Cream prescription is a traditional health preserving method with the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine, which prevailed in Ming and Qing dynasties. In fact, there are some familiar creams on the market now, such as Qiuli Cream and Guiling Cream. The delicate cream is "one person, one side, one furnace of cream", which is eaten in the spring from the solstice of winter. For example, it's colder in Beijing than in the south, so the time can be advanced to beginning of winter.
The main function of ointment is to tonify deficiency and help the weak, and it is suitable for people who are usually deficient in qi and blood, weak in constitution or recovering after operation and postpartum. Especially for the young and middle-aged people, if they often have sub-health conditions such as fatigue, palpitation and insomnia and memory loss, they can take cream to improve their physique.
You shouldn't eat cream when you have a cold.
In the traditional Chinese medicine hospital, every kind of ointment is prepared by the doctor according to everyone's symptoms and physique. Therefore, before taking ointment, you need to know whether your body is suitable for tonic.
For example, some prescriptions contain greasy ointment ingredients, which will inevitably aggravate the discomfort of people with poor gastrointestinal function and poor digestion and absorption. For these people, doctors often have to prescribe a "prescription" first, and then wait until the gastrointestinal function returns to normal and they don't feel full when eating. Moreover, people suffering from diseases such as cold and cough must cure their cold and cough before taking supplements. Otherwise, it is not only uncomfortable to take tonic, but also difficult to treat a cold and cough.
In addition, the doctor reminded that people with particularly weak spleen and stomach, people with heavy body moisture, people with chronic diseases and people with chronic hepatitis should not eat cream. If you want to recuperate, you'd better go to Chinese medicine in advance and don't blindly take supplements.
It is not advisable to drink tea when taking cream.
Pay attention to your diet while taking the cream. Because tonic and food may sometimes interact in the body, affecting the curative effect of tonic.
For example, when taking a cream containing ginseng, astragalus and other qi-invigorating ingredients, you should avoid eating radishes, because radishes are foods that break qi and eliminate menstruation. If you are diagnosed as yang deficiency and cold by a doctor, you should avoid eating a cold diet; If you are a person with yin deficiency and fire, avoid spicy and irritating food; If you have asthma, you should avoid the smell of shrimp and crabs. Only when medicine and food complement each other can the body be better nourished. In addition, it is not advisable to drink tea water when taking the cream, because tea can be an antidote and will affect the curative effect.
Administration method of ointment
Take one or two tablespoons a day for a winter.
It's important to keep eating cream. The ointment is not very strong, and it takes effect slowly, so it needs to be taken for a long time. Wash the cream with boiling water every morning, then take a spoonful on an empty stomach, or take a spoonful on an empty stomach in the morning and evening. If the prescription uses nourishing drugs such as Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, or the amount of gum in the ingredients is relatively large, it is difficult to melt when eating, and it needs to be steamed with clear water before eating. If you feel troublesome, you can also put the cream in your mouth and turn it into juice to exert its efficacy.
The dosage of plaster should be determined according to one's own physique and medicinal properties, and it should be decided after a doctor's diagnosis. Plaster usually takes four to six weeks, but it won't be effective until the next spring.
