Dendrobium lohohense Tang & F.T.Wang
Chinese name: Luohe Shihu (Luo River Dendrobium) Japanese herbal name: Chukanso Dendrobium lohohense, commonly known as Luohe Shihu or Luo River Dendrobium, is an orchid species. It is also referred to as Chukanso in Japanese herbal medicine. This orchid contains a compound called shihunine, which is utilized by shamans in the Amazonian Basin as part of their rituals. Shihunine has the unique property of rapidly and almost completely converting into betaine. Betaine is a compound commonly found in dietary supplements and is sometimes prescribed by physicians, along with vitamins B6, B12, and folic acid, for individuals with elevated levels of homocysteine in their blood. High homocysteine levels are associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease and stroke. However, it is important to note that consuming Dendrobium lohohense or its shihunine content does not guarantee prevention or treatment of cardiovascular disease. In traditional Chinese medicine, Dendrobium lohohense is collected and used as shihu. Shihu is a general term used for various Dendrobium species in Chinese herbal medicine. While the specific herbal usage of Dendrobium lohohense may vary, it is recognized as a valuable plant within traditional Chinese medicine. |

In Ayurvedic medicine, it is referred to as Jeewanti in the Sarangadhara Sanghita. In Sri Lanka, it is called Jata makuta.
