People who take various drugs. The detoxification of mung bean comes from the combination of mung bean protein and other components with organophosphorus and heavy metals to form precipitation. However, these detoxification components will also decompose the efficacy and affect the treatment.

I often hear people say, "You can't eat mung beans when you eat Chinese medicine, so as to avoid the antidote." "Compendium of Materia Medica" says: "Mung bean tastes sweet and cold, and it is nontoxic ... to cure weeds, horses, cattle and stones." Folk boiled mung bean soup is also often used as one of the first-aid measures for drug poisoning. Therefore, the saying that mung beans and traditional Chinese medicine cannot be eaten together has been passed down.

Mung bean itself is a traditional Chinese medicine, which can clear away heat and detoxify. If you suffer from exogenous wind-heat, carbuncle swelling, erysipelas, invasion of summer evil and other fever, you can take mung bean soup as usual when taking Chinese medicine, which plays a complementary role. If you suffer from gastrointestinal weakness, limb weakness, chills, cold pain in your waist and legs, diarrhea and other diseases, you should fast mung beans. Otherwise, it will not only reduce the efficacy of the drug, but also aggravate the condition. It can be seen that whether you can eat mung beans by taking Chinese medicine cannot be generalized, and it should be judged according to the cold and heat deficiency of your disease and the taste of the Chinese medicine you take.
