The invention discloses application of
ligusticum chuanxiong hort
essential oil, including application of
ligusticum chuanxiong hort
essential oil in preparation of drugs for treating or preventing brain dysfunctions and disorder diseases, and application of
ligusticum chuanxiong hort
essential oil in preparation of healthy products for improving brain dysfunctions and treating disorder diseases.According to the application, the novel application of the
ligusticum chuanxiong hort essential oil in drugs or large healthy products showing activity in brain dysfunctions and disorder diseases of experimental animals is found for the first time, and it is found for the first time that the
ligusticum chuanxiong hort essential oil or a composition containing the
