What tea should you drink to clear liver fire and heart fire?
Disease description:
After eating spicy food for a week, I experienced stomach bloating. Initially I thought it was due to overeating, but symptoms didn't improve even after taking medication. Later, it was determined to be caused by excessive liver fire and heart fire. I would like to know what kind of tea can help relieve liver fire and heart fire.

To reduce liver fire and heart fire, drink chrysanthemum tea, gentian herb tea, honeysuckle tea, wolfberry tea, cassia seed tea, etc. While drinking tea, massaging specific acupoints can also help alleviate liver fire. Generally, the Taichong and Yanglingquan acupoints can be massaged. Soaking feet in hot water before massage is recommended. Patients are advised to avoid spicy foods such as chili peppers, garlic, pepper, and Sichuan pepper in daily life, and to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, which can have a beneficial effect.
