application
BETA-asarone comes from Acorus calamus and Gepu, which can be used to relieve asthma, resolve phlegm and relieve cough.
biological activity
Beta-asarone is the main component of Acorus calamus. It can penetrate the blood-brain barrier and has the effects of immunosuppression, central nervous system inhibition, sedation, and cooling. Beta-asarone can prevent Parkinson's disease.
