What is the difference between Globe amaranth and Red Qiaomei

1. Globe amaranth and red amaranth are both annual upright herbs, and they look somewhat similar. From a botanical point of view, both red amaranth and red amaranth belong to the Amaranthaceae family, but red amaranth is a precious variety of the amaranth family. In other words, red amaranth is also amaranth, but amaranth is not necessarily amaranth.

2. There is also a clear difference in the origin of globe amaranth and red strawberry. Globe amaranth is mainly produced in tropical America and was later introduced to all parts of the world. This plant has not appeared in China for a long time, but red strawberry is one of China's unique plants. This plant is mainly produced in the southwestern border areas of China. As early as in ancient times, its dried flowers were supplied to the imperial court. The annual output is extremely scarce and the market value is particularly high.

3. Globe amaranth can be cultivated on a large scale as an ornamental plant, or made into bonsai or flower baskets and other decorations. Its petals can be used as medicine and can also be made into scented tea for people to drink. However, Globe amaranth is mainly wild, and there are few records of it being cultivated artificially. Its inflorescence can also be used as medicine. People can dry it after collecting it, and use it to boil water when needed or brew it with boiling water for later consumption.

4. Both Globe amaranth and Red Qiaomei have high medicinal value, but their medicinal effects are different. Globe amaranth can reduce inflammation and kill bacteria, dilate tracheal diseases, relieve cough and reduce phlegm. It is very beneficial to maintain the health of the human respiratory system, and is a commonly used drug for clinical treatment of human asthma, venous tracheitis and whooping cough. The effect of Red Qiaomei is different from that of Globe amaranth. Its main effect is to regulate the endocrine system of the human body and dredge the meridians. After taking it, people can improve their body's disease resistance, delay body aging, and prevent various diseases caused by irregular menstruation.
