1, can eating baked oranges relieve cough?
Experts say that oranges are sweet and sour, warm in nature, and have the effects of appetizing, regulating qi, quenching thirst and moistening the lungs. Orange peel is an important medicine for regulating qi blindly, removing dryness, promoting diuresis, resolving phlegm, relieving cough, strengthening spleen and regulating stomach. The orange peel epidermis scraped off the white inner layer is called orange red, which has the functions of regulating lung qi, eliminating phlegm and relieving cough. The orange collaterals in the orange peel can dredge collaterals, eliminate phlegm, regulate qi and eliminate stagnation. Therefore, oranges are commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine to relieve cough and resolve phlegm.
When orange peel is roasted by fire, fresh orange peel can be turned into dried tangerine peel in a short time under the action of fire. Because fresh oranges contain a lot of water, roasting oranges with fire is equivalent to decocting dried tangerine peel in water. Dried tangerine peel decoction can dilate bronchi and treat cough and asthma. The pulp of orange is rich in vitamin C, which can enhance the anti-inflammatory effect and resist the inflammatory reaction of bronchus. Thus, in theory, baked oranges are effective, but it is suggested that orange peel and orange meat should be eaten together.
Although baked oranges can relieve cough, not everyone is suitable for eating. Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae is warm and bitter in taste, which mainly has the functions of activating qi and strengthening spleen, moistening dryness and resolving phlegm, and is suitable for people with spleen and stomach deficiency and phlegm-dampness system. Because it is pungent, warm and dry, it is easy to hurt yin, so people with large internal heat are not suitable for eating, and it is easy to get angry after eating.
