Lycium barbarum is flat and sweet. Long-term consumption has the effects of tonifying kidney and liver, benefiting eyesight, strengthening bones and muscles, eliminating low back pain and prolonging life. However, although Lycium barbarum is a treasure of nourishing and health care, its warming effect is very obvious. Honeysuckle is sweet and cold in nature, belonging to lung, heart and stomach meridians. It has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, cooling blood and stopping dysentery, and has pharmacological effects of resisting pathogenic microorganisms, resisting bacteria, resisting inflammation, resisting virus, relieving fever, inhibiting ulcer, reducing capillary permeability, improving immunity, reducing blood lipid, promoting gallbladder function and protecting liver.
So it is best not to drink the two plants together.
If you drink honeysuckle alone, you can get rid of fire, and so can children. Now there are also newborn children who wash their faces or wipe their bodies with honeysuckle water.
Another kind of tea suitable for children is seven star tea, which can be drunk after boiling a cup of tea in water for a few minutes.
Honeysuckle and seven star tea are suitable for children to drink, usually when their constitution is on fire.
