The difference between bitter hemp and curly hemp

1. The difference between leaves

The leaves of the bitter vegetable are round-lanceolate. They appear green on the outside, gray-green on the back, and yellow-white on the stem. The edges of the leaves of the Curcuma longituba are thorny and sharp, the stems are relatively upright, reddish white, and latex will ooze out when the leaves are broken.

2. Difference in efficacy

Kumaisha can clear away heat and detoxify, cool blood, remove blood stasis and relieve pain. It has a very good effect on abdominal pain caused by childbirth, menstrual pain, or chest and abdominal discomfort; and Qumacai can treat carbuncles, sores, and is mainly used to treat bacillary dysentery, enteritis, lung abscess, and acute appendicitis. It is especially effective for acne-prone teenagers.
