Health & Life Newspaper quoted Traditional Medicine Practitioner Tran Dang Tai - Vice President of the Oriental Medicine Association of Thai Hoa town - Nghe An as saying that in folk medicine, people distinguish two types of perilla: red leaf type (Perilla ocymoides var.) and green leaf type (purpurascens).

Perilla is an annual herbaceous plant belonging to the family Lamiaceae, like most plants in the Lamiaceae family. It has a volatile aromatic essential oil, which is commonly used for flavoring, medicine, or as a spice in cooking.

What are the effects of red perilla leaves? This is a concern of many people.
Should I drink perilla leaf water every day?
Although perilla is good for health, experts advise against drinking too much perilla juice for a long time. Drinking too much perilla juice for a long time will lead to bloating, flatulence, and body weakness.
You should divide the amount of perilla leaf water into small portions for each drink. Each session of perilla leaf water should not be consumed for too long.
Perilla leaves also contain a lot of oxalic acid. If consumed regularly, a large amount of oxalic acid will accumulate in the body. A large amount of oxalic acid deposited in the body can easily damage the nervous system and digestive system.
Who should not drink perilla leaf water?
Perilla leaves are warm in nature, so people with a lot of heat in their body should not drink them because it can make the condition worse. In addition, carp and perilla should not be combined together to avoid causing heat and causing acne.
