Xueyan contains a lot of trace elements, which is easy to cause allergies. Especially allergic people, it is not recommended to eat snow swallow. If you must eat, pay attention to whether there is discomfort when eating.
Second, patients with cold and fever: When the human body has a cold or fever, the functions of various organs of the body are reduced, especially the digestive and absorption functions. If you take Xueyan at this time, it will aggravate the stomach discomfort. Moreover, the nutrients of Xueyan cannot be completely absorbed by the body, resulting in waste. It is best to take it after you get well, so as to enhance your resistance.

Replenishing the snow weir may cause organ damage due to overnutrition. Therefore, although babies can digest and absorb limited nutrition by eating snow swallow, it increases the burden on the stomach, which is not worth the loss.
