Question 1: The problem of Chinese medicine decoction Hello, Chinese medicine decoction directly affects its curative effect. Therefore, it is necessary to know the decocting methods of traditional Chinese medicine. First of all, it is best to use casserole or porcelain pot for decoction, and avoid using metal utensils such as iron and copper, because most medicinal materials will undergo chemical changes after contact with metals, which will affect the therapeutic effect of drugs. Second, soak. Soak the medicine in clear water for 30 minutes before decocting, then heat it, and do not boil it directly, otherwise the protein in the medicine will soon solidify, which will affect the decoction of the effective components in traditional Chinese medicine. As for how much water to add, it depends on the amount. Generally, there is a little more water than medicine, so each dose of decoction is about 1.50ml, with fewer children and more patients with fever. In addition, pay attention to the heat when cooking. Use a big fire before boiling, and use a small fire after boiling. At the same time, pay attention to cover and boil to prevent the volatile components in the medicine from escaping. Traditional Chinese medicine has different medicinal properties and different decocting time. For example, if exterior-relieving drugs cannot be decocted for a long time, they usually need to be decocted after 15 minutes; Nourishing tonic with thick taste should be boiled for a long time, and then boiled with slow fire for about 1 hour, so that the effective components in the medicine can be better dissolved in water. In addition, some toxic drugs, such as Radix Aconiti Lateralis and Rhizoma Pinelliae, can reduce or eliminate their toxicity after being decocted with slow fire for a long time. The decocting time is also slightly longer. After the medicine is boiled, strain out the juice while it is hot. Generally, each dose of medicine is only decocted twice.

Question 2: You need to buy a frying pan to cook Chinese medicine, but there are many brands. Which brand is good? There are two kinds of electric frying pans on the market. The first one is made of ceramic material, which can be divided into integrated type and split type. The integrated ceramic pot body is connected with the base, and the power cord can be plugged in. The bottom is a metal heating plate, and the medicinal materials are in direct contact with the metal, which will affect the efficacy. Although this pot is very cheap, it will affect the efficacy. The split pot body and the base can be separated, the metal heating plate is on the base, there is no metal in the pot body, and the medicinal materials will not contact with the metal, so the pot body is baked and heated on the heating plate, so the heat loss of this pot is large and the heat conversion rate is not high. The second one is made of glass. This kind of pot is generally called health pot, and there are generally two kinds. One is glass pot body+metal heating plate+silica gel. This kind of pot will also come into contact with metals, which will also affect the efficacy and is not recommended. The last one is also the ideal one. The whole pot is made of glass, without any metal or silica gel. The heating element is close to the outside of the pot, which has high thermal efficiency and saves electricity. Representative brands are Wandiwang, Baika and Shanshui.

Question 3: Can an electric kettle be used to cook Chinese medicine? Electric kettle is generally made of metal or plastic, which is not suitable for cooking Chinese medicine. Although the general health pot is made of glass, there is a metal heating plate and a silicone ring at the bottom. These things are soaked in water and come into contact with ingredients and herbs. This pot is even less suitable for boiling Chinese medicine. The real health pot is all-glass structure, the pot body is integrally formed, the bottom is also glass, and there is no metal or silica gel at all. This pot is very suitable for boiling Chinese medicine, boiling water, making soup and making yogurt. Representative brands are: Wandiwang, Hairong and Jiabu.

Question 4: What brand of electric medicine pot is good? Chaozhou Cibao Electric Appliance Factory is located in Chaozhou, the "porcelain capital of China".

Question 5: Is it good to cook Chinese medicine in an electric frying pan? No, some drugs will be heated unevenly! So the efficacy can't be stimulated! There is also the decomposition of some drugs! It is suggested that casserole is the best if it is convenient!

Question 6: Is the electric frying pan integrated or split? It is best not to use electric frying pan to decoct medicine, because a lot of physical and chemical changes will occur in the process of decocting medicine, which may react chemically with the material of the container. Secondly, the flame size of electric frying pan is not well controlled, and the adjustment of firepower in the process of decocting medicine is not well controlled, which will lead to poor curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine and increase unnecessary economic burden. It is best to use a ceramic container and a gas stove for decocting medicine, so that the operation of decocting medicine can be strictly carried out.

It's my pleasure to answer your questions!

Question 7: When cooking Chinese medicine, do you cook it in an electric cooker or with fire? According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, open fire is better. But pay attention to the paste. From the point of view of saving trouble, the plug-in will not be pasted and the operation is simple.
