1. Kidney-tonifying and yang-strengthening effect: Morinda officinalis is one of the important Chinese medicines for tonifying the kidney and strengthening yang. In recent years some researchers have conducted modern pharmacological studies on its mechanism of tonifying the kidney and strengthening yang, and they consider that this effect of Morinda officinalis acts mainly by regulating the endocrine system and the content of trace elements. 2. Effect on the haematopoietic system: the iron content of Morinda officinalis is as high as 595.75 micrograms/g; iron participates in the synthesis of haemoglobin, myoglobin, cytochrome and various enzyme systems and in the tricarboxylic acid cycle, and accumulates in large amounts in the mitochondria of cells of organs such as the liver and kidney, giving it a relatively strong blood-stimulating effect.
