Welcome everyone to share your experiences with the medicine in the replies, so that other students can easily search and learn.
197. Galangal
Spicy with a hint of bitterness, and a touch of sweetness. The soul of Laoshan Cola comes from galangal (ingredients: water, white sugar, black jujube, coffee, white peony, sand ginger, galangal, clove).
After drinking, the stomach feels warm but not overheated, warming upward to the diaphragm and downward to the area around the navel, with the warmth focused overall.
Effect: Warms the stomach, with a slight nourishing effect.
197.1 Amomum
Has a flavor reminiscent of an old popsicle, mainly sweet with a hint of complex fruitiness.
After drinking, the stomach qi flows more smoothly.
Effect: Harmonizes the stomach and reduces counterflow.
198. Pepper
Brews a cup of clear and pure spicy soup.
Pepper powder is consumed daily; it can warm the stomach (feeling-wise), but using it to treat stomach cold is a bit impractical. Because when it reaches a truly therapeutic dose, the taste shifts from spicy to bitter, and just one sip causes the mouth and throat to burn painfully, and after swallowing, the stomach also starts to hurt — whereas if taken in the usual quantity that just makes the stomach feel warm, the effect is only that the stomach feels warm.
It also has a side effect: while warming the stomach, its hot and fiery nature causes sweating and promotes inflammatory responses in the body.
Therefore, I do not use this medicine. The final assessment of its effect is: seasoning.
