Fertility is a natural process to insure the survival of human species. Through natural selection, we produce many offspring when the reproductive system works at its peak in the suitable environment with plenty foods around. On the other hand, the reductive system may completely shut down, or work at its minimum state, and we produce fewer offspring when the environment is hostile, including fewer foods around, war, epidemic, etc. But regardless, most women are capable to conceive sometimes before menopause.
I. Definition
Schisandra chinensis is also known as wu wei zi in traditional Chinese medicine, and is native to Northern China and Russian. It has been used in traditional Chinese medicine in treating all kinds of liver diseases
II. How schizandra chinensis effects fertility
1. Hepatoprotective
Since liver plays a vital role in transforming and clearing chemicals. Weakened liver reduces the liver function in secreting bile in regulating the normal function of spleen in production of insulin, leading to infertility.
2. Lignans
Lignans are considered to be phytoestrogens which help to occupy the estrogen receptor sites in the body, resulting in lessening the risk of over-production of bad estrogen during menstrual cycle which causes hormone imbalance and disrupts the natural process of conception.
3. Adaptogen
Since schizandra chinensis is an adaptogen, it helps to increase the body’s resistance to stress, trauma, anxiety and fatigue and promotes over health resulting in normalizing the reproductive system function in the process of natural fertility.
4. Immune system
It is also contains antioxidant properties which help our immune system in fighting against any reproductive infection and inflammation as well as protecting immune abnormal function in attacking our own body tissues.
5. Aphrodisiac property
It also helps helps to increase kidney function in conserving the kidney fluid until the appropriate time of release, thus consuming schizandrae will increase the sperm quality and sperm count as well as sexual desire in men and women alike.
