Too Much Turmeric
Those who have discussed the disadvantages of using turmeric
Ancient doctors paid attention to the precision of medication, and knew that all medicines have their own properties, and the degree of dosage is related to curative effect and safety. Turmeric has a warm nature and a hard taste. It enters the liver and spleen meridians, and has the ability to break blood and move qi, pass menstruation and relieve pain.
However, there are people who do not know the pharmacology of the world, and every time they use turmeric. Or because they smell the effect of turmeric, they want quick effect and arbitrarily increase the amount; or because the doctor has not reviewed the severity of the disease or the reality of the body, they all use large doses. But I do not know that using turmeric is very harmful.
Turmeric has a strong power to break blood, and if it is used too much, it will In the infirm, qi and blood are inherently deficient. If turmeric is used too much, it will cause qi and blood to become more deficient. It can be seen that the complexion is pale, the head is dizzy, and the symptoms of fatigue and fatigue. And its nature is warm, and overuse is easy to help fire generate heat. Hot is disturbing the mind, making people upset, insomnia and dreamy; hot body fluid can cause dry mouth and dry stool. If you overuse it with a healthy body, it is like pouring oil on a fire, and the heat is even worse, even causing carbuncle and sores.
Furthermore, the power of turmeric to promote qi is also fierce, and if you overuse it, it consumes qi. Qi is the root of life, and gas consumption damages the functions of the viscera. The qi of the spleen and stomach is exhausted, and the transportation and transformation are negligent, which can be seen as loss of appetite, abdominal distension and loose stools; if the lungs are exhausted, the breathing will be short of breath, and the movement will be especially severe.
Therefore, the doctor should use the medicine, like walking on thin ice, carefully review the condition, weigh the pros and cons, and use the medicine with precision. This is the important thing for the doctor.
