In addition, when some people are confinement, they will use Dafengcao to prevent postpartum wind.

The function of warding off evil spirits and preventing sore muscles and bones is a holy product during the postpartum period in the era of scarcity of materials in the past.

Collect the leaves and stems of the mature but unblooming Galium weed, put them in a pot and bring to a boil, then let cool. The boiled concoction is light green with a special aroma, which smells comfortable and relaxing. After taking a bath, I often feel that the limbs are warm and the whole body is comfortable, which has the effect of dispelling rheumatism and preventing colds.
