Traditional Chinese medicine says: This medicine is indispensable for men throughout their lives

Because men have to bear more pressure from work and life, they are more likely to have certain physical problems, so daily health care is particularly important. Some men like to boil medicine to regulate their bodies; while others like to drink herbal tea or medicinal wine to achieve the effect of strengthening their bodies. However, do you know which Chinese medicines are the most indispensable for men in their lives? Let's take a look at them together:

Use Poria cocos and Imperata root to remove dampness and heat in adolescence

A survey shows that 98% of men will suffer from acne during adolescence. At this time, the level of androgen secretion in men's bodies increases, sebum secretion becomes active, and coupled with the high mental stress during their school years, they are prone to irregular lifestyles. Therefore, the most common problems among adolescent males are acne and getting irritated.

Acne is mostly caused by excessive heat in the lung meridian, or damp heat in the spleen and stomach. People in this age group may wish to take two Chinese medicines, Poria cocos and Imperata cylindrica. Poria has a mild nature and can play a diuretic, dehumidifying, and spleen-strengthening role without hurting the body's vital energy. You can soak 10 grams of it in water and drink it every day, or boil it in water with Poria cocos, Alisma orientalis, etc. Imperata root can clear heat from the lungs and stomach, and has the effects of cooling blood, clearing heat and promoting body fluid. It is recommended to soak it in water and drink it directly.

For middle-aged detoxification, use Pueraria root and white peony root

Middle-aged men aged 30-55 are under great pressure from work and life, are busy with social events, often stay up late and drink. If you do not pay attention to your health, it is easy to develop high blood pressure, high blood lipids, high blood sugar and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

People in this age group may wish to take some Pueraria root, which has detoxifying effects. According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", Pueraria root is cool in nature, flat in temperament, sweet in taste, and has the effects of clearing heat, reducing fire, and detoxifying.

Modern medical research also shows that puerarin, an isoflavone compound in Pueraria root, has certain therapeutic effects on hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. It can be decocted into a soup or mashed into juice and added to rice soup for consumption.

In addition, white peony root has the effect of soothing the liver. People who drink frequently can choose this Chinese medicine to soak in water and drink it, which can harmonize qi and blood and allow yang energy to be released.
