Who is not suitable for using Huajuhong?

If Huajuhong is used correctly, it can effectively help us treat colds, coughs, sore throats, or bronchitis caused by colds. It can also be directly brewed with boiling water and is relatively convenient and simple to consume. However, not everyone is suitable for using Huajuhong. For example, those who cough up yellow or white sputum are not suitable for taking the medicine. These taboos should be observed.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the cultivation of Huajuhong was particularly popular. During its century-long history of medicinal use, it was once listed as a royal medicine for the imperial court, and had a highly praised therapeutic effect on diseases such as cough and sputum. However, are there any taboos in eating tangerine peel? What is the best way to eat it? Although tangerine peel has a unique therapeutic effect in treating lung heat cough, phlegm and heavy dampness, it is not suitable for long-term use by patients with cough. This is because patients with long-term cough have greatly damaged their vitality and essence, and often have symptoms of qi deficiency. At this time, the body is already cold, and taking tangerine peel to clear lung heat is like adding insult to injury. In addition, people with a cold constitution and symptoms of yang deficiency (easy diarrhea, cold hands and feet) are not suitable for taking it. Patients with hypertension and hyperlipidemia should strictly follow the guidance of professional doctors when taking tangerine peel. Generally speaking, tangerine peel should not be taken at the same time as lipid-lowering drugs, as they will produce a counteracting effect.

When patients with hyperlipidemia have symptoms of cough with excessive sputum, they can choose some cough syrups or medicines containing Fritillaria cirrhosa. The taste of tangerine peel is slightly sweet and sour, and it is also very stimulating to the taste buds. Some people prefer the taste of tangerine peel, so they use tangerine peel as a daily snack, often brew tangerine peel tea, or use tangerine peel with added honey and salt as a delicious snack. Doctors do not recommend doing this. Although tangerine peel is a traditional Chinese medicinal material that can be used as food and medicine and is non-toxic and harmless, it is still poisonous to some extent. Long-term consumption will have some adverse effects on the body. Although Tangerine Peel is mainly used to treat cough with excessive phlegm, it is not suitable for all patients with phlegm. It is not suitable for those who cough up yellow or white phlegm.

Moreover, tangerine peel is warm in nature and has a good therapeutic effect on coughs, sore throats, bronchitis, etc. caused by colds caused by wind and cold. However, it is not suitable for viral colds caused by wind and heat, and it is also not suitable for patients with hot coughs. There are many ways to eat tangerine peel, and patients need to choose according to their own situation. If it is for daily health care, just brew it directly with boiling water.

After understanding the contraindications of Huajuhong and the people who are not suitable for it, I hope everyone can pay attention to abide by these principles. In fact, it is not just Huajuhong, but any medicine can only exert its effect if it is used correctly. Otherwise, it will only cause more adverse effects or make the condition more serious.
