Chrysanthemum tea is not effective in regulating heart fire in children.
Children may have symptoms such as mouth and tongue sores, irritability, and yellow urine, etc. Chrysanthemum belongs to the liver meridian, which has the effect of clearing the liver, clearing heat and detoxifying the toxin. Drinking chrysanthemum tea will have a relieving effect on symptoms such as eye boogers, headache, and sore throat, etc., which are caused by liver fire, but it is not effective in the case of a strong heart fire.
When children have symptoms of excessive heart fire, they can drink water or take decoction of lotus heart, honeysuckle and other herbs under the guidance of a doctor.
Chrysanthemum should be used with caution for those who have a deficiency of qi, a cold stomach, or reduced food intake and diarrhea. When children have symptoms of an excessively hot heart, it is recommended that they use the appropriate medication in tea or decoction under the guidance of a Chinese medicine practitioner, and should not use medication indiscriminately.
