Water boiled with artichoke can be drunk on medical advice. Artichoke, also known as vegetable artichoke, is the leaf of vegetable artichoke in the family of Asteraceae, which belongs to a kind of traditional Chinese medicine. It is sweet in flavor and flat in nature. It has the efficacy of dredging the liver and inducing bile, clearing away dampness and heat, and is clinically used for the treatment of jaundice, distension and pain in the chest and ribs, and damp-heat diarrhea (diarrhea caused by feeling dampness and heat) and other symptoms.
The water boiled with artichoke can be drunk, with the above effects, but note that a single Chinese medicine has a weak effect, and can be used simultaneously with other medicines under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine in order to achieve the best therapeutic effect. Clinical contraindications as well as adverse reactions to this drug are not clear. When consuming it, attention should be paid to the intake so that excessive consumption will not cause adverse effects on the body.
When taking Chinese herbal medicines for treatment or body conditioning, they should be applied rationally under the diagnosis of professional Chinese medicine practitioners, and should not be used on their own, so as not to cause physical discomfort.
