Arceuthobium sichuanense

Arceuthobium sichuanense, also known as the Sichuan dwarf mistletoe, is a type of parasitic plant that grows on the branches of host trees, specifically in the Sichuan province of China.

It has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for its medicinal properties, which include anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects.

The health benefits of Arceuthobium sichuanense include reducing fever, relieving respiratory issues, and promoting wound healing, although more research is needed to confirm its efficacy.

In traditional herbal preparations, the plant is often dried and used in infusions, or made into a tincture, to take advantage of its medicinal properties.
