Panax Notoginseng, also known as "Sanqi" or "Tianqi," is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb historically used for hemostasis, cardiovascular health, and anti-inflammatory effects. Its primary uses in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) have focused on promoting blood circulation, reducing swelling, and alleviating pain. While Panax Notoginseng is sometimes included in multi-herb formulas for general organ support, there is no specific, well-documented tradition of using it to support the "Pancreas Head" or the pancreas specifically, either in TCM or other herbal systems. The pancreas as a distinct organ is not typically emphasized in classical TCM texts in the same way as in Western medicine, although the "Spleen" in TCM is sometimes considered functionally analogous to aspects of the pancreas.

Scientific studies have investigated Panax Notoginseng saponins for their effects on blood sugar regulation and potential protective effects against diabetes-related complications, but direct evidence supporting its use specifically for "pancreas head" support is limited and mostly preclinical, involving animal or cell studies. No robust clinical trials or scientific consensus currently validate its use for this precise purpose. Therefore, its application for pancreas head support is primarily justified by broader traditional use and anecdotal reports, not by targeted scientific validation.
