Myth 1: Drinking medicinal wine helps you fall asleep?

The so-called medicinal wine is made by mixing medicinal materials in wine. Therefore, medicinal wine contains the dual functions of wine and medicine, and is mainly used as medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine generally divides medicinal liquor into two types: nourishing health-care medicinal liquor and therapeutic medicinal liquor. Therapeutic medicinal liquor is mainly used to treat rheumatic pain, traumatic injuries or physical nourishment.

Many people are accustomed to drinking medicinal wine before going to bed and believe that drinking before going to bed helps them sleep. However, Chinese medicine practitioners believe that this habit of drinking medicinal wine is not correct.

Drinking alcohol can indeed make people fall asleep faster, but the sleeping state after drinking is different from normal physiological sleep. Because you fall asleep after drinking alcohol, your brain activity does not really rest, so you do not really reach a resting state. Especially when you fall asleep after drinking medicinal wine, you may sometimes experience uncomfortable symptoms such as a heavy head and headache after waking up.

It is best to drink medicinal wine after meals, which plays a better role in the efficacy of the medicine.

Myth 2: Excessive consumption of medicinal liquor is good for health?

Some people believe too much in the therapeutic or health-care effects of medicinal wine, thinking that medicinal wine has health-preserving and nourishing effects, and drinking more will be better for health. In fact, this way of taking it is very wrong.

Medicinal liquor contains medicinal materials, but it is wrong to drink it in large quantities. The consequences are equivalent to taking an overdose of medicine and will also affect your health. The best dosage of medicinal wine is about one tablespoon, approximately 10CC. Too much is as bad as too little, so it is best not to drink excessively.

Myth 3: Drinking medicinal wine without considering your physical condition?

Nourishing health-care liquors are generally used for qi and blood deficiency, liver and kidney yin deficiency, spleen weakness, neurasthenia, etc. However, some people blindly drink liquor without understanding their own physical condition and drink any kind of liquor.

Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes syndrome differentiation and treatment. Not every kind of medicinal liquor is suitable for everyone, and not everyone is suitable for taking medicinal liquor. Doctor Chen reminds that the choice of medicinal wine should be based on one's own physical condition. It is best to consult a doctor in advance and understand one's own physical condition first. Check whether you are suffering from yin deficiency and blood deficiency, or yang deficiency and qi deficiency, etc., and choose medicinal wine carefully and drink it according to the symptoms to achieve the effect of adjusting yin and yang, qi and blood.

In addition, some men believe that drinking medicinal wine can have an aphrodisiac effect, but the consequences of taking it blindly may not be beneficial, but may make the condition worse. Therefore, men who want to enhance their sexual performance should also seek the advice and treatment of their doctors before taking medicinal liquor.

Don’t treat medicinal liquor as a panacea. “All medicines are poisonous to some extent”, and medicinal liquor is no exception. At the same time, medicinal wine is made by soaking in wine after all, so people who have taboos on alcohol should not take medicinal wine. Dr. Chen Mei'e reminds patients with hypertension and various cancers not to drink medicinal liquor. Hypertensive patients may be at risk of stroke after drinking it. Cancer patients drinking medicinal liquor will promote the spread of cancer cells and aggravate their condition.
