Contraindications of Yuling Paste

I believe that most women are familiar with Yuling Paste. Everyone also has a certain understanding of the effects and functions of Yuling Paste. The most important effect is to nourish blood and replenish qi. If a person has good qi and blood, then diseases will naturally stay away from us. However, is Yuling Paste, such a good thing, suitable for everyone to consume? In fact, nothing can be perfect, and the same goes for Yuling Paste. It is not suitable for everyone.

1. Yuling Paste

Yuling Paste is also known as Daishen Paste. Peel the longan and put it in a bamboo tube-shaped porcelain bowl. Add one ounce of flesh to each longan and one qian of white sugar. If you have a fiery constitution, add American ginseng slices equal to the amount of sugar. Cover the rim of the bowl with a layer of silk cotton and steam it in the rice cooker every day, until it is steamed a hundred times. For those who are frail, old and weak, and have no other symptoms of phlegm and fire, but have loose stools, take one spoonful of this herb with boiled water. It will greatly replenish qi and blood, and is more effective than ginseng and astragalus. It is especially effective for women taking it before giving birth.

2. Taboos of Yuling Paste

Pregnant women and children should not consume it. It is not suitable for people with excessive phlegm and fire or accumulation of dampness and heat.

This prescription is a tonic that combines sweet and warm properties with sweet and cold properties. The longan in the prescription is sweet and warm in nature, and can benefit the heart and spleen, replenish qi and blood, calm the mind and improve intelligence. It is mainly used to treat symptoms such as damage to the heart and spleen due to overwork, insufficient qi and blood, palpitations and insomnia, fatigue, sallow complexion, and poor appetite. American ginseng is sweet and cold in nature, and has the functions of nourishing qi and yin, promoting fluid production and quenching thirst. It mainly contains ginsenosides, so it has a tonic effect like ginseng. "Medical Records of Combining Chinese and Western Medicine" says: "American ginseng is cool and nourishing in nature. Anyone who wants to use ginseng but cannot tolerate its warming and nourishing effect can use this instead." The combination of longan meat and American ginseng is warm but not dry, cool but not cold, and is a top-quality nourishing tonic that can be used as both medicine and food.

3. Effects of Yuling Paste

(1) Improve sleep quality

Why can taking "Yuling Paste" improve sleep? The main reason is that longan meat can nourish blood and soothe the mind. If we are anemic, the blood will not be able to nourish the heart, resulting in sleep disorders. Longan meat can nourish the heart blood and soothe the mind, which can naturally make people sleep well.

(2) Good complexion and full of energy

Longan meat has the effect of nourishing the spleen, while American ginseng nourishes qi, so this dietary therapy has a relatively obvious effect of increasing positive energy.

(3) Body pain disappears

Premenstrual headache is a very stubborn disease that many women suffer from and is indeed difficult to treat. Feedback from netizens suggests that if we start with nourishing the blood and take a different approach, we may get better results. Because the arrival of menstruation will cause the blood in the body to be in a different state than usual, people with blood deficiency will have various diseases. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the liver stores blood. If the liver blood is sufficient and the liver meridian is nourished, then these problems will be solved.

(4) Improve constipation

The reason why blood deficiency leads to constipation is insufficient Qi and blood in the body. The ancients described it like this: Just like there is no water in the river, the boat cannot move, so it is necessary to nourish the blood and fill the water in the river so that the boat can move. The ancients called this method "increasing fluid to move the boat forward." Using "Yuling Paste" to nourish the blood can officially achieve this effect.
