What are the taboos of taking kidney-tonifying Chinese medicine?

Traditional Chinese medicine is the essence of our ancient culture. Unlike Western treatment methods, it focuses on treating the internal environment, and Chinese medicine is very effective in nourishing the kidneys. Therefore, more and more people now choose to restore their health by taking Chinese medicine. However, taking Chinese medicine is not just about drinking it. Instead, you should pay attention to some taboos in your daily life so that you can better promote your body's recovery. Here I will introduce to you some of the taboos of taking kidney-tonifying Chinese medicine.

First: Do not smoke or drink during the period of taking the medicine

Traditional Chinese medicine tells us that if you want to achieve the best results, it is best not to smoke or drink while taking Chinese medicine to nourish the kidneys. This is because spirits contain a large amount of methanol, and cigarettes contain nicotine. These substances will cause certain damage to various organs of the body. If we do not change this bad lifestyle habit when we have kidney deficiency, then drinking Chinese medicine will not have any effect, which is equivalent to not drinking it, or the effect will be greatly reduced and it will easily harm our health.

Second: Do not drink some strong stimulating beverages

There are many highly stimulating beverages in our daily lives, such as coffee and cola. Since cola and coffee contain a certain amount of caffeine, this substance will damage the body's organs and reduce the efficacy of drugs after entering the body, which is very harmful to the body.

Third: Drug Abuse

In daily life, you must take kidney-tonifying Chinese medicine under the guidance of a professional doctor and never take it at will. And before taking Chinese medicine, you must do a good job of dialectical work, so that it can be targeted and the body can recover quickly. If you take medicine indiscriminately and fail to take good care of your body, it will harm your health instead.

Fourth: Take some rest

After taking kidney-tonifying Chinese medicine, you must pay attention to rest. Never stay up late or get overly excited or angry, etc. These emotions and lifestyles are not good for your health. Getting enough sleep is one of the important guarantees for the body to recover its vitality and the kidneys to restore their kidney energy. Therefore, no matter how busy your daily work is, you must ensure that you have enough sleep and rest time. If you want your body to recover faster, you can also take some recipes that have the effect of warming and nourishing the kidneys, which will be more effective.

Fifth: Avoid taking irritating foods

The contraindications of taking kidney-tonifying Chinese medicine should also be paid attention to in terms of daily diet. Eat less irritating foods, such as chili peppers, garlic, ginger, etc. These foods are quite harmful to the stomach and intestines. Especially for some patients with weak gastrointestinal function, they should eat less, which is not conducive to gastrointestinal absorption, thus affecting the body's absorption of the medicinal effects of Chinese medicine. However, you can also take some foods that have kidney-protecting effects in your life, such as leeks, ginseng and pigeons, which are all good choices.

Sixth: Taking kidney-tonifying Chinese medicine must be decided according to the specific physical condition

If you are sick or have a cold, it is recommended not to take Chinese medicine with kidney-tonifying effects. Experts tell us that various types of medicines have certain counteracting effects on each other. If the patient's current physical condition is a cold, then the body's resistance will become worse. At this time, if some Chinese herbal medicines with tonic effects are taken, then it will not be of any benefit. In addition, if you suffer from other types of diseases, you must ask your doctor for advice in advance before taking kidney-tonifying Chinese medicine to see if you need to stop taking the kidney-tonifying Chinese medicine. Don't do it recklessly on your own.

Introduced above are some of the contraindications of Chinese medicine for kidney tonification. I believe everyone has already understood them. I would also like to tell you that if you experience frequent urination, pale tongue coating, physical fatigue, night sweats, pale complexion, etc., then it is very likely that you have kidney deficiency. You must seek treatment immediately to avoid missing the opportunity for treatment.
