Myrrh is bitter and turbid in taste, and has strong irritation to the stomach, easily causing nausea and vomiting, and has the disadvantage of injuring the spleen and destroying the stomach, so it should be used with caution for those with weak spleen and stomach, and should not be used in large doses.
If there is any discomfort, it is recommended to consult a doctor. If you need to use medication, you should go through a doctor’s diagnosis and follow the doctor’s instructions for standardized treatment.
