Note: the xue lian roots sold in the markets of Taiwan are not Tian Shan

xue lian (Saussurea involucrate) but the roots of Smallanthus sonchifolius

(Poepp. & Endl.) H. Robinson var. Polymnia sonchifolia Poepp. & Endl.,

which are called yacon in South America.

註﹕在台灣 市場上可買到的,以塊根作為食用的所謂雪蓮

是農民從國外引進的,原產南美洲安地斯山脈的植物,

當地人稱之為Yacon,並非中國新疆天山與崑崙山所產的雪蓮花。

根據台中科學博物館嚴新富博士的說法,最好稱作"菊薯"或"雪蓮薯"。

菊薯的學名是Smallanthus sonchifolius (Poepp. & Endl.) H. Robinson
異學名是Polymnia sonchifolia Poepp. & Endl.

 

The following to be translated:

清代趙學敏所著《本草綱目拾遺》記載“雪蓮花產伊犁西北......大寒之地積雪,春夏不散,雪中有草,類荷花,獨莖,亭亭雪間可愛,性熱能補陰益陽,治一切寒癥”。

《新疆中草藥》稱:雪蓮性溫,微苦,功能祛風勝濕,對醫治風濕性疾病具有特殊效果。經臨床藥學研究實踐證明,雪蓮全草入藥,具有通經活血,暖宮散淤,散寒除濕,強筋助陽,止血,消腫之功能。臨床主要用於治療急慢性風濕性關節炎引起的疼痛,肺寒咳嗽,宮寒腹痛,閉經,胎衣不下,陽痿和麻疹不透等癥,使用安全,無毒副作用。
