Euryale ferox can be eaten by the general population, especially women with leukorrhagia, kidney deficiency, backache and spleen and stomach weakness, and women with anemia and physical weakness. Therefore, Euryale ferox can be properly eaten during menstruation, but it has a strong astringent effect and is not suitable for people with constipation and red urine and postpartum women. People who usually have abdominal distension symptoms should avoid eating. Therefore, menstrual women with these inappropriate symptoms can't eat Euryale ferox.

During menstruation, you can also cook brown sugar with Gordon Euryale and red dates. Euryale ferox has the functions of invigorating spleen and benefiting qi, strengthening red dates and harmonizing stomach. Lotus seeds have the effect of clearing heart fire, and brown sugar can relieve menstrual pain. Eating several kinds together can not only invigorate qi and nourish blood, but also relieve symptoms such as menstrual tension and abdominal pain. During menstruation, qi and blood are deficient, and foods that tonify qi and blood have better effects, and can also improve physical discomfort such as dizziness.
