Do you want to take Angong Niuhuang Pill for health?

I was shocked for another year, and articles and videos about taking Angong Niuhuang Pills for health preservation emerged one after another. Some of them even come from medical professionals. They are very helpless. They think that "taking Angong Niuhuang Pill before the solar term can prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and improve immunity". In order to set the record straight, let's study Angong Niuhuang Pill in depth to avoid being deceived.

Angong Niuhuang Pill, Zixuedan and ZhiBao Dan are also called the Three Treasures of Epidemic Febrile Diseases, which come from Wu Jutong's Treatise on Epidemic Febrile Diseases in Qing Dynasty. The original text can be found in Taiyin Epidemic Febrile Diseases ... For those who are unconscious, Qinggong Decoction is the main one, and Niuhuang Pill, Zixuedan and Fang Juzhi Baodan are also the main ones. Include Calculus Bovis, Radix Curcumae, Rhinoceros Horn, Coptidis Rhizoma, Cinnabar, Plum Blossom, Musk, Zhu Zhen, Gardenia, Realgar, Golden Foil Coat and Scutellaria baicalensis. Indications: Fever enters pericardium, characterized by high fever, restlessness, delirium, red tongue, Huang Gan coating and strong pulse. It can also be used for treating pericardial syndrome caused by heat in acute stage of apoplexy, and has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, and inducing resuscitation.

As can be seen from the above, Angong Niuhuang Pill is an emergency medicine for fever, not a preventive medicine, not a health care product, and it can't prevent stroke. Misuse of this medicine will not only lose money, but also cause harm to human body. Amazing solar terms are the key moment when the human body's yang rises. At this time, it is necessary to protect the yang, just like the Huangdi Neijing said, "Yang in spring and summer." Angong Niuhuang Pill consists of a group of cold products. Taking this medicine by mistake may lead to the damage of heart yang, spleen yang and kidney yang, resulting in palpitation, chest tightness, abdominal pain, diarrhea, chills and cold limbs.

In addition, we should know that Angong Niuhuang Pill contains cinnabar (mainly mercury sulfide) and realgar (mainly arsenic disulfide), which has certain toxicity and should not be taken for a long time.
