      Precautions for drinking traditional Chinese medicine health tea

      If the tea is cooked improperly, it is likely to turn from "curing" to "causing", so the method is particularly important.

      1. It is best not to use metal for sencha tea utensils and tea serving utensils, especially iron and copper, to avoid chemical reactions, not only affecting the curative effect, but also causing unnecessary trouble.

      2. It is best to pay attention to the time when drinking. For example, tea that calms the nerves must be taken before going to bed, while tea containing heat-clearing drugs is best taken after meals, because drugs with a cold nature can easily irritate the gastrointestinal tract.

      3. When the medicine used is a tonic medicine, do not drink too strong tea at the same time.

      4. When taking tea, avoid all raw, cold, oily and greasy foods to avoid irritating the gastrointestinal tract and affecting the absorption of the medicine.

      5. A large dosage of medicine does not mean that the medicine is effective. Fresh medicine contains more water, so the dosage can be slightly larger. Dried Chinese medicine has exhausted its moisture, so the dosage should be appropriately reduced; people with strong physiques can use slightly larger dosages, while the opposite is true for weak physiques.
