Olive fruit, commonly known as "Qing Guo," has the following main functions and benefits:
- Clearing heat and detoxifying: Qing Guo has a neutral property with a sweet and sour taste. It can clear the lungs and benefit the throat, relieving symptoms such as sore throat, dry mouth, and thirst.
- Benefiting the throat and relieving cough: As Qing Guo acts on the lung meridian, it also helps soothe the throat and alleviate coughing.
- Promoting digestion: The dietary fiber in Qing Guo can stimulate gastrointestinal motility, aiding digestion and improving symptoms such as indigestion and poor appetite.
- Lowering lipids and aiding weight loss: The unsaturated fatty acids contained in Qing Guo help reduce blood cholesterol levels, offering certain benefits in preventing obesity and cardiovascular diseases.
- Protecting vision: The vitamin A and carotenoids in Qing Guo are beneficial for eye health, helping prevent night blindness and protect vision.
However, patients should use this product under the guidance of a physician, avoiding self-adjusting the dosage or stopping medication without supervision. Individuals allergic to this product are advised not to use it, as allergic reactions such as skin itching and swelling may occur.
