When liver fire and stomach fire are excessive, you may consider the following teas for regulation:
1. Chrysanthemum tea: Chrysanthemum tea helps clear heat from the heart, reduce internal fire, and relieve summer heat. It is effective in alleviating discomfort caused by excessive liver and stomach fire.
2. Dandelion tea: Dandelion tea clears heat, detoxifies the body, and reduces fire. It helps relieve symptoms such as mouth ulcers and dry, hard stools caused by excessive internal heat.
3. Honeysuckle tea: Honeysuckle tea effectively clears liver and stomach fire, and also has a beneficial effect on lung and heart fire.
4. Lotus leaf tea: With a bitter and slightly astringent taste and a cool nature, lotus leaf tea helps reduce internal heat, relieve summer heat, and eliminate dampness. It is suitable for individuals suffering from excessive liver and stomach fire.
5. Cassia seed tea (Jue Ming Zi tea): Naturally cool in nature, cassia seed tea helps soothe the liver, regulate qi, and clear excessive stomach fire. It is especially suitable for those with excessive liver and stomach fire.
These teas can help regulate excessive liver and stomach fire, but they are not substitutes for professional medical advice. If symptoms persist, please seek medical attention promptly.
