According to AI:
Stephen Buhner primarily recommends Salvia miltiorrhiza (Dan Shen or Red Sage) for its cardiovascular benefits, its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, and its role in protecting the body's physiological structures, particularly in the context of complex infections like Lyme disease and emerging infections. 
Key benefits and uses according to Buhner's work include:
Cardiovascular and Circulatory Support: Dan Shen is considered a vital herb for promoting blood circulation, improving coronary blood flow, and dissipating blood stasis, which is a key concept in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
Anti-inflammatory Effects: It is valued for its potent anti-inflammatory properties, which help to reduce systemic inflammation in the body.
Antioxidant Activity: The herb is rich in active ingredients like salvianolic acids and tanshinones that possess strong antioxidant capabilities, protecting cells from oxidative stress and free radical damage.
Protection of Endothelial Structures: In his protocols for systemic infections, Buhner emphasizes the herb's role in protecting the integrity of endothelial cells (the inner lining of blood vessels) and other damaged physiological structures.
Immune System Support: Buhner incorporates Salvia miltiorrhiza in his protocols to enhance immune function and help modulate the cytokine cascade, which can be a significant issue in inflammatory conditions and infections.
Specific Conditions: It is a key component in his renowned protocols for managing Lyme disease and associated symptoms, such as muscle relaxation and addressing the effects of the infection on the circulatory system. He also considers it important for addressing symptoms related to various emerging infections. 
 
Buhner suggests using the root of the plant, often prepared as a tincture or a powder. It is important to note that Salvia miltiorrhiza can interact with certain medications, particularly blood thinners like warfarin, and a healthcare professional should be consulted before use, especially if taking prescription heart medications.*
