There are many kinds of health wine, which have certain health-preserving effects, mainly due to the need to pay attention to dosage and usage and personal physique. Health wine originated from the divine prescription of Zhang Zhongjing, a medical sage in Han Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, it was combined with the folk brewing method in Xishan area, which was famous as "Changshou Village" at that time, and finally became the royal wine specially prepared by Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, and was named by him. Later, health wine was mostly enjoyed by emperors in past dynasties, which was used to concentrate and prolong life.

The main functions of health wine can be summarized as follows:

(1) Warm up to keep out the cold: At present, grain wine is mainly used as the base wine in the market. Drinking health wine can dilate blood vessels on the skin, increase blood flow, thus producing a warm feeling and warming the body against the cold. However, taking it in large quantities will dilate blood vessels and not contract in time, resulting in a large amount of heat loss and a drop in body temperature, which is easy to cause a cold.

(2) Gathering qi and concentrating: If the added medicinal materials have the effect of invigorating qi and concentrating, then the health wine has a certain effect of invigorating qi and concentrating.

(3) Promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis: Some health wines are specially aimed at friends with rheumatism and rheumatoid diseases, and their functions are to dredge meridians and promote blood circulation. Under the dual effects of alcohol and medicinal materials, the meridians will be more comfortable.

(4) Beauty: After entering middle age, many women often have freckles and chloasma on their faces, and they are also prone to liver depression, chest pain, irregular menstruation and even chest tightness and shortness of breath. Health wine, if combined with precious Chinese herbal medicines for warming and nourishing, can promote human metabolism and has the effect of beauty beauty.

With the progress of modern science and technology, health wine has developed to use modern means such as extraction and leaching to extract Chinese medicine ingredients more effectively. However, health wine is different from medicated wine. Although it is also rich in traditional Chinese medicine ingredients, it uses more things with the same origin of medicine and food, so its function mainly lies in health care, not in treating diseases.
