Let's talk about the health things of Lichun
Fan Letter] Dear Doctor, Hello! I'm a big fan of yours and have been following your popular science articles. Recently, I discovered a traditional Chinese medicine product called "Cherry Longan Cream", which is advertised to have the effects of tonifying the liver, nourishing the heart, and benefiting the blood, and it also seems to have a good effect on symptoms such as palpitation and dizziness. I'm very interested in this cream, but as a casual consumer, I don't know much about its effectiveness and mechanism of action. Doctor, does cherry longan cream really have these effects? How does it work? Can you please give me an answer with your expertise?
Popular science answers] Dear fans, hello! Thank you very much for your trust and support. Regarding the "cherry longan ointment" you mentioned, we can analyze it from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine.
First, let's take a look at cherries. In traditional Chinese medicine theory, cherries are believed to have the effect of nourishing the heart qi and nourishing the heart and blood. Cherries are rich in iron, which has a certain auxiliary effect on iron deficiency anemia. At the same time, antioxidants such as anthocyanins in cherries can help improve the health of the cardiovascular system.
Let's take a look at the longan. Longan is regarded in traditional Chinese medicine as a good medicine for nourishing the heart and spleen, nourishing the blood and calming the nerves. Longan contains a variety of trace elements and nutrients that are beneficial to the human body, and has a certain relieving effect on fatigue, insomnia, heart palpitations and other symptoms.
The cherry longan paste made by combining cherries and longan should theoretically have multiple effects such as tonifying the liver, nourishing the heart, and benefiting the blood. For symptoms such as palpitation, dizziness, etc., cherry longan cream may work through the following aspects:
1.Nutrition: Cherries and longan are rich in nutrients, such as iron, vitamins, minerals, etc., which can supplement the body's needs and improve the symptoms caused by malnutrition.
2.Regulate qi and blood: Traditional Chinese medicine believes that symptoms such as palpitation and dizziness are mostly related to qi and blood imbalance. The cherries and longans in the cherry longan cream both help to regulate qi and blood, so that the flow of qi and blood can return to normal.
3.Peace of mind: The longan in the cherry longan paste has a calming effect and has a certain relieving effect on symptoms such as palpitations and insomnia.
4.Nourish the liver and kidney: The cherry in the cherry longan paste has the effect of nourishing the heart qi and nourishing the heart and blood, and also has a certain improvement effect on the symptoms caused by liver and kidney loss.
Of course, the specific effect of cherry longan cream varies from person to person and needs to be judged according to the individual's constitution and condition. If you have symptoms such as palpitation and dizziness, it is recommended to consult a professional doctor before deciding whether to use cherry longan cream. At the same time, the use of traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to syndrome differentiation and treatment, and it is not recommended to blindly follow the trend, so as not to backfire.
Finally, I would like to emphasize that maintaining a healthy lifestyle and a good mindset is the key to maintaining good health. In terms of diet, it is necessary to pay attention to nutritional balance, eat more vegetables and fruits, and eat less greasy, spicy and other irritating foods. In terms of life and rest, it is necessary to develop good work and rest habits, ensure adequate sleep, and carry out appropriate physical exercise to enhance the body's resistance.
Hope you find the above answers helpful. If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask me. I wish you good health and a happy life!
