The ancients wanted to drink Tu Su wine during the Spring Festival. What is "Tu Su wine"?

Tu Su liquor legend is a kind of medicinal liquor created by Hua Tuo, a famous doctor in the late Han Dynasty. Its formula is relatively simple, and there are not many raw materials involved, including rhubarb, atractylodes macrocephala, cassia twig, pepper, aconite root and other traditional Chinese medicines, which are very powerful.

Sun Simiao, a famous doctor, likes Tu Su wine very much. He not only enjoys the beauty of this wine, but also hopes that the beauty of this wine can be enjoyed by others. Every year in the twelfth lunar month, he fills the medicine according to the prescription, grinds it into small particles, makes it into small medicine bags, and distributes it to all neighbors and villagers, telling everyone that using medicine to make wine and drink it on New Year's Eve can prevent the plague. Sun Simiao also named his house "Tu Su House". Moreover, he has repeatedly advertised this medicinal liquor. "Lei Jun" said: "One person drinks alcohol, and one family has no epidemic. A family drinks, and there is no epidemic in one mile. " "Yu Xia Fang" said: "After drinking medicine for three dynasties, you still throw it into the well. When you drink this water at the age of 20, you will be disease-free for life."

Besides Sun Simiao, other famous people in history also have a special liking for Tu Su wines. In the Song Dynasty, Wang Anshi wrote a poem: "Spring breeze removes firecrackers and sends warmth into Tu Su." Lu You also said in Snow Removal at Night: "Tu Su didn't hold up the half light, and the peach blossom symbol was scrawled in front of the light.".

Although Tu Su wine is really good for people's health, we also know that many of its raw materials are traditional Chinese medicine, which is toxic in three ways, so it is also toxic. The younger you are, the deeper the poisoning is, and the more difficult it is to resolve. And if you soak in fake wine, you will add poison to the poison. Of course, people who like to drink Tu Su wine don't need to be too afraid, because the Tu Su wine we are drinking now has been thoroughly improved, and its toxicity is greatly reduced or even negligible, so we can safely drink it.
