Dandelion, also known as ku po po ding, is a specialty vegetable that is rich in nutrients and high in medicinal value.
Ku po po ding
Ku po po ding, known academically as dandelion (Taraxacum), also called yellow-flower seedling, yellow-flower earth nail, yellow-flower lang, wood yam, thin pulp, bu bu ding, milk juice or bitter alfalfa, etc. It is a perennial herbaceous plant, with leaves obovate-lanceolate, oblanceolate or oblong-lanceolate, and 1 to several flower scapes, equal to or slightly longer than the leaves. The achene is obovate-lanceolate, dark brown. The flowering period is April to September, and the fruiting period is May to October.
It is widely distributed in many places in North China, Central China, East China, Northeast China and other regions. In spring, summer and autumn, dandelions grow in fields, roadsides, hillsides, and in front of and behind houses; the number of units or individuals cultivating dandelions artificially is also increasing day by day. The development and utilization of dandelion has broad prospects.
Morphological characteristics
The dandelion root is spindle-shaped or conical, growing vertically, penetrating relatively deep into the soil, single or branched. The aboveground stem is not obvious, 10-25cm high, and the whole plant is covered with sparse white soft hairs and contains white milky juice. The basal leaves spread out in a rosette shape, and the leaf blades are obovate-lanceolate or linear-lanceolate, about 15cm long and about 5cm wide, with large pinnate lobes or pinnate lobes; the segments are triangular, entire or with several teeth, the apex slightly obtuse or pointed, and the base gradually narrows into a petiole, hairless or with cobweb-like fine soft hairs.

Biological characteristics
Dandelion is a short-day plant, and high temperature and short-day conditions are favorable for bolting and flowering; it is relatively shade-tolerant, but good light conditions are favorable for stem and leaf growth. It has strong adaptability and is not selective about soil, but grows better in sunny, fertile, moist sandy loam; it can germinate when the early spring soil temperature is 1-2°C, the seeds germinate fastest when the soil temperature is 15-20°C, but germinate more slowly when the temperature is above 25-30°C, and the optimum temperature for leaf growth is 15-22°C.
Distribution range
Many countries in the world, such as the United States, France, Japan, Russia, etc., all have wild or cultivated dandelions. The distribution of dandelion in China is even more widespread. In many places in North China, Central China, East China, Northeast China and other regions, in spring, summer and autumn, dandelions grow in fields, roadsides, hillsides, and in front of and behind houses; the number of units or individuals cultivating dandelions artificially is also increasing day by day. The development and utilization of dandelion has broad prospects.
Main value
Medicinal value
Dandelion can treat diseases and cure illnesses, as recorded in ancient books long ago. For example, Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" says: "For women's breast abscess and swelling, boil in water, drink the decoction and apply it externally, and it will disappear immediately. It resolves food poisoning, disperses stagnant qi, transforms heat toxin, reduces malignant swelling, scrofula, and treats swelling... It blackens the beard and hair and strengthens the tendons and bones. White juice: applied to malignant thorns and fox-urine thorn sores, it heals immediately." Modern medicine has also confirmed through research that dandelion has very high medicinal value. The various triterpene alcohols contained in its root are taraxasterol, taraxerol, taraxacin, as well as caffeic acid, inulin, and pectin; the whole plant contains inositol, asparagine, bitter substances, saponins, resin, inulin, pectin, and choline; the flowers contain flavoxanthin, vitamin B2, etc. Dandelion has a certain bactericidal effect on resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus, hemolytic Streptococcus, and Diplococcus pneumoniae, Meningococcus, Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus, Salmonella typhi, Shigella, etc.
Efficacy and effects: clearing heat and detoxifying; reducing abscesses and dissipating nodules. Mainly for breast abscess; lung abscess; intestinal abscess; mumps; boils and sores; red and swollen eyes with pain; cold and fever; cough; sore throat; stomach fire; enteritis; dysentery; hepatitis; cholecystitis; urinary tract infection; snake and insect bites. Used for boils and toxic swellings, breast abscess, scrofula, red eyes, sore throat, lung abscess, intestinal abscess, damp-heat jaundice, and painful heat strangury.
Long-term and extensive facts prove that dandelion is a precious Chinese herbal medicine, sweet and bitter in flavor and cold in nature. Clearing heat and detoxifying can be used for heat toxin syndromes, and it is especially good at clearing liver heat, treating red and swollen eyes with pain due to liver heat, as well as various infectious and suppurative diseases. Reducing abscesses and dissipating nodules treats abscesses and sores caused by heat toxin accumulating in the muscles, with persistent high fever. It has good effects on breast abscess, can detoxify, dissipate nodules and promote lactation, and can be taken orally or applied externally, often used together with honeysuckle, etc. In addition, it can be combined with rhubarb and moutan bark to treat intestinal abscess.
Main indications: acute mastitis, parotitis, lymphadenitis, scrofula, boils and sores, acute conjunctivitis, pharyngitis, cold and fever, acute tonsillitis, rheumatoid arthritis, acute bronchitis, gastritis, hepatitis, pneumonia, cholecystitis, acute and chronic appendicitis, urinary system infections, osteomyelitis, vaginitis, pelvic inflammation, duodenal ulcer, acne, pimples, calculus disease, and dozens of other conditions including various cancers. Its proven prescriptions are widely circulated among the people, and many medical books and newspapers and magazines have also published them.
Contraindications for use
Most infection cases belong to heat syndromes, so using dandelion for treatment will not produce adverse reactions or worsen the condition. However, a small number of infection cases belong to yin-cold, and at this time the body will not show fever, and the course of the disease is also relatively long, and the patient's physical constitution is relatively poor. If a large dose of dandelion is used to treat the disease at this time, then not only will it fail to improve the disease, but the patient may even experience decreased appetite, worsening physical condition and fatigue, and even night sweats and pale complexion, and the body will become worse and worse. Therefore, in daily life, dandelion must be used with caution, and it absolutely must not be simply regarded as a universal antibacterial and anti-inflammatory medicinal material, otherwise the harm to the body is relatively great.
In addition, taking a large amount of dandelion can easily cause various gastrointestinal discomforts, such as nausea, the urge to vomit, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea, etc. This is mainly because after taking a large dose of dandelion, the renal tubules in the body become narrowed, and the liver cells and the epithelial cells of the renal tubules show mild turbidity and swelling, which leads to various diseases in the body.
[Can be used as veterinary medicine]
Dandelion is not only a good dietary vegetable and a good medicine for treating diseases for humans, but can also be used relatively widely in animal husbandry and veterinary medicine. It can be used as a precious feed additive and can also treat various diseases of various livestock. For example, boiling the whole dandelion plant in water and administering the decoction can treat upper respiratory tract infections in livestock; decocting dandelion in water and applying it hot to the affected area can treat mastitis in livestock; dandelion combined with Viola philippica and winter melon seeds can treat emphysema, fever and asthma in livestock; dandelion combined with Artemisia capillaris can treat painful urination, fever and abdominal distension in sheep; dandelion and Vaccaria seed ground into fine powder together, with yellow rice wine and brown sugar as guiding agents, can treat insufficient milk in female livestock; dandelion decoction mixed with white sugar can treat nosebleeds in cattle and horses; dandelion, apricot kernel and alum decocted in water and taken warm can treat laryngitis in cattle and horses; dandelion and yellow chrysanthemum mashed together and applied to the affected area can treat abscesses and sores in livestock, etc.
Dietary therapy value
Dandelion, whether wild or artificially cultivated, is a nutrient-rich specialty vegetable. The edible portion of the fresh tender whole dandelion plant is about 84%, and per 100g, the edible portion contains 4.8g protein, 1.1g fat, 5.0g carbohydrates, 2.1g crude fiber, 216.0mg calcium, 93.0mg phosphorus, 10.2mg iron, 7.35mg carotene, 0.03mg vitamin B1, 0.39mg vitamin B2, 47.0mg vitamin C, and 1.9g nicotinic acid. Dandelion is not only rich in nutrients, but also has very high medicinal value[3]. Therefore, it is not an ordinary specialty vegetable, but a precious dietary vegetable.
How to eat it? The "Compendium of Materia Medica" has a saying: "The tender seedlings of dandelion can be eaten, and eating them raw is especially good for treating infectious diseases." It can thus be seen that dandelion can be stir-fried and eaten, and can also be used as a cold dressed dish. Of course, it can also be combined with other dishes and seasonings and cooked into various dietary delicacies with excellent color, aroma and taste. For example, stir-fried shredded pork with dandelion, because dandelion has the functions of clearing heat, detoxifying, reducing swelling and dissipating nodules, and pork has the effects of nourishing yin and moistening dryness, and tonifying the middle and supplementing qi, the two combined into a dish not only tastes delicious, but can also provide various nutrients, and thus can be used as dietary therapy for colds, gastritis, cough, blood in the stool, and boils and sores, etc.; garlic dandelion can be used as dietary therapy for acute mastitis, lymphadenitis, acute conjunctivitis, cholecystitis, gastritis, hepatitis, boils and toxic swellings, scrofula and other conditions; dandelion and mung bean soup can be used as dietary therapy for various inflammations, urinary tract infections, constipation, etc. In addition, manufacturers can also use deep processing methods to make dandelion into dandelion coffee, dandelion beverages and various health foods for sale, which can not only achieve relatively good economic benefits, but also benefit people's health, and can also promote the development of the dandelion industry, truly achieving multiple benefits at once.

Ornamental value
Specialized works such as "Bai Hua Hui" and "Qun Mang Pu Quan Shi" all provide detailed introductions to the role of dandelion in greening and beautifying the environment. Although "Bai Hua Hui" also points out: "Dandelion does not have the delicate beauty of peony, the rich fragrance of rose, or the snow-white color of cherry blossom, but it is ordinary in appearance yet beautiful within, and has extremely strong vitality." The main manifestations of dandelion's inner beauty are: first, it is plain and unadorned, with extremely vigorous growth and quite spectacular appearance; second, it blooms twice, in spring and autumn, and the spring flowering period is extremely early; third, although the flowers are not large and not as gorgeous as peony, rose, or cherry blossom, their flower quantity is large and pure, with a unique style, and they are also quite loved by people; fourth, they have wide uses and can achieve multiple benefits at once, achieving twice the result with half the effort. The main manifestations of its extremely strong vitality are: first, once planted, it can be used for many years; second, after flowering it becomes fluff, flies with the wind, and grows as soon as it lands on wet ground; third, it is not selective about soil, and can grow vigorously even in thin and poor land; fourth, it is cold-resistant, heat-resistant, drought-resistant, waterlogging-resistant, and resistant to pests and diseases, with very few natural disasters; fifth, it can compete with various weeds and win. Therefore, dandelion can achieve satisfactory results whether planted as ground cover or cultivated as a bonsai.
Nutritional value
Ku po po ding, also called dandelion, many people have seen it in the wild. Its pollen contains vitamins and linoleic acid, while the branches and leaves contain choline, amino acids and trace elements. The main functions of ku po po ding are clearing heat and detoxifying, reducing swelling and promoting diuresis. It has broad-spectrum antibacterial effects and can also stimulate the body's immune function, achieving cholagogic and liver-protecting effects.
