Herbal tea is actually a "Chinese herbal medicine decoction" made of cold Chinese herbal medicine that can eliminate the heat in the human body. Although it is also called "tea", it does not have exactly the same effect as traditional ordinary tea. Traditional tea brewed with tea leaves contains caffeine that can make people excited and refreshing. After drinking, people can temporarily eliminate fatigue and improve work efficiency, but drinking strong tea at night makes it difficult to fall asleep.
Herbal tea does not have these characteristics. People who like tea can't use herbal tea instead of tea, otherwise the expected effect will not be achieved. Ordinary tea contains a lot of tannins, which can interact with many pharmaceutical ingredients and affect the absorption of drugs, so it is generally impossible to take medicine with tea; The interaction between herbal tea and other drugs mainly depends on the different Chinese herbal ingredients contained in it. The main function of herbal tea is to reduce fire, and the function of ordinary tea is far less than that of herbal tea. Therefore, people who like or need to drink herbal tea cannot use ordinary tea instead of herbal tea.
