Should kidney-tonifying Chinese medicine be taken before or after meals?

Maybe many of our friends, especially some male friends, have not been in good kidney function recently, which will bring a great threat to the health of many of us. Moreover, poor health will directly affect the prostate problem, which will have a great impact on our own sex life and make our whole family very worried. Chinese medicine can be used for treatment. Let us understand whether the kidney-tonifying Chinese medicine should be taken before or after meals.

1. Chinese medicine is usually taken about 30 minutes after a meal, that is, when you don't feel very full after a meal. You can't drink it when you are too full. Drinking too much will make you uncomfortable, and it is not good for absorption. Drinking on an empty stomach is not good for your stomach. So you can drink it about 30 minutes after a meal when you don't feel very full and have room to take the medicine.

2. It is recommended to stagger the meal times, because tonic and aphrodisiac medicines are mostly greasy, and greasy medicines are often harmful to the stomach and affect the gastrointestinal digestive function. If taken after meals, it may affect digestion, but taking it before meals will affect appetite. Generally, take it twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. You can take it one hour before going to bed at night. I hope the answer is helpful to you.

3. The method of taking Chinese medicine is determined according to the condition of the disease and the properties of the medicine. Generally speaking, tonic medicines should be taken before meals; anthelmintics and laxatives are mostly taken on an empty stomach; stomachic medicines and medicines that are more irritating to the gastrointestinal tract should be taken after meals; and sleeping pills should be taken before bedtime. Whether taking the medicine before or after meals, there should be a slight interval, such as about 1-2 hours before or after meals, so as not to affect the efficacy. Traditional Chinese medicine that replenishes kidney yang and reduces urination is a tonic medicine, so it should be taken about 1-2 hours before meals.
