Ejiao is a tonic, and there are still some taboos when eating it. The following are some common ones for your reference.
1. Use with caution those with spleen and stomach weakness, vomiting and diarrhea, abdominal distension and loose stool, and cough with excessive phlegm. Because Ejiao is greasy, the digestive system is not good, or people with gastrointestinal diseases need to eat less or not.
2. Patients with ulcer bleeding must take it half a month after hemostasis;
3, abortion and postpartum need to wait for lochia to be discharged before taking it;
4, women can not take it during menstruation, otherwise it will cause menorrhagia, and it can be taken after menstruation.
5, patients with cold and diarrhea should not take it.
6. Pregnant women, patients with hypertension and diabetes should take it under the guidance of a doctor.
7. If the child is too young (less than 3 years old), don't take it.
8. People with yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity need to reduce the dosage or frequency as appropriate to prevent symptoms of getting angry such as sore throat.
9. For general tonic, Ejiao should be taken on an empty stomach. Ejiao, as a decoction, should be drunk hot, not cold. Colla Corii Asini is used as ointment and should be dissolved in boiling water. When Ejiao is used as medicine, it should be taken with warm wine or warm water.
10, Apoplexy patients should not take Ejiao, because Ejiao will increase platelets (stroke patients are generally blood stasis), which may cause another stroke.
1 1. rhubarb and donkey-hide gelatin are compatible and should not be used. Avoid eating radish, garlic and strong tea within 2 hours before and after taking Ejiao, otherwise it will reduce the efficacy of Ejiao.
