Nowadays, more and more people are aware of the role of traditional Chinese medicine, and many people take it to treat diseases because it is effective and has no side effects. As a traditional Chinese medicine for replenishing qi, Astragalus is favored by many people. Many people know that astragalus has many benefits for the body, but they don't know the taboos of eating astragalus. Some people ask, can I eat astragalus during menstruation?

Astragalus is sweet in taste, slightly warm in nature, and enters the liver, spleen, lung, and kidney meridians. It has the effects of invigorating Qi and strengthening the exterior, restraining sweat and preventing loss of body fluids, supporting sores and promoting tissue regeneration, and promoting diuresis and reducing swelling. In the Five Elements theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine, spring corresponds to the liver. Therefore, regulating liver qi is crucial to health preservation in spring. Astragalus is an excellent product for replenishing qi, and it can play a certain role in replenishing qi during the spring growth season.

In addition, why can’t you drink Astragalus porridge during menstruation? Because Astragalus can strengthen the exterior, it helps the body close the door and prevent external evil from invading. But when the body has been affected by external evil, it will become like closing the door to keep the enemy inside, locking the disease inside the body and leaving it no way to vent. It is best not to eat Astragalus during menstruation to avoid excessive menstruation. In terms of season, it is not suitable for ordinary people to eat astragalus in spring. Spring is the season of growth, and the human body needs to be promoted. Eating astragalus is not very appropriate. However, Astragalus tablets do have special therapeutic effects in other areas that require replenishing qi.

The main health benefits of Astragalus tea are "replenishing Qi and strengthening the exterior" and it can also "promote diuresis". In traditional Chinese medicine, a weak constitution, easy fatigue, and constant feeling of weakness are often manifestations of "Qi deficiency", and anemia is often referred to as "insufficient Qi and blood". Astragalus tea can replenish the qi and invigorate the middle, so any patient who is considered to have "qi deficiency" or "insufficient qi and blood" by traditional Chinese medicine can use astragalus tea to replenish qi and blood and improve adverse symptoms.

In short, you must not eat Astragalus during menstruation. Eating Astragalus during menstruation will affect the menstrual cycle. In addition, I recommend Astragalus granules here.
