1, traditional Chinese medicine taboo
1. Generally, when taking traditional Chinese medicine, you should eat less indigestible foods such as beans, meat and cold food, so as not to increase the burden on the patient's stomach and thus affect the recovery speed of the patient. People with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold should eat less food-borne diseases, and should fast or eat less alcohol, spicy food, fish and meat. Because these foods have the functions of resolving stagnation, generating heat and producing phlegm, eating them will promote pathogenic factors and make the disease worse. When taking drugs for relieving exterior syndrome and penetrating rash, you should eat less poor food with astringent effect, and drink less tea when taking warm tonic drugs, because some teas are cool and can lower the temperature of drugs.
2. When taking drugs for clearing heat, cooling blood and nourishing yin, it is not advisable to eat spicy food. Because spicy food is hot, patients with heat syndrome (constipation, oliguria, dry mouth, dry mouth and lips, dry throat, dry red tongue, thin fur peeling, etc. ) will take spicy food to offset the drugs that clear heat and cool blood (gypsum, honeysuckle, forsythia, gardenia, rehmannia root, peony bark, etc.). ) and nourishing yin drugs (Dendrobium, Adenophora adenophora, Ophiopogon japonicus, Anemarrhena asphodeloides, etc.
3. Improper combination of drugs and food will reduce the curative effect and even produce toxic and side effects. Therefore, people with bitter taste, dry throat, high blood pressure, mental anxiety, tachycardia and hyperthyroidism should generally avoid eating polysaccharides, high-fat spicy food, cold hands and feet, thin stool, low blood pressure and bradycardia, and avoid eating watermelon, wax gourd, radish, mung bean, raw pear, sugarcane, honey and turtle.
4. When taking traditional Chinese medicine for clearing fire, it is not advisable to eat hot foods such as onions, garlic, peppers, mutton and dog meat; When taking traditional Chinese medicine to treat "cold syndrome", you should avoid eating cold food. When taking these drugs, if you eat taboo food, the curative effect will be unsatisfactory or even counterproductive.
5. Don't drink strong tea when taking Chinese medicine, because tea contains tannic acid, and strong tea contains more tannic acid. Taking it together with traditional Chinese medicine will affect the absorption of effective components of traditional Chinese medicine and reduce the curative effect; Coffee, cola, sprite and other drinks are not suitable for drinking; We should mainly drink boiled water.
2. Can I eat eggs if I take Chinese medicine?
1, purely from the nutritional point of view, it is completely ok to eat eggs during taking Chinese medicine, as long as it is not eaten immediately. Because eating it immediately will affect the medicinal properties of traditional Chinese medicine.

3, Chinese medicine generally hurts the stomach, can be used half an hour after meals, eggs can be used after eating a small amount of starchy food, which is helpful for absorption.
