Don't drink on an empty stomach. Mung bean soup is cold, and drinking it on an empty stomach is not good for the stomach.

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.

Because the content of protein in mung bean is more than that in chicken, the macromolecular protein needs to be converted into small peptides and amino acids under the action of enzymes before it can be absorbed by human body. Such people have poor gastrointestinal digestive function and are prone to diarrhea due to indigestion.

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.
