1, the effect of microwave heating on the injury of traditional Chinese medicine
Jiang Xiaonan, a licensed pharmacist in the Pharmacy Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University, answered: Cooking Chinese medicine in microwave oven is easy to affect the curative effect, and other problems may be encountered in actual operation.
The heating principle of microwave oven is that microwave acts on food, making its internal molecules vibrate to generate heat. When traditional Chinese medicine is heated by microwave oven, the internal molecular vibration of the medicine generates heat, which makes the medicine destroy and deteriorate from the molecular level and lose its original efficacy.
In addition, it is usually necessary to cover the decoctions and hot medicines. If you use a microwave oven, it is difficult to know exactly when the Chinese medicine is cooked and whether the water added is enough. It is also difficult to observe the heat at any time, and it is not convenient to stir traditional Chinese medicine during the decocting process. Because different medicines have different decocting times and methods, don't heat Chinese medicines in the microwave oven, let alone fry Chinese medicines in the microwave oven.
It is suggested that if you buy decoctions in a drugstore, put the soup in a heat-resistant container and heat it in a pot for 15-20 minutes when you heat it at home.
