The complicated spelling of the word "medicine" in traditional Chinese medicine? The lower part of the word "T" represents the meaning of the word "wine", indicating that Chinese medicine has never left wine since ancient times. Medicinal liquor is made up of different prescriptions and wines, which is called "medicinal liquor" by Chinese medicine and is a traditional product of Chinese medicine. Medicinal liquor combines the advantages of wine and Chinese medicine, which can not only preserve health, but also enhance the efficacy and prevent diseases, and also plays an important role in the history of Chinese medicine development.

How to choose health wine and medicinal liquor

Everything is good or bad, depending on the situation. As consumers, when choosing medicinal liquor and health wine, the most important thing is to know their own needs. Of course, we must first understand them clearly, and then choose according to our needs.

Consumers should choose appropriate medicinal liquor and health wine according to their own physical condition and the advice of doctors or experts to avoid excessive drinking. Generally speaking, the choice of medicinal liquor and health wine depends on people, time, age and gender, and should be chosen according to symptoms.

Because people depend on their physical condition; It refers to the season and time at the same time. Throughout the year, yin and yang alternate, and the choice of medicinal liquor and health wine in different seasons should be different. If they are the same, it would be a big mistake.

Generally speaking, winter, spring and autumn are suitable for drinking, and winter tonic is better. The temperature is high and the weather is hot in summer, so be careful. Even 24 hours a day should be different. For example, around noon, the human liver is at its peak, so it is best to drink less or even not. After 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the liver is at rest, so it is good to drink a little wine in moderation.

Because of age, this seemingly easy-to-master, but actually difficult problem has been ignored. Middle-aged and elderly people must be different, so that they can argue about wine;

Because of gender, because the physiological functions of men and women are different, we should strictly master them. When choosing medicinal liquor and health wine, we should pay attention to reading the instructions carefully, understand that it is suitable for the crowd and drink it scientifically.
