Gang Cao, also known as "Rhizoma Dioscoreae" or "Dioscorea," is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb derived from the rhizome (part of the stem that grows underground) of certain species of the Dioscorea plant. It is commonly used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for its various therapeutic properties. Gang Cao is primarily recognized for its ability to tonify the spleen and qi (vital energy), improve digestion, and enhance overall bodily strength.
