Chinese medicine itself contains different properties, that is to say, some Chinese medicines are hot, some are warm, some are cold and some are cold. Therefore, if its nature is different, it can't be changed because of the outside world. Once this nature is changed, it will affect the absorption of drugs, and when we drink Chinese medicine, we add sugar, mostly because the medicine is too bitter.

brown sugar and white sugar are two kinds of sugars that are very commonly used in life. Adding them to medicine can make it less unpleasant, but it is said that Chinese medicine can't add brown sugar and white sugar casually. For example, traditional Chinese medicine used for resolving phlegm and relieving cough can't be added with white sugar, because it is inherently hot. Adding white sugar will affect its heat and its efficacy, and the effect of resolving phlegm and relieving cough will not be good, which will affect the function of this medicine. So, although traditional Chinese medicine is not bitter and has no effect, there is naturally no need to drink it, so even if it is bitter, it will have to endure the nose to drink it, so as to have a better absorption effect.

when drinking Chinese medicine, you can't add some substances by yourself. Whether it is brown sugar or white sugar, they all have their own properties. It is obvious that women can drink some brown sugar water during the physiological period to warm the uterus. Therefore, adding brown sugar to some drugs that are naturally cool will also destroy its own efficacy, so brown sugar and white sugar can't be added casually, and taking Chinese medicine makes these drugs bitter because they contain a lot of iron and zinc, which will make people feel bitter when they are put in the medicine. Although he is bitter, it is precisely because of these bitter substances that this medicine has an effect.

Chinese medicine and western medicine are two systems. In western medicine, if you think the medicine is particularly bitter, you can add some sugar, which will not destroy its effective components. However, if sugar is added casually in Chinese medicine, its properties will change, which will affect the body's absorption of medicinal effects. Moreover, Chinese medicine has certain requirements on the time and times of decocting, so it is necessary to communicate with doctors to ensure good drug absorption.
