Question
Doctor, I want to ask if it’s okay to boil red jujube, bamboo leaves, and seed grains together for drinking? Are there any precautions I should be aware of?
Answer
These herbs can be taken together, providing antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-aging effects. They help protect cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health and enhance the body’s immunity. Bamboo leaf water contains a large amount of flavonoids, particularly effective against Bacillus subtilis and Escherichia coli. Additionally, it has properties to combat fatigue, calm the mind, promote diuresis, cool the body, and reduce inflammation. However, the prescription you’ve mentioned seems unconventional. If you’re considering taking traditional Chinese medicine, it’s advisable to consult a hospital.
