Stewing herbs as long as the time, fire is appropriate, the nutrients are indeed in the soup, if some of the medicinal herbs, generally recommended that the herbs are eaten, such as goji berries, Chinese yam, ginseng, etc.; but there is also a portion of the herbs do not have the means to eat down, and do not hard to eat, not well handled will damage the digestive tract.

The vast majority of medicinal substances are secondary metabolites, generally speaking, are cellular inclusions, and most of them are of low molecular weight, and the only question is how water-soluble it is, although saponin-like components (e.g., licorice saponins) can increase the solubility of non-water-soluble substances in water.

Chinese medicine ingredients that are actually more problematic for human absorption. As you can see, the process of preparation of traditional Chinese medicine, that stuff is also a physical job, but also with the help of a lot of tools, cut, cut, grind.

In addition, many herbs in Chinese medicine have toxic side effects, some toxicity is not small. Some of the toxicity is very small, the efficacy is good, do have to eat directly, and bubble water. But the need to cook, the process of cooking is also the process of nutrient loss and deterioration, is not also the role of regulating the efficacy of the medicine?
