Introduction
Although vine tea has many benefits, it is not suitable for everyone. Therefore, it is recommended that individuals with a cold body constitution, pregnant women, nursing mothers, infants, patients with peptic ulcers, and patients with severe liver disease avoid drinking it as much as possible to prevent加重 the body's burden or causing discomfort. If currently consuming vine tea, regular monitoring is advised, and use should be discontinued promptly if any adverse symptoms occur.
Generally, it is not recommended for individuals with a cold body constitution, pregnant or lactating women, infants and young children, patients with gastric ulcers, or patients with severe liver disease to consume vine tea. Detailed explanations are as follows:
1. Individuals with a Cold Body Constitution
Vine tea has a relatively cold nature, and long-term consumption may cause a sensation of coldness in the body. Those with an inherently cold constitution should avoid drinking it as much as possible to prevent exacerbating cold-related reactions, which may lead to symptoms such as diarrhea and abdominal pain.
2. Pregnant or Lactating Women
Although moderate consumption of vine tea may provide certain health benefits, pregnant and lactating women have unique physical conditions. Long-term consumption of vine tea may affect health and could potentially compromise the quality of breast milk or increase the risk of miscarriage.
3. Infants and Young Children
The bodies and organ functions of infants and young children are not yet fully developed, and their physical condition is relatively weak. Drinking vine tea too early may irritate the gastrointestinal tract, causing symptoms such as abdominal cold pain and diarrhea. Moreover, the caffeine content might also affect the development of the nervous system in infants and young children.
4. Patients with Gastric Ulcers
Individuals suffering from gastric ulcers are not advised to consume vine tea, as certain antioxidant components in vine tea may irritate the mucous membranes of the digestive system, causing significant irritation upon contact, which is unfavorable for recovery.
5. Patients with Severe Liver Disease
Patients with severe liver disease should also avoid drinking vine tea to prevent additional strain on the liver, which could worsen the condition or cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite.
It should be noted that the above-mentioned groups are not absolutely prohibited from consuming vine tea, but rather it is not recommended. After consumption, regular observation should be conducted, and if any discomfort occurs, intake should be stopped promptly.
