eat and nourish.
