It has been used for over 1000 years in ancient Chinese medicine. The dried root has been traditionally used to treat many ailments, including fever, inflammation, and pain. Because some of these medical benefits have also been suggested by modern research methods, using white peony tea might be quite beneficial.<\/span><\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=White_Peony_Tea\" target=\"_blank\"><video autoplay=\"autoplay\" loop=\"loop\" muted=\"muted\" playsinline=\"playsinline\" width=\"777\"><source src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ezgif.com-gif-to-mp4-2.mp4\" type=\"video\/mp4\" \/><\/video><\/a>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, we examine the benefits and potential side effects of white peony tea.

Finally, we\u2019ll provide some insight on potential risks and precautions you should take when using white peony tea for its <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/matcha-green-tea-with-turmeric-benefits-side-effects\/\">medicinal qualities<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_White_Peony_Tea\"><\/span><b>What Is White Peony Tea?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">White peony is the common name used for Paeonia Lactiflora Pall. This plant belongs to the genus Paeonia, which consists of over 20 different species of perennial flowering plants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">White peony is native to China, Mongolia, and Siberia but grown as an ornamental garden plant in many parts of the world. It has been used for more than 1000 years in traditional Chinese medicine to treat a wide range of health conditions, including fever, pain, and inflammation (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3108611\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The root bark is considered sweet and slightly bitter in flavor and can be consumed as tea or powder.

But some of the possible <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/lavender-chamomile-tea-benefits-side-effects\/\">health benefits<\/a> of drinking white peony tea regularly are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"May_Boost_Estrogen_Levels\"><\/span><b>May Boost Estrogen Levels<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">White peony contains compounds called <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.plos.org\/plosone\/article\/file?type=printable&amp;id=10.1371\/journal.pone.0222383\">phytoestrogens<\/a>, which are thought to have estrogen-like effects in the body<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Estrogen is a key regulator of menstrual cycles, sexual development, bone strength, and other aspects of women\u2019s health throughout their lifespan. Estrogen levels decrease with menopause, and medical treatments can be given to boost <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/oolong-tea-benefits-side-effects\/\">estrogen levels<\/a> in women who don\u2019t produce enough of this hormone naturally (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hopkinsmedicine.org\/health\/conditions-and-diseases\/estrogens-effects-on-the-female-body\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">White peony supplements may help offset some symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes and anxiety. It does this by preventing the depletion of estrogen levels in the body\u2019s tissues. Paeoniflorin, the main compound in white peony, has been found to increase the activity of aromatase, an enzyme that turns testosterone into estrogen.

For example, one study found that treatment with a special saponin extract from a different plant reduced symptoms of psoriasis (<a href=\"https:\/\/jamanetwork.com\/journals\/jamadermatology\/article-abstract\/520758\">15<\/a>). Saponins are also thought to be responsible for the anti-inflammatory effects of white peony.

This is due to some of the compounds naturally present, such as chalcone and gallic acid. A study on reconstructed skin suggests that white peony may be an effective treatment for hyperpigmentation-related \u2014 a darkening of patches of skin \u2014 conditions such as melasma and vitiligo. However, more research is needed before it can be recommended for this purpose in humans (<a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full\/10.1111\/ics.12309\">13<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"May_Reduce_Inflammation\"><\/span><b>May Reduce Inflammation<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">White peony is rich in compounds that have anti-inflammatory effects. Researchers have identified two specific components, paeoniflorin and albiflorin, which decrease inflammation by blocking the production of inflammatory proteins. These saponins also block enzymes called COX-2 and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO), both of which are involved in arachidonic acid metabolism (the creation of inflammation) (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fphar.2019.00057\/full\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">12<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The anti-inflammatory properties of white peony might make it an effective adjunct treatment for conditions like arthritis, psoriasis, lupus, scleroderma, ulcerative colitis, hemorrhagic cystitis, and inflamed skin lesions caused by certain types of cancer (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fphar.2019.00057\/full\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">12<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"May_Improve_Digestion_And_Protect_The_Stomach\"><\/span><b>May Improve Digestion And Protect The Stomach<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">White peony contains compounds that may protect the stomach lining from ulcers and other forms of injury.

Theoretically, these antioxidants could interfere with the effectiveness of medical treatments that rely on oxidative damage like radiation or chemotherapy. As a result, it&#8217;s possible that using white peony alongside these drugs may decrease their effectiveness. However, this is only a theoretical concern. There&#8217;s no direct evidence that this tea interferes with chemotherapy or other cancer treatments. Talk to your doctor before trying white peony or any other herbal remedy as an adjunct to your treatments.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Causes_Intravascular_Hemolysis\"><\/span><b>Causes Intravascular Hemolysis<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Intravascular hemolysis (also referred to as extravascular hemolysis) occurs when red blood cells are destroyed within veins or arteries. This leads to problems like anemia, jaundice, and dark urine. Although rare, white peony may have side effects similar to those of garlic (another plant with anticoagulant properties). If you consume large amounts of this herb over a long period, it could cause intravascular hemolysis in people with blood clotting disorders (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/vitamins\/ai\/ingredientmono-32\/peony\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). To be safe, you should avoid using white peony if you have any kind of blood clotting disorder.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=White_Peony_Tea\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33321 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4737-1024x576.png\" alt=\"benefits of lavender chamomile tea\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4737.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4737-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4737.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4737.png 1344w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cautions_Side_Effects\"><\/span><b>Cautions &amp; Side Effects<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People who are pregnant or breastfeeding should use white peony only after consulting with a healthcare provider. The leaves and roots of the plant also contain compounds called pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) that may be harmful to infants, especially if taken by mouth (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/vitamins\/ai\/ingredientmono-32\/peony\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although PA levels in white peonies are significantly lower than in some related species like coltsfoot (Tussilago farfara), daily use of this herb could result in accumulation over time, which can cause liver damage over time (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/vitamins\/ai\/ingredientmono-32\/peony\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Bottom_Line\"><\/span><b>The Bottom Line<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More research is needed on white peony before its benefits can be definitively proven. However, studies so far have offered promising findings in treating cancer, inflammation, pain, depression, anxiety, blood flow disorders, hyperpigmentation, and digestion issues.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">White peony is generally considered safe, although daily consumption can cause liver damage, and there&#8217;s always a chance of an allergic reaction. As long as you take these considerations into account, white peony tea benefits are well worth it. Always talk to your doctor before trying any herbal tea or supplement, especially if you are being treated for a medical condition, are on any medications, or are pregnant or breastfeeding.<\/span><\/p>\n\n    <section class=\"ad-single-wrapper\">\n        <div class=\"ad-single-text ad-title-wrapper\">\n            <h3 class=\"ad-single-title\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Get_your_personalized\"><\/span>Get your personalized<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n            <span class=\"ad-single-sub-title color-green\">\n                <svg class=\"icon-sparkle\" width=\"36\" height=\"21\" viewBox=\"0 0 36 21\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n                    <path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\n                          d=\"M34.6837 0.515943C34.8247 0.835947 34.9421 1.16291 34.9891 1.48987C35.1417 2.64466 35.3179 6.51949 35.2592 7.29863C35.2592 7.53515 35.1887 7.7995 35.0243 8.01516C34.7307 8.39777 33.9791 8.4256 33.5681 8.07081C33.4154 7.94559 33.3215 7.77863 33.2745 7.61863C33.1453 7.15254 33.0396 6.68645 32.9809 6.22035C32.8165 4.81512 32.6638 3.40293 32.5581 1.9977C32.5229 1.53161 32.6051 1.05856 32.6991 0.592466C32.7695 0.244637 33.251 -0.0197144 33.6973 0.00115537C34.2257 0.0289818 34.5546 0.230723 34.6837 0.515943ZM18.6184 9.78225C18.5734 9.67557 18.5344 9.57528 18.4971 9.47956C18.4178 9.27568 18.3465 9.09257 18.2426 8.91267C16.7159 6.24133 14.2615 3.86217 11.4665 1.60128C11.1377 1.33693 10.7267 1.08649 10.2687 0.919531C10.0221 0.829095 9.52885 0.843009 9.247 0.933445C9.03562 1.00301 8.88295 1.27432 8.92992 1.42736C9.01213 1.71954 9.18828 2.01868 9.4349 2.28303C11.0555 4.02913 12.6879 5.76829 14.3437 7.50048C14.8308 8.0068 15.3395 8.50887 15.8473 9.01L15.8473 9.01001C15.9883 9.14921 16.1293 9.28833 16.2697 9.42746C16.4811 9.64311 16.7159 9.85181 16.9626 10.0466C17.2327 10.2692 17.6437 10.4014 18.0547 10.2553C18.0691 10.2501 18.0836 10.245 18.0981 10.2399C18.1097 10.2358 18.1213 10.2318 18.1329 10.2278C18.3785 10.1424 18.6184 10.0589 18.6184 9.78225ZM1.98942 20.1407C2.17783 20.1221 2.37674 20.105 2.58175 20.0875C2.99012 20.0525 3.42272 20.0154 3.84492 19.9598C6.34632 19.6259 8.84771 19.292 11.3374 18.9442C11.8776 18.8676 12.406 18.7355 12.8875 18.5824C13.5334 18.3807 13.7566 18.0954 13.6509 17.7824C13.5452 17.4694 13.1224 17.2746 12.3826 17.2676C11.8776 17.2607 11.3374 17.2676 10.8559 17.3372C7.69683 17.8102 4.5378 18.2972 1.3905 18.7911C1.03819 18.8468 0.674137 18.9442 0.404034 19.0833C-0.2771 19.4242 -0.065712 19.9598 0.803314 20.092C1.01858 20.1228 1.25262 20.1258 1.51135 20.1291C1.66195 20.131 1.82092 20.133 1.98942 20.1407Z\"\n                          fill=\"#17B991\"\/>\n                <\/svg>\n               meal plan!\n            <\/span>\n        <\/div>\n    \n        <div class=\"ad-single-text ad-desc-wrapper\">\n            <p class=\"ad-single-desc\">What's your main health goal?<\/p>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=White_Peony_Tea\" class=\"btn-ad btn-green\">Lose weight<\/a>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=White_Peony_Tea\" class=\"btn-ad btn-green\">Feel great<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n        <img class=\"ad-single-img\" alt=\"health-food\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"395\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/stage.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/themes\/gridlove-child\/assets\/img\/ad\/health-food.webp\">\n    <\/section>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DISCLAIMER\"><\/span><b>DISCLAIMER:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This article is intended for general informational purposes only and does not address individual circumstances.
