CHEST PAIN
 
Safflower is used to move the qi and blood in the chest to relieve chest pain related to angina. In a study using 100 patients treated with a 50 per cent Safflower (Hong Hua) solution, chest-pain relief was noted in 80.8 per cent, marked ECG improvement in 26 per cent and moderate ECG improvement in 40 per cent of the patients. Additionally, most patients in the study also reported a reduction in palpitations, dizziness and headaches.

Safflower usually emerges 1–3 weeks after sowing and grows slower under low temperatures. Germination of safflower is epigeal. The first true leaves emerging form a rosette. This stage occurs in winter with short daylength and cold temperature, as the safflower can tolerate frosts up to -7C° during the rosette stage.
 
When temperature and day length start to increase, the central stem begins to elongate and branch, growing more rapidly. Early sowing allows more time for developing a large rosette and more extensive branching, which results in a higher yield.
