Winter tonic taboo
Never eat blindly.
Some people with weak constitution and arthritis are good at eating more dog meat in severe winter. But it is not advisable to eat dog meat blindly, so as not to get rabies after eating rabies meat. Do not drink tea after eating dog meat. This is because tannic acid in tea combines with protein in dog meat to produce a substance. This substance has a certain astringent effect, which can weaken intestinal peristalsis and reduce the moisture in the stool. Therefore, toxic substances and carcinogens in the stool will be easily absorbed by the human body because they stay in the intestine for too long.
Second, avoid the distinction between reality and reality.
The treatment principle of TCM is "tonifying deficiency". Deficiency is tonic, and deficiency is normal diet. At the same time, it is necessary to distinguish the performance and scope of application of supplements, and whether they are suitable for themselves. Experts believe that the main function of tonic is to "supplement deficiency and benefit loss". Deficiency is divided into four types: qi deficiency, blood deficiency, yin deficiency and yang deficiency, and each has its own tonic methods.

Blood deficiency should be supplemented with blood. This disease can be treated with Buxue Lu, Shiquan Dabu Pill, Guipi Pill, Angelica sinensis, Ejiao and longan pulp.
3, yin deficiency, common symptoms are hot flashes, night sweats, heartburn, dry mouth and throat, dry cough with little phlegm, dry eyes, red tongue with little fur. Yin deficiency should nourish yin, and drugs such as Dabuyin Pill, Shenqi Royal Jelly, Liuwei Dihuang Pill, Tremella, Carapax Trionycis, Ophiopogon japonicus, Adenophora adenophora, and black sesame can be selected for this disease.

Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae, Fructus Amomi, Radix Aucklandiae, Massa Medicata Fermentata, and Fructus oryzae should be added.
Tonifying and advocating three taboos
Not everyone can drink chicken soup. Chicken soup (including stewed chicken soup and chicken soup cooked with herbs) is rich in nutrition. The nutrients in chicken soup are a small amount of water-soluble small molecules dissolved from chicken oil, chicken skin and chicken bones, and its protein is only about 7% of that of chicken. Most of the chicken oil in the soup belongs to saturated fatty acids. Because of the unique nutrition and stimulating effect of chicken soup, the following patients should not drink chicken soup:
Cholecystitis and gallstones often occur in patients with biliary tract diseases, so it is not advisable to drink more chicken soup. Because the digestion of fat in chicken soup needs bile to participate, drinking chicken soup will stimulate gallbladder contraction and easily cause cholecystitis. People with hyperacidity should not drink chicken soup because chicken soup can stimulate the secretion of gastric acid. Patients with gastric ulcer, hyperacidity or gastrorrhagia generally should not drink chicken soup.
People with renal insufficiency should not drink chicken soup because it contains some small molecules from protein. Patients with acute nephritis, acute and chronic renal insufficiency or uremia, because their liver and kidney can't deal with protein decomposition in time, drinking too much chicken soup will cause hyperandrogenism and aggravate their condition.
Four bogey tonics
Taking tonic when you are not sick will not only increase your expenses, but also harm your health. For example, excessive use of cod liver oil can lead to poisoning, and long-term use of glucose can lead to obesity. In addition, the more tonic is not the better, and taking any tonic in excess is harmful.
