Dr. Shen Yonghua

Hou Gu Yin (oral liquid) mainly functions to protect the gastric mucosa, promote digestion, alleviate stomach discomfort, and enhance immunity in the human body. The active components in Hericium erinaceus can repair damaged gastric mucosa and reduce the irritation of gastric acid on the stomach lining, thereby relieving symptoms such as stomach pain and bloating. At the same time, the polysaccharides and trace elements in Hericium erinaceus help promote the secretion of digestive enzymes and improve digestive function. Hericium erinaceus also exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which can reduce gastric inflammation and protect gastrointestinal health. Additionally, the nutritional components in Hericium erinaceus help enhance the body's immune system and improve disease resistance.

During the administration of Hou Gu Yin (oral liquid), it is recommended to follow the doctor's instructions and take the medication regularly and in the prescribed dosage. Maintain a light diet and avoid consuming spicy, greasy, or strongly irritating foods that may加重 the stomach's workload. At the same time, maintaining healthy lifestyle habits, such as regular作息 and moderate exercise, can help improve overall health. If any adverse symptoms occur during treatment, promptly consult a doctor. Additionally, regular follow-up examinations to monitor gastric health are also necessary.
