Who is suitable for drinking chrysanthemum tea?
Chrysanthemum tea has the function of clearing heat and removing fire, which is very helpful to improve dry mouth and astringency. At the same time, it can also improve eyesight and has a good effect on treating eye fatigue and blurred vision. For people who are cold and weak, adding some rock sugar to chrysanthemum tea can slightly weaken the coldness. For those who are hot and strong, adding rock sugar will weaken the heat-clearing effect of chrysanthemum tea. Therefore, it is best for people who are hot to drink chrysanthemum tea directly without adding sugar. For diabetics, adding sugar is even worse for health.
In addition, people who are physically weak will add honey when drinking chrysanthemum tea, and the therapeutic effect will be better. Moreover, honey is also rich in vitamins and amino acids, which can improve the nutritional value of chrysanthemum tea. However, it should be noted that people with loose stools had better not add honey.
Different constitutions should choose different herbal teas. Drinking them casually can not only achieve health care, but sometimes it will cause side effects. When getting angry, it is necessary to distinguish between excess and deficiency, such as Prunella vulgaris and chrysanthemum tea, which have the effects of clearing away heat and fire, clearing liver and improving eyesight, and both of them have the effect of symptomatic fire extinguishing. However, we should pay attention to it, because the sex is bitter and cold, and people with physical weakness should not drink more. Finally, I need to remind you that no matter what kind of chrysanthemum is used to make tea, you should not drink it continuously, usually for 3-5 days. People with cold constitution should put some medlar when drinking chrysanthemum tea, while people with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold had better drink less.
Who can't drink chrysanthemum tea?
1, pregnant women
Chrysanthemum tea is cold and sweet, which has an excellent effect of dispelling internal heat. However, pregnant women have low immunity and weak spleen and stomach. Eating chrysanthemum tea is easy to stimulate the stomach and cause symptoms such as abdominal pain and diarrhea, which is not conducive to the healthy growth of the fetus.
Therefore, pregnant women who love to drink chrysanthemum tea should pay attention. Once they find that they are pregnant, it is best not to drink chrysanthemum tea again. You can drink some fruit tea instead, and then drink it after giving birth.
2. People with allergies
In our real life, some people will be allergic to chrysanthemum tea. If they drink chrysanthemum tea, they will cause allergic phenomena such as skin redness and rash. Therefore, people who are allergic to chrysanthemum tea will have side effects, which is not good for their health.
If you have never drunk chrysanthemum tea and don't know if you are allergic, it is safer to drink less when you drink it for the first time, and then continue to drink it after making sure there is no adverse reaction.
3, cold constitution
People with cold constitution are afraid of cold than ordinary people, and their bodies are weak, and their spleen and stomach are also very weak. Chrysanthemum tea is a cold tea, which is not suitable for people with cold constitution who will have cold hands and feet in summer. Drinking chrysanthemum tea will only aggravate their symptoms and be harmful to their health.
4. Old people and children
Although chrysanthemum tea has many benefits to the human body, not all people can drink it. Perhaps everyone thinks that drinking chrysanthemum tea can lower blood pressure and cholesterol for the elderly, and it is not a big problem to eat it in summer, but the digestive function of the elderly is reduced and the spleen and stomach are weak. Drinking chrysanthemum tea may cause gastrointestinal diseases, so the elderly should be cautious.
Children are at the peak of growth and development, and the yang is at that time. Drinking chrysanthemum tea has the effect of reducing the yang, so it is best to ban it.
5, typhoid cold
Under normal circumstances, people with typhoid fever are all caused by catching cold, and the properties of chrysanthemum tea determine that this kind of cold patients are not suitable for drinking. In addition, people with cold and pharyngitis can't drink chrysanthemum tea.
Of course, if you have a cold caused by hot air as mentioned in Chinese medicine, you can drink chrysanthemum tea. But you can only drink it after you have been examined by a professional Chinese medicine doctor. Don't just drink it yourself.

How to make chrysanthemum tea?
Step 1: Wash tea.
Although chrysanthemum is different from tea, don't forget that there is a lot of dust and oil mixed into chrysanthemum during drying, so you must soak it in hot water at 80 degrees for 3 to 5 seconds, and then filter the water quickly. Because for a long time, the nutrition of chrysanthemum will be filtered out, and the best golden combination point must be mastered in this contradiction.
Step 2: Make tea.
Use 100 degree boiling water or hot water cooled to 90 degrees to rush into the chrysanthemum, and leave it for 5 minutes to drink. Note that hot water must have rushed into the chrysanthemum instead of putting hot water into the chrysanthemum. This is because hot water rushing in will stir the chrysanthemums, and the soaked chrysanthemums will be full, so you don't need to stir them specially. When you put the chrysanthemums in hot water, you have to stir them, otherwise they will float on the water.
Step 3: repeat the soaking.
Regarding the number of times of repeated soaking, I personally think that it is enough to soak twice. If the number of times is too much, for example, if it is more than three times, it will be meaningless. There is no nutrition, except wasting your effort.
Conclusion: Although chrysanthemum is homologous to medicine and food, it is best not to drink the bitter wild chrysanthemum. If people with allergies want to drink chrysanthemum tea, they should try one or two flowers first. If there is no problem, they should soak more, but they should not drink too much. Drinking chrysanthemum tea often also has anti-aging effect. Chrysanthemum tea is also a kind of health tea, so you can drink more in your daily life.
