Toxic and side effects:

Snake bile contains bile toxins, histamine, bile salts, cyanide and other substances. After entering the human gastrointestinal tract, its toxic components are absorbed, enter the liver, and then are excreted by the kidneys. Therefore, among poisoning patients, the incidence of acute renal failure and liver damage is the highest, followed by the involvement of organs such as stomach, intestine, heart and brain. If not rescued in time, the mortality rate is very high.

In martial arts novels, people who are seriously injured often swallow snake gall and gain "divine power", which makes some people who don't know the truth think that they can cure diseases and strengthen their bodies and compete to follow suit.

Modern medical research shows that swallowing snake gall is extremely harmful and can easily lead to poisoning, ranging from nausea, vomiting and dizziness to life-threatening. So, never take it yourself.

After the snake gall is processed, the medicinal liquor prepared with white wine is snake gall wine, which has the functions of expelling wind and removing dampness, strengthening the body, relieving cough and resolving phlegm. It has a good clinical effect on rheumatoid arthritis, blurred vision, cough with excessive phlegm, convulsion and hemiplegia. Although snake gall wine has rich medicinal effects, it needs the right medicine and cannot be taken casually as a tonic. Because snake gall tastes bitter and cold, it is not toxic.

Snake bile contains bile acids, cholesterol, amino acids and other effective components. Although it has a significant effect on improving human microcirculation, regulating endocrine and promoting toxin decomposition and excretion, if it is not treated according to syndrome differentiation, it will not only cure the disease, but will suffer from loss. For example, for diseases such as red eyes, tinnitus and expectoration caused by excessive internal heat, drinking snake gall wine not only has no therapeutic effect, but will aggravate the condition.

In addition, you can't drink snake gall wine prepared on the spot in the building or restaurant. Although snake gall is a traditional Chinese medicine, there are strict regulations on the source, processing method, taking method and dosage of medicinal snake gall. Generally speaking, the procedure of preparing snake gall wine in restaurants is to take the snake gall directly out of the snake belly, break it and add it to the wine. Raw snake gall contains a lot of toxic substances from the liver, and even many parasites.

Only by soaking fresh snake gall with high concentration wine for a long time can the parasite be killed. If you drink snake bile wine without strict processing, it will cause acute gastroenteritis, typhoid fever, paratyphoid fever, parasitic infection and other diseases, and seriously induce liver and renal failure. Therefore, although snake gall wine is good, it should be used with caution.
