From ancient times to the present, coix seed has been a panacea that can prolong life. It can benefit the spleen and stomach, nourish yin and blood, and whiten and moisturize the skin. It doesn't matter how much a pound of coix seed costs. Its functions and effects cannot be measured by price, but there are many taboos when taking it normally. If you want to fully understand the functions of Poria cocos and know what its taboos are, you can read my detailed introduction to it below. 1. Efficacy and function of Poria cocos 1. Relieve cough and reduce phlegm Relieving cough and reducing phlegm is one of the main functions of coix seed, because from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, damp phlegm enters the meridians, and coix seed can transform water and benefit the stomach and intestines after being used as medicine, and can dilute phlegm and accelerate the excretion of phlegm. Usually taking it together with Chinese herbal medicines such as Poria cocos and Pinellia can make its effect of relieving cough and reducing phlegm even better. 2. Replenish Qi and blood and strengthen the spleen and stomach Coix seed is also a traditional Chinese medicine that can replenish qi and blood and strengthen the spleen. This kind of traditional Chinese medicine can alleviate human spleen deficiency diarrhea, and can also aromaticize and eliminate dampness. When people usually have spleen deficiency and digestion disorders, taking coix seed immediately can have a significant regulating effect. In addition, eating more coix seed on a regular basis can also prevent spleen deficiency and reduce the occurrence of physical weakness symptoms in humans. 3. Prevent cancer Preventing cancer is also the main function of coix seed. This kind of Chinese herbal medicine not only contains a variety of natural anti-cancer ingredients, it also contains some medicinal substances that can kill tumor cells. We can usually use it for cancer prevention, but also for cancer treatment. It has very obvious therapeutic and preventive effects on human common liver cancer, tongue cancer and breast cancer. 4. Improve the body's ability to resist disease Chinese medicinal materials such as coix seed can also promote the regeneration of immune cells and accelerate the regeneration of T cells. It has a significant buffering effect on the human immune system, can enhance the body's disease resistance and prevent the occurrence of various diseases. 2. Taboos of Coix Seed Coix seed has many benefits to the human body, but it has few taboos when taking it. Only those people with yin deficiency, hyperactivity of fire, dry mouth and dry throat should not take it. In addition, the elderly with kidney deficiency and excessive urination should also use less coix seed. These are common taboos when we take coix seed. |
