The other is superficial yang hyperactivity caused by the human body's own yin deficiency constitution, commonly known as "virtual fire".
The medicinal effect of Wang Laoji can solve the problem of "real fire" in the human body to a certain extent, but some traditional Chinese medicine practitioners have shown that people with "virtual fire" physique will have diarrhea after drinking Wang Laoji! What attack effect does Wang Laoji have? As a representative of Guangdong herbal tea, Wang Laoji herbal tea has many indelible offensive effects.
1. Clear heat and detoxify to prevent getting angry. The hot and humid climate can easily cause gastrointestinal disorders. Coupled with the habit of eating spicy, fat and sweet food, staying up late, or excessive alcohol and tobacco, it is inevitable that symptoms such as excessive fire, sores on the tongue and tongue, sore throat, and dryness of the lungs will occur to varying degrees., poor appetite, and bitter mouth.
These symptoms not only affect study and work, but also easily cause various diseases.
Wanglaoji herbal tea is made according to traditional formulas and uses seven high-quality herbal materials such as chrysanthemum, licorice, immortal grass, honeysuckle, and prunella vulgaris. Modern scientific research shows that Wanglaoji herbal tea contains natural ingredients such as plant flavonoids, which has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying and preventing excessive heat.
2. Daily health effects: Drinking Wanglaoji Cool Tea frequently for daily health care can remove toxins in the human body in a timely manner, clear heat and reduce fire, improve human immunity, soften the skin, feel refreshed after drinking, and have endless aftertaste.
3. Qingre drinks. The previous Wanglaoji herbal tea has a strong traditional Chinese medicine flavor, making people feel difficult to swallow.

I first caught a cold, so I drank a cup of Wang Laoji to get rid of it.
But Wang Laoji can't drink it casually. When the following symptoms of excessive heat appear, it is not suitable to drink Wang Laoji.
1. Slightly disgusted with cold, headache, dry mouth and slight thirst, sharp red edges of the tongue, etc. It is suitable for drinking herbal tea with the main effect of relieving the exterior and clearing heat (such as herbal tea made with honeysuckle, forsythia, etc.).
2. Symptoms such as intense fever, irritability, confusion, thirst for water, oral ulcers, constipation, and dark urine are appropriate for consuming cooling teas (such as those containing traditional Chinese medicine formulas like Coptis chinensis, Scutellaria baicalensis, Gardenia jasminoides, etc.), which primarily aim to clear heat and detoxify.
3. Dry mouth, throat, and irritability, as well as night sweats, are symptoms that are appropriate for consuming cooling teas (such as those containing herbs such as Sha Dong, Yu Zhu, and Mai Dong) that nourish yin, cool the body, and generate fluids.
4. For individuals experiencing severe symptoms of overheating, it is advisable to seek a doctor's diagnosis and treatment. While herbal teas can provide some support, they ultimately serve as a supplementary measure.
Wang Laoji Guan Le Tsao, although it is representative of the Ling Tiao, can be consumed regularly, yet it is not suitable for everyone at any time. There are certain groups that should not consume Wang Laoji Guan Le Tsao. What exactly are these groups? 1. People with Yang Deficiency Syndrome. In modern society, there is a high prevalence of Yang Deficiency Syndrome, many of whom spend their days sitting in offices facing computers, reducing physical labor intensity and outdoor activities, thus failing to exercise the function of promoting Yang energy.
In addition, the use of air conditioners makes the seasonal impact of summer on the human body less obvious than in the past, resulting in the rise and weakness of yang in the body with the seasons.
As a result, many people's constitutions are overreaching yang deficiency and can no longer withstand the large amount of stimulation from cold substances.
There are often some white-collar workers in the office who are afraid of cold, have cold limbs, pale faces, loose stools, and clear and long urine. They must check to see if they have drunk too much herbal tea.
2. People in bitter summer, people in bitter summer have weak promotion, transportation and transformation of spleen and stomach yang, and have less food intake, so their resistance is relatively low.
In summer, sweat secretes a lot, but traditional Chinese medicine believes that sweat is the "yang fluid" of the human body. If you sweat too much, yang qi will leak out with the sweat. If you take bitter cold herbal tea at this time, it will hurt the spleen and stomach, making the already weak spleen and stomach weaker, and the healthy qi will be impaired, which not only exacerbates the symptoms of bitter summer, but also causes many other diseases due to reduced immunity.
3. During menstruation and the postpartum period, it is crucial for women to maintain the warmth of their meridians to ensure the smooth flow of blood vessels and prevent stagnation.
During menstruation and postpartum, women are extremely weak in their bodies, especially sensitive to the stimulus of cold and heat.
Drinking cold tea excessively due to hot weather can give temporary relief to the stomach. However, once absorbed into the bloodstream, the chilly stimulation can cause sluggish blood flow and even form blood stasis, leading to menstrual disorders such as painful periods, irregular menstruation, reduced menstruation volume, and in severe cases, even hemorrhage or amenorrhea.
4. Children and the elderly, who are considered pure Yang bodies, are particularly prone to experiencing spleen-heat.
However, drinking cold tea is not a good way to prevent child heat.
Due to the children's spleen and stomach regulatory functions being in a stage of establishment and perfection, they are not yet able to adjust quickly to and adapt to the cold and cool stimulation from external medications. Instead, these medications directly affect the spleen and stomach, affecting digestion and absorption, resulting in abdominal pain and diarrhea.
Elderly individuals, due to the gradual decline in Yang energy and the deterioration of organ function, may also experience digestive system disorders and a series of symptoms resulting from the stimulation of cold tea due to the cooling effect.
