The health benefits and effects of drinking water infused with fetal chrysanthemum (Fetal Chrysanthemum, also known as baby chrysanthemum buds) and rose flowers mainly include the following points: 1. **Beauty enhancement and skin nourishment**: Rose flowers are rich in vitamin C, which helps whiten the skin and improve skin tone. Fetal chrysanthemum has antioxidant properties that can delay aging. 2. **Clearing heat and detoxification**: Fetal chrysanthemum has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying the body and can be used to treat conditions such as wind-heat colds and abscesses. Rose flowers similarly help clear internal heat and detoxify, relieving symptoms such as irritability, anger, restlessness, and thirst caused by excessive liver fire. 3. **Regulating liver function and relieving depression**: Rose flowers help soothe the liver and relieve emotional depression. They can alleviate fatigue and improve sleep quality. Fetal chrysanthemum, with its liver-calming and vision-improving properties, also helps relieve eye fatigue. 4. **Promoting blood circulation and regulating menstruation**: Rose flowers help promote blood circulation, regulate menstruation, and relieve dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation). They are effective to some extent in treating menstrual irregularities and period-related pain in women. If patients have any concerns, they are advised to seek timely medical consultation.
