Effects of perilla leaf water
Lao Dong newspaper quoted VFA website as saying that fresh perilla juice is easy to drink, refreshing and has many health benefits.
Cold relief support
Perilla is classified in traditional medicine as a medicine to relieve symptoms of colds in the early stages of the disease. There are many ways for patients to use it, such as cooking onion porridge with perilla, which stimulates gastric juice secretion and has the effect of sweating to relieve colds; boiling perilla leaf water and then steaming the whole body. However, the appropriate method for both children and the elderly is to boil perilla leaf water and drink it while it is still warm.
Skin care from the inside
With antibacterial ingredients that help fight inflammation quite well, perilla has properties that help reduce swelling. Many women use fresh perilla leaf juice to help reduce acne, pustules, etc. Drinking perilla leaf juice will stimulate secretion through sweat glands, thereby increasing the excretion of toxins that are harmful to the body in general and the skin in particular.
Support for people with gout
Perilla leaves contain active ingredients that reduce the concentration of uric acid in the user's blood. This helps improve the condition of people with gout. However, patients should still consult their doctor to balance the use of the prescribed medication.
What diseases should not drink perilla leaf water?
Although perilla leaf juice is good for health, not everyone can drink it. According to Health & Life newspaper, physician Tran Dang Tai - Vice President of the Oriental Medicine Association of Thai Hoa town - Nghe An, perilla has a spicy, warm nature, so people with colds (with symptoms of high fever, chills, sweating, thirst...), especially those who are hot-tempered, weak, tired, and often have colds, should not use it. People with fever and sweating should not use it.
Perilla also has a certain effect in increasing blood sugar levels, so diabetics should be careful when using it.
In addition, physician Tai also advises not to eat too much perilla leaves, because perilla contains a large amount of oxalic acid. When oxalic acid meets calcium and zinc in the human body, it will form calcium oxalate and zinc oxalate. The human body will damage the nervous system, digestive system and blood-forming function of the human body.
Absolutely do not eat crucian carp cooked with perilla leaves because it can cause poisoning and ulcers.
If perilla is used for a long time, people with weak spleen and stomach will have diarrhea. People with weak qi and yin should not eat perilla.
