Dandelion is a common wild vegetable, which has various benefits of green leafy vegetables, such as rich dietary fiber, vitamin C, vitamin B2, folic acid, calcium, potassium, magnesium and so on.

If you just want to soak in water, the advantage is that some plant active substances contained in dandelion will dissolve into water, but it is still necessary to consider that the content of oxalic acid and alkaloids in dandelion is relatively high, which will affect the digestion and absorption of nutrients, so not everyone is suitable for drinking. For example, some people with weak gastrointestinal digestive function are not recommended to drink. Moreover, the taste of wild vegetables is bitter, so it may be difficult for some people to accept it if they are soaked in water.

Compared with soaking dandelion in water, you can actually blanch it directly and eat it directly, which will preserve the nutrition more comprehensively than soaking it in water. At the same time, after blanching, it will not only taste better, but also taste less bitter, and some anti-nutritional substances will be removed.

Another thing to be reminded is that if you want to eat or soak in water, you must pay attention to the food source of dandelion. It will be safer if you buy it directly and plant it artificially, but if you go to the park or collect it by yourself, forget it.

To sum up, soaking dandelion in water is really not as magical as everyone says. There is no need for special infatuation, no outstanding advantages and no shocking harm. Like to drink, and occasionally have a drink of contemporary tea.

Dandelion itself is just a very common weed. After certain processing, it does have some functions that can be used by people. For example, dandelion soaked in water has three health-preserving functions that are worth using.

1. diuresis, discharge moisture.

Now people don't know what's wrong. No matter how old they are, they always say that their humidity is heavy, which may have a lot to do with modern people's living habits. For people with moisture in the body, dandelion soaking in water can play a certain role, because dandelion has diuretic effect and can excrete moisture in the body by urination.

2. Prevention of mammary gland hyperplasia

Breast hyperplasia is not uncommon among female friends, and some may be benign. For example, before menstruation comes, there will be breast swelling and pain, and there are some small nodules, but they will subside after menstruation. Some hyperplasia of mammary glands is pathological and needs to be relieved by drug treatment and diet conditioning. For diseases, the best way is to prevent them. According to ancient records, dandelion has the function of preventing female breast pain, that is to say, dandelion can play a preventive role in general mammary gland hyperplasia.

3. Clearing away heat and toxic materials, nourishing and protecting the liver

Anyone who knows a little about dandelion knows that it has the functions of clearing away heat and toxic materials, nourishing and protecting the liver. For people who are usually full of liver fire, properly soaking dandelion in water can achieve the purpose of eliminating liver fire. Drinking dandelion in water every day can also prevent some liver diseases and promote the regeneration of liver cells.

Although dandelion is a common Chinese herbal medicine, it also has the function of dietotherapy. Generally speaking, soaking dandelion in water can play a certain role in health preservation, but if you soak dandelion in water for a long time, there may be three effects.

1. Risk of lowering blood pressure.

Blood pressure is like a person's heartbeat. Too high or too low is not good for health. Stable and normal blood pressure is good for human health. If you soak dandelion in water for a long time, there is a risk of lowering blood pressure.

2. Risk of injury to the spleen and stomach

Dandelion is cold. If it is soaked in water for a long time, it may cause damage to the spleen and stomach, leaving the spleen and stomach in a state of sweating. The physical symptoms may include diarrhea, vomiting and nausea. If your spleen and stomach are weak, and you soak dandelion in water for a long time, it will aggravate the weakness of your spleen and stomach.

3. There is a risk of allergic reaction.

Speaking of allergies, don't think that only pollen can make people allergic. In fact, many people are allergic to many things, just like some people are naturally allergic to dandelions. If such people soak dandelions in water, it can only do more harm than good, not wise.

Therefore, no matter how good dandelion is, only the right people can use it in the right way under the right conditions can it give people the best benefits. It is better to be cautious about the three adverse effects of soaking dandelion in water for a long time.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of drinking dandelion water?

Dandelion is a bitter and cold plant, which mainly belongs to the liver and stomach meridian, so soaking dandelion in water can clear the liver fire.

What are the benefits of drinking dandelion water?

(1) Reducing Liver Fire

For people with strong liver fire, they are usually irritable, prone to fever, insomnia and difficulty falling asleep, so people with strong liver fire can drink dandelion tea, which has a good effect of reducing liver fire and can stop when the liver fire dissipates.

(2) Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory

Dandelion also has a certain preventive and therapeutic effect on female mastitis and ovarian cyst. Dandelion can clear away heat and toxic materials, eliminate carbuncle and disperse nodules. It is a commonly used Chinese medicine for treating breast carbuncle, lung carbuncle and furuncle. Therefore, it is effective to treat mastitis with dandelion. Women with mastitis can directly boil water with dandelion and eat it with dipping sauce, which can play an anti-inflammatory role.

What are the disadvantages of drinking dandelion water?

Medicine is only useful if it is symptomatic, so there is no harm in dandelion tea itself, and only those who are not suitable for it will have some disadvantages.

Dandelion has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, promoting diuresis and resolving hard mass, and can be used for various inflammations, such as acute conjunctivitis, common cold and fever, acute tonsillitis, acute bronchitis, gastritis, hepatitis, cholecystitis and urinary tract infection.

However, people with cold nature and deficiency of spleen and cold should not use it for a long time. It is easy to hurt the yang.

Although some people use dandelion root to treat gastritis, they need to combine their own conditions according to their symptoms, which is not suitable for those with cold stomach. If the stomach is hot, you can still try it.

I have answered many times about the benefits and taboos of drinking dandelion. Please go to the front and read it!

This problem is actually very popular now, and everyone is discussing this topic. Now, many people also recognize dandelion, and dandelion soaking in water has basically become a common topic. At present, dandelion roots are generally used to soak in water. Dandelion roots are homologous to medicine and food, and belong to the vegetable department in Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica, which can be eaten for a long time. But this is only for ordinary people, so there are still some people, that is, people with cold constitution. If these people drink dandelion roots to soak in water, it is equivalent to disadvantages. Although dandelion is homologous to medicine and food, its property is slightly cold, which is not suitable for people with cold constitution. If this group of people drink normal dandelion roots in water, they will have diarrhea or cough. So how can we get rid of the coldness of dandelion roots now?

Xinhui orange peel, which we often say, has the effects of relieving cough and resolving phlegm, nourishing stomach and strengthening spleen. It is one of the three treasures in Guangdong, and can be as famous as the people in Northeast China. It has the saying that the person is a thousand years old and the tangerine peel is a hundred years old. It seems that this Xinhui orange peel really has a certain history. So what will be the matching effect of this Xinhui orange peel and dandelion root? Of course it's a surprise.

There are two kinds of citrus pu tea made from Xinhui orange peel and dandelion root, one is red orange dandelion root tea, and the other is green orange dandelion root tea. Their effects are different, mainly in cardiovascular and gastrointestinal aspects, so I won't say more about it here. Let's find out for ourselves.

The attribute of this Xinhui orange peel is lukewarm, combined with the lukewarm attribute of dandelion, it can neutralize the coldness of dandelion root, thus not only solving the coldness problem of dandelion root, but also making up for the efficacy that dandelion root does not have, so that people with cold constitution will not have diarrhea or cough when drinking this. Now it seems that this collocation is also more suitable for the public. Here, I have expressed my personal views on the advantages and disadvantages of soaking dandelion roots in water, hoping it will be useful.

Dandelion's use: clearing away heat and toxic materials, diuresis and resolving stagnation.

Treat acute mastitis, lymphadenitis, furuncle, sore, acute conjunctivitis, common cold and fever, acute tonsillitis, acute bronchitis, gastritis, hepatitis, cholecystitis and urinary tract infection.

The negative effects are: yang deficiency and external cold, and spleen and stomach weakness are prohibited.

1, people with yin deficiency cannot drink, and people with weak constitution cannot drink.

2, people with low blood pressure can't drink.

3, people with chronic enteritis can't drink.

Dandelion is the whole grass of Taraxacum mongolicum in Compositae. Its taste is bitter, sweet and cold, and it has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, clearing away heat and promoting diuresis, reducing swelling and resolving hard mass. Here are some prescriptions.

Treatment of hemorrhoids: fresh dandelion 1 00 ~ 200g (dry product 50 ~100g), decocted in water, daily1serving. Generally, taking 2~4 doses can stop bleeding, reduce swelling and relieve pain. It can also be combined with water decoction and fumigation, and the curative effect is better.

Treatment of hemorrhoids: fresh dandelion 1 00 ~ 200g (dry product 50 ~100g), decocted in water, daily1serving. Generally, taking 2~4 doses can stop bleeding, reduce swelling and relieve pain. It can also be combined with water decoction and fumigation, and the curative effect is better.

However, dandelion is cold, which is not suitable for people with deficiency and cold, and it is easy to cause physical discomfort.

Lowering blood pressure, dandelion is a natural antibiotic, which can play an anti-inflammatory and bactericidal role. Chewing dried dandelion leaves has a good effect on sore throat. I like to use dandelion for colds, and the effect is very good.
