Can children eat antelope horns?

As we all know, in addition to pregnant women, children's diet should also be taken very seriously. Because for children, diet is the most important thing in their growth. Having a good eating habit is very helpful for their height and health. Therefore, adults should pay more attention to their diet when taking care of children.

What kind of food is best for children? What kind of food is harmful to children? These are issues that parents should pay attention to. Just like the question of whether antelope horns are suitable for children, there is a certain scientific explanation. Antelope horns have a very important role in medicinal value.

1. Calming the liver and extinguishing wind: Antelope horn reduces coldness and enters the liver, heart, and lung meridians. It mainly relieves liver fire and clears the heart and lungs. The liver governs wind, opens the eyes and stores blood, so it is an important medicine for calming the liver and extinguishing wind. It can be used for hyperactivity of liver yang, dizziness, internal liver wind movement, epilepsy, convulsions and other diseases.

2. Clearing away heat and calming the nerves: This syndrome is often seen after febrile diseases, when the pathogenic heat is raging. For patients with high fever, restlessness, coma, delirium, convulsions, scorched lips, and convulsions caused by excessive heat in children, this product can be used first to clear away heat, detoxify, calm the nerves, and calm the nerves.

3. Cooling blood and detoxifying: This syndrome is often seen in febrile diseases, where heat enters the blood and causes excessive heat and blood movement. Symptoms include: high fever, restlessness, or even coma and delirium, purple-black macules or vomiting, bleeding, and blood in the stool, and a deep crimson tongue. This product can be the first choice for clearing heat, cooling blood, detoxifying, and removing macules.

"New Materia Medica": "Removes blood stasis from sores, generates new blood, reduces internal heat and qi, quenches thirst and relieves restlessness."

4. Blood dispersing and detoxification: It is mostly used for those with carbuncle, ulcer, blood heat and toxicity. It may be caused by the six external pathogens, or excessive consumption of rich and greasy food, which causes internal dampness, heat and fire toxicity, causing the accumulation of toxic evils, resulting in disharmony between the Ying and Wei, and stagnation of Qi and blood in the meridians. Symptoms include: body heat and cold, local redness, swelling and pain at the carbuncle, thirst for cold drinks, yellow and red urine, constipation, thick yellow pus and blood after ulceration, red tongue with yellow fur, and rapid pulse. This product can be used to clear heat, cool blood and detoxify.

5. Identification and application: Antelope horn and Semen Cassiae are both antiseptic drugs, both of which can calm the liver and suppress yang, calm the nerves and extinguish wind, and improve eyesight. Semen Cassiae is not as effective as antelope horn in purging liver fire, but it can replenish liver yin, clear lung heat, and treat bone steaming and fatigue fever. Antelope horn mainly purges liver fire, clears the heart and lungs, disperses blood and detoxifies, and can treat heat toxins, blood stasis, spots, carbuncles, and sores.

Antelope horns, whether ground into powder or taken orally, have good therapeutic effects in medicine. Antelope horns can be used to treat many types of diseases, and experiments have shown that antelope horns are very low in toxicity and suitable for consumption by all people. Children can also eat antelope horns if they need them.
