10 Best Herbal Teas for Women to Drink to Reduce Heat

Most of the herbal teas currently sold on the market are cold in nature and are not very suitable for women to drink. Because most women have a weak constitution, and people with weak spleen or weak spleen and stomach may experience gastrointestinal discomfort such as diarrhea, bloating, nausea and other problems after drinking it. The physical characteristics of this type of people are: fear of cold, fear of wind, and excessive sweating. Especially if women during menstruation drink cold herbal tea, it is very easy to cause qi and blood to stagnate due to the cold, and menstrual blood to be discharged poorly, causing dysmenorrhea. Pregnant women should avoid drinking herbal tea.

Identify your body constitution and choose herbal tea

Because Chinese medicine can be divided into cold and hot properties, human physique can also be divided into cold and hot. If you cannot distinguish your own constitution and current physical condition, randomly choosing herbal tea will not only fail to relieve the symptoms, but may even have a counterproductive effect.
