What side effects do you think eating too many supplements will have?

Symptoms of eating too many supplements will generally vary depending on the supplements you eat. For example, people with yin deficiency need to eat nourishing yin. If they eat warm tonics such as angelica, ginseng, cordyceps sinensis and donkey-hide gelatin, they will get angry, their mouths will get angry and get hot.

Similarly, if people with yang deficiency suddenly take tonics, it is not conducive to the recovery of the disease, and there is a saying that tonic is enough, and there is no need to eat too much.

There is a common misunderstanding among ordinary people that tonics have been abused. Many people think that all the symptoms of the body are caused by physical weakness, so we must take tonic and blindly use tonic. You can see some clues by looking at the tonic business.

Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to syndrome differentiation and treatment, not only the methods and skills of treating diseases, but also some methods to teach us to be human and do things, and some thinking concepts to look at everything in the world. Just like Marx said, everything should be viewed in two, and everything has two sides.

Of course, people who are physically weak need tonic medicine, but people who are not physically weak are definitely not suitable. For example, Chinese medicine says that "excessive anger leads to fire." When a person abuses tonics such as ginseng and astragalus, his anger will turn into fire, although some people will have symptoms such as sore throat, swollen gums, flushed eyes, dizziness, upset and insomnia after using these tonics.

Abuse of tonics not only refers to these Chinese herbal medicines for invigorating qi, but also includes other Chinese herbal medicines such as Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, Colla Corii Asini, Ophiopogon japonicus and Dendrobium nobile. Although they are all very useful Chinese herbal medicines, some people are not suitable for them, and of course there will be various uncomfortable symptoms, such as Ejiao, the birthplace of blood, but it is greasy. If the stomach is not good, people with heavy moisture will have symptoms such as bloating and indigestion, which is an adverse reaction caused by drugs. For example, Dendrobium japonicum mentioned above seems to be a normal and safe tonic, but the medicine has advantages and disadvantages. Ophiopogon japonicus Dendrobium can nourish yin and moisten dryness, but it is cold. Poor spleen and stomach function, weak yang, if misused, will lead to more obvious loss of yang in the body, not worth the loss.
