Can Lysimachia christinae be drunk as an infusion every day?
1. Whether it is permissible
Although Lysimachia christinae has certain benefits for people's health, it should not be taken long-term. In addition, when taking it, note that if your stomach and spleen are rather cold, it is best not to take it. People with poor digestion and those with a weak, cold constitution are advised not to take it, as the body may show symptoms of discomfort. Do not take too much; every medicine has some toxicity, and taking it in excess or for a long time may cause stomach and spleen discomfort.
2. Effects and actions
1. Stone expulsion: The flavonoids, glycosides and other components rich in Lysimachia christinae can help expel stones from the body. It can generally serve as an adjunctive treatment for conditions such as urinary tract stones and liver and gallbladder stones. In addition, it can also achieve a certain antibacterial effect.
2. Diuresis: It is cool in nature and can produce a diuretic and jaundice-clearing effect; it can be used together with Chinese medicinal herbs such as Yinchen (Artemisia capillaris) and Jigucao (Abrus cantoniensis).
