Many people don’t know what Fupian is, so what we are going to learn about today is Fupian, and we will also compare the differences between various types of Fupian. The taste of aconite root is spicy, it is a hot substance and it is harmful. It has the effects of clearing and nourishing the spleen and kidney, dispelling cold and relieving pain; it is very pungent and hot, and it can promote yang and expel cold. If you have a friend with poor spleen and kidney, you might as well try aconite. Now let’s take a look at the side effects of aconite.

What are the side effects of Fupian?

White aconite root is made by peeling the skin of the herb, cutting it into slices, rinsing it in cold water until the water turns milky white, then steaming and drying it, or fumigating it with sulfur. It is a strong medicine for dampness and heat, which has the effects of restoring yang and rescuing adverse conditions, warming the kidney and tonifying kidney yang, dispelling cold and relieving pain. It is used for symptoms such as spleen and kidney deficiency, fear of cold and cold limbs, wind-cold and dampness arthritis.

And you need to use the medicine according to your own situation and use it in moderation. Too much of anything will backfire, because Lute Technology contains the toxic ingredient aconite, which mainly has an irritating effect on the heart, sympathetic nerves, and nerve endings. Symptoms of poisoning include numbness of the tongue, numbness of the limbs, a feeling of crawling, dizziness, decreased vision, nausea, vomiting, etc., which can be serious and even life-threatening.

In general, Lu Te Technology has the functions of restoring Qi and blood, circulating the twelve meridians, and recovering the lost Yuan Yang (Kidney Qi). Because Lu Te technology is highly toxic, it is often processed as a medicine. Among them, the most common one is the roasted aconite, which has sufficient efficacy and quick effect; the light aconite has a milder effect; the black aconite has similar efficacy to the roasted aconite; the white aconite is slightly less effective than the above categories.

Aconite is made of 20% Lute Technology. Lute Technology and Aconitum are the same substance, but because of the different production methods, the names and functions are different. It should be noted that raw aconite and raw monkshood are often poisonous, so we must be cautious when choosing and taking medicines, and we must choose the best medicine for ourselves under the guidance of a doctor.

How long does it take to boil aconite to avoid poisoning?

Aconite root is a very good Chinese medicinal material, but it must be cooked for a long time when taken, for example at least half an hour to an hour, because it may cause some toxic side effects if it is cooked for less than half an hour, causing dizziness, nausea, shortness of breath, including arrhythmia, and even death in severe cases.

Therefore, when taking aconite, you must follow the doctor's instructions and try to boil it for as long as possible to be safer.
