Four Common Combinations for Chrysanthemum Tea! Although it boasts numerous health benefits, it’s not suitable for these five groups of people.

Chrysanthemum tea is one of the most commonly consumed floral teas in daily life, and it’s also a rare health-enhancing tea. Many people know that drinking chrysanthemum tea can help clear the liver, improve vision, and cool down the body by reducing internal heat. However, chrysanthemum tea isn’t all beneficial—it also has some potential drawbacks. When people brew and drink chrysanthemum tea regularly, it can bring both advantages and disadvantages to their health. Let’s take a closer look below. Common Combinations 1. Chrysanthemum + Flos Albiziae: Flos Albiziae clears heat, moistens the lungs, relieves sore throat and improves voice quality, and promotes bowel movements. Adding Flos Albiziae enhances its effectiveness in relieving the foreign-body sensation caused by chronic pharyngitis and can also help alleviate hoarseness. 2. Chrysanthemum + Bitter Almonds: Bitter almonds are commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine as an antitussive and can also lubricate the intestines and promote bowel movements. They’re particularly suitable for people suffering from phlegm and cough. You can either crush them and boil for 10 minutes or grind them into powder and steep them in hot water. The recommended dosage is 3–5 grams per serving. However, bitter almonds should not be taken over a long period, and they’re not recommended for infants and young children. Note: The bitter almonds mentioned here refer to a type of Chinese medicinal herb, whereas the sweet almonds we often eat as snacks are a different variety. 3. Chrysanthemum + Goji Berries: Goji berries have a delicious taste and nourish the liver and kidneys, enrich essence, and improve eyesight. When brewed together, this combination is ideal for people who overuse their eyes over a long period. 4. Chrysanthemum + Hawthorn: Hawthorn helps strengthen the spleen, stimulate appetite, aid digestion, and relieve food stagnation. It also has effects such as lowering blood lipids, blood pressure, strengthening the heart, and combating arrhythmia. Combined with chrysanthemum, it can help reduce fat and lower blood pressure. Patients with obesity or hypertension may benefit from drinking more of this tea. Five Groups of People Who Should Avoid Drinking Chrysanthemum Tea 1. Pregnant Women and Children: Chrysanthemum tea is cooling in nature and sweet in flavor, making it highly effective at clearing away internal heat. However, pregnant women have weakened immune systems and relatively weak spleen and stomach functions. Consuming chrysanthemum tea can easily irritate the gastrointestinal tract, causing symptoms like abdominal pain and diarrhea, which are detrimental to the healthy development of the fetus. Children are at a peak stage of growth and development, with abundant yang energy. Drinking chrysanthemum tea can deplete their yang energy, so it’s best to avoid it altogether. 2. People with Cold Constitution: Individuals with a cold constitution tend to feel cold, have a weak body, weak spleen and stomach functions, and low immunity. Even in summer, they may experience cold hands and feet, diarrhea, and gastrointestinal discomfort. Since chrysanthemum tea is cooling in nature, it will only exacerbate these symptoms and harm their health. 3. People with Yang Deficiency: If someone with yang deficiency continuously drinks chrysanthemum tea, which has the effect of clearing heat and eliminating fire, it can easily damage their vital energy, leaving them increasingly weaker. 4. People with Typhoid or Common Cold: Generally, typhoid or common colds are caused by exposure to cold. Given the nature of chrysanthemum tea, it’s not suitable for those suffering from such colds. Moreover, people with a cold accompanied by pharyngitis should especially avoid chrysanthemum tea, as it stimulates gastric acid secretion, aggravates throat inflammation, delays recovery, and reduces the quality of recovery. 5. People with Allergies: In real life, some individuals are allergic to chrysanthemum tea. Chrysanthemums contain large amounts of chrysanthemum flowers, pollen, and various natural trace elements. Drinking chrysanthemum tea can trigger allergic reactions such as skin redness and rashes. Therefore, people with allergies may experience adverse effects from drinking chrysanthemum tea, which could harm their health.

During the peak flu season in winter, how can we prevent it?

Winter is the peak season for influenza outbreaks. As cold air sets in, various illnesses tend to increase, and more and more people catch colds. So, how can we prevent catching a cold? Winter is the peak season for influenza outbreaks. As cold air sets in, various illnesses tend to increase, and more and more people catch colds. So, how can we prevent catching a cold? 1. Stay Warm and Protect Against the Cold In winter, the weather is unpredictable, with frequent cold waves. Therefore, it’s important to take timely measures to stay warm and protect against the cold according to the weather conditions—such as adding clothes and bedding promptly—to avoid getting chilled and triggering illness. Since the feet are relatively far from the heart and blood circulation there tends to be less efficient, special attention should be paid to keeping your feet warm. 2. Maintain a Balanced Diet Strengthen your nutrition, get adequate rest, and maintain a scientifically sound lifestyle. Ensure sufficient intake of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Eat more red-colored foods, such as carrots, red peppers, and tomatoes—these are rich in beta-carotene, which can neutralize oxygen free radicals and boost macrophage activity, making them highly effective in preventing and treating influenza. Rinsing your mouth daily with a mild saltwater solution or black tea can also provide some protection against influenza. 3. Stick to Regular Exercise Increase physical activity and spend more time outdoors. Each day, engage in moderate-intensity exercises such as walking, cycling, jogging, or practicing Tai Chi to enhance your body’s resistance. Make it a habit to wash your face with cool water—it helps improve your body’s ability to adapt to temperature changes. 4. Keep Your Living Space Well-Ventilated Ensure that the air inside your home remains fresh and well-circulated. In addition to regular ventilation, you can use vinegar for enclosed-space fumigation every day. Walls, floors, and household items can be wiped down with a 0.5% solution of bleaching powder. Since the survival of the influenza virus is also influenced by... 5. Avoid Mutual Infection During flu epidemics, try to minimize or avoid attending large gatherings and group activities, and reduce visits to public places. If someone in your household is already infected with the flu, take protective measures: wear a mask when in close contact with the patient. 6. Get Vaccinated According to health authorities’ forecasts, get vaccinated against influenza in a timely manner, especially if you’re elderly or have chronic illnesses. You can also use traditional Chinese medicines such as Radix Isatidis, Dryopteris Crassirhizoma, Folium Isatidis, and Honeysuckle—each 15 grams—prepared by decocting in water (take this remedy for 3–5 consecutive days; reduce the dosage by half for children; pregnant women and nursing mothers should avoid taking it). This has a good preventive effect. Additionally, keep some common cold medications at home.

12th Anniversary Celebration

The 12th Anniversary Celebration On August 28, 2020, Fulekang Pharmaceutical marked the 12th anniversary of its establishment. Time flies by, and as the market economy has continued to develop, Fulekang Pharmaceutical has steadily achieved success and grown stronger step by step. Driven by their spirit of fearlessness in the face of difficulties and their determination to reach new heights, the people of Fulekang are forging ahead toward an even brighter future. To celebrate this unforgettable day, a commendation ceremony was held at 9 a.m. The event began with a brief introduction by the host. Leaders and representatives from both new and veteran employees delivered inspiring speeches that greatly encouraged all the staff. Each year, the company allocates substantial funds to reward colleagues who have demonstrated outstanding performance at work—this is done to recognize excellence and motivate those who are still striving to improve. After lunch, the office had carefully prepared a variety of fun games, allowing employees to fully experience the warmth of our big family while also providing an opportunity for team-building exercises. This scene reminded me of Fu Disheng’s song “Everyone Paddles Together to Sail the Big Boat”: A single chopstick can be easily broken, but ten chopsticks held tightly together form an unbreakable bundle. It is precisely this spirit that our team needs—only by closely relying on the collective can individuals tap into limitless strength. At 5 p.m., the members of Fulekang gathered together for a festive dinner. Friends who loved singing and dancing showcased their talents, adding extra joy to the celebration. Everyone danced gracefully around the bonfire, and as fireworks bloomed silently in the night sky, petals rained down like a shower, seemingly within easy reach. Honors reflect our past achievements, while our commitment to forging ahead points toward the future. The successes Fulekang Pharmaceutical has attained today would not have been possible without the support and assistance from friends and partners across various sectors.
