How much water should I drink in a day?

Shouwu is rich in nutrients. According to relevant materials, it contains carotene, vitamin B2, and vitamin C. There are also water, tapioca starch and glucose that the body cannot lack. Hearing this, many friends want to ask, how much Polygonum multiflorum can you drink in a day? You will know after reading this.

In clinical medicine, Shouwu is a yin-nourishing and blood-nourishing medicine. It can be used raw or processed. Processed Polygonum multiflorum has the effect of nourishing the essence and qi, while raw Polygonum multiflorum has the effects of removing toxins, stopping malaria and promoting digestion. The clinical application of Shouwu should be cautious. It is generally not recommended to take it with small amounts of water immediately, because there are some adverse reactions if Shouwu is used incorrectly:

1. If you encounter a person with loose stools or heavy phlegm, it is generally not suitable to use Shouwu;

2. Since Shouwu contains anthraquinone compounds and rhein, which can promote intestinal movement, excessive intake of Shouwu may cause diarrhea, abdominal pain, etc.;

3. Clinical medicine has reported that improper use of Polygonum multiflorum or long-term and excessive intake of Polygonum multiflorum can cause liver dysfunction.

Therefore, clinical medicine does not believe that Shouwu should be soaked in water and drunk immediately.

The effect of drinking Polygonum multiflorum in water

The old doctor told us that Shouwu is a very common Chinese herbal medicine. Its main functions are to moisten the intestines and promote bowel movements, disinfect, reduce swelling, replenish essence, darken hair, strengthen bones and tendons, and nourish the kidneys. Generally, we divide Polygonum multiflorum into two types, namely raw Polygonum multiflorum and processed Polygonum multiflorum. The main difference between the two is that processed Polygonum multiflorum is processed on the basis of raw Polygonum multiflorum.

The nutrients contained in Shouwu are very rich. For example, vitamin C, carotene and other nutrients that the human body lacks are all contained in large quantities in Shouwu. In addition, regular consumption of Shouwu can also replenish the glucose, water, and starch needed by the human body. Generally speaking, we usually use raw Polygonum multiflorum directly cut into slices as medicine, which has many benefits to the human body. In addition to the above effects, it also has the effect of treating urticaria and itching.

The actual effects are as follows:

First: Treat dry intestines and constipation

In daily life, if the human body has constipation caused by intestinal dryness, then drinking Polygonum multiflorum soaked in water can have a very good effect. Generally, the body can recover as soon as possible in about three to five days.

Second: Promote black and shiny hair

The old doctor told us that drinking Polygonum multiflorum soaked in water does have the effect of darkening hair, especially for the treatment of juvenile graying. If there is a problem of premature graying of hair in adolescents, you can take appropriate amount of Polygonum multiflorum and fresh Rehmannia glutinosa as a mixture and wash your hair every day, which has a very good effect.

Third: Reduce blood cell cholesterol

In addition, if the elderly take Polygonum multiflorum, or drink it in water, the greater effect is to reduce the body's blood cell cholesterol. This can effectively prevent the human body from atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease, and soy lecithin also has a certain preventive effect.

Fourth: Treating habitual constipation and hemorrhoids and blood in stool in the elderly

Modern science has also discovered that Polygonum multiflorum contains substances similar to anthraquinones, which have a certain laxative effect, and its effect is very similar to that of the laxative Coptis chinensis, but compared with Coptis chinensis, it is more mild. If the elderly suffer from chronic constipation, they can often take Polygonum multiflorum in water to effectively promote health. In addition, if the body has the problem of hemorrhoids and bloody stools, taking Shouwu also has a very good effect.
