What happens if you eat too much Isatis root?

I believe that in daily life, many friends will experience symptoms of red, swollen and painful eyes due to eating some foods that are easy to cause inflammation. In more serious cases, there will also be symptoms of swollen and painful gums and bleeding teeth. In fact, these are all because they have heat in their bodies, so many friends will eat isatis root to achieve the effect of clearing heat. So what will happen if you eat too much Isatis root? In the following time, please let me find out with you.

The isatis root and isatis indigotica granules are both very bitter and cold medicines. Bitter and cold foods can damage the stomach, and taking too much will inevitably damage the stomach qi. Long-term and large-dose use of Isatis root granules may also cause cumulative poisoning. In addition, a small number of people will have an allergic reaction to Isatis root, which may manifest as dizziness, shortness of breath, vomiting, etc. In severe cases, they may even suffer anaphylactic shock due to a drop in blood pressure, which can be life-threatening if not promptly treated.

If it is Isatis Root Granules, if the overdose is not too much, it should not be a big problem. If it is Chinese herbal medicine slices, if the overdose is large, you should pay attention to observation. This medicine is cold in nature and can easily damage the spleen and stomach. Therefore, if it is overdosed, it can cause abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, etc. At present, you only need to pay attention to observation and take symptomatic treatment. You should follow the guidance of clinical physicians. I wish you good health. The above is for reference only.

Absolutely harmful! Isatis root is the root of Isatis indigotica, a plant of the Cruciferae family, and Isatis tinctorius, a plant of the Acanthaceae family. It has the functions of cooling blood, detoxifying, reducing swelling and stopping bleeding. It is mainly used to treat influenza, epidemic meningitis, epidemic encephalitis B, pneumonia, hepatitis, mumps, erysipelas, etc., with good results. As one of the commonly used medicines for colds, some people think that Isatis root is a safe drug and will not cause adverse reactions after taking it. In fact, this understanding is incorrect. "All medicines are poisonous to some extent", and Isatis root is no exception, it also has certain toxic side effects and adverse reactions. Therefore, you must keep in mind the following 7 precautions when taking it: 1. Some people drink Isatis root powder as tea to prevent colds, or use Isatis root to treat colds, which is actually not scientific. Isatis root cannot prevent and treat all colds or infectious respiratory diseases, and is especially not suitable for wind-cold type colds, summer-heat and dampness type colds, qi deficiency colds, and yin deficiency colds. 2. If healthy people take too much Isatis root, it will damage the spleen and stomach. Long-term oral administration may cause loss of appetite, weight loss, fatigue, vomiting of clear saliva, diarrhea, abdominal pain, abdominal distension, etc. 3. People with weak constitution are usually afraid of cold, have indigestion and are prone to diarrhea. It is not suitable for them to use Isatis root granules to prevent colds, otherwise it will lead to symptoms such as chills, stomach pain, and loss of appetite. 4. Young children are weak. If they take too much bitter and cold ingredients such as Isatis Root and Isatis Indigotica Leaf, it will damage their stomach qi. They must not use adult doses, let alone take large doses for a long time.

I believe that through our understanding of the above, most of our friends have their own unique insights and more standard answers about what will happen if they eat too much Isatis root. Of course, I would like to remind everyone that for those friends who are weak and very afraid of cold, it is not advisable to eat too much Isatis root, because this can easily lead to excessive clearing of heat and symptoms of internal demand in the body.
