During menstruation, if there is a need for indications, you can eat Codonopsis under the guidance of a doctor, but you need to pay attention to eat in moderation.
Mothers consume a lot of qi and blood during labor, and their bodies are in a state of extreme deficiency after delivery, so they can take some medicines to replenish qi and blood in moderation. Codonopsis belongs to the lung and spleen meridians and is sweet and flat in nature. It has the effect of nourishing blood and generating fluids, tonifying the spleen and benefiting the lungs. It can be applied to deficiency of qi and blood, dizziness and weakness, yellowish color, palpitation and shortness of breath.
Codonopsis pilosula has the efficacy of tonifying both qi and blood, so it is suitable for qi and blood deficiency cases in which blood deficiency cannot transform qi, or qi deficiency cannot produce blood and symptoms such as yellowish or pale face, dizziness, fatigue, palpitation, etc. It can be paired with Angelica sinensis, Radix Rehmanniae Praeparata, Astragali, etc., to enhance the efficacy of tonifying qi and blood.
Consult a medical professional before consuming Codonopsis pilosula. Do not consume it on your own or in excess.
