1, too hot to eat.
Winter is a bug, summer is grass, and Cordyceps sinensis is a treasure. As a precious medicinal material, Cordyceps sinensis is favored by many people. However, it is not suitable for all people, and it is best not to take it for people with hot constitution.
Cordyceps is sweet and warm in nature, and enters the lung and kidney meridians. Its effects are tonifying lung and kidney, resolving phlegm and relieving asthma, and can be used to treat chronic cough, asthenia and asthma, impotence, soreness of waist and knees and other diseases. It also plays a very good role in health care, which is conducive to anti-fatigue, delaying aging and strengthening the body. It is a good tonic for the elderly and those who are weak after illness and postpartum.
However, people's constitutions are divided into cold and heat. People with a hot constitution have a sense of heat, are afraid of heat, have a red face, are prone to thirst and dry tongue, like to drink cold drinks, have Huang Chi urine but little urine, and have dry or secret stools. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that yang is hot and yin is cold. Yang in the body with a warm constitution is flourishing, while Cordyceps is sweet and warm. If you blindly supplement Cordyceps to treat heat with warmth, it will easily help to cause febrile diseases and may cause symptoms of getting angry.
It should also be noted that the efficacy of Cordyceps in resolving phlegm and relieving cough is mainly used for cough caused by kidney deficiency and lung deficiency, while cough caused by cold is true and evil. Using Cordyceps can not only relieve cough, but will aggravate cough and affect the curative effect of other antitussive drugs. At the same time, the beneficial kidney function of Cordyceps sinensis is limited to slight renal dysfunction, not serious kidney damage. Therefore, before taking Cordyceps sinensis, it is best to use it according to syndrome differentiation and under the guidance of Chinese medicine practitioners or pharmacists.
