The Pharmacopoeia stipulates that there are no special requirements for liquor, but in practice, two types of liquor are generally used. One is rice wine, yellow liquor, with a low degree of level, it is made by mixing medicine with rice. Second, liquor is often used as medicinal liquor. It is used for promoting Qi, promoting blood circulation, and supplementing deficiency. The level is high. Generally, it should be less than 55 degrees and less than 65 degrees, liquor time: 15--100 days

Medicinal liquor is widely used in daily life. Pay attention to the following aspects:
First, the liquor used for medicinal liquor should not be too high. Because of the active ingredients in medicinal herbs, some are easy to dissolve in water, some are easy to dissolve in wine, if the alcohol level is too high, although it can increase the precipitation of Alcohol soluble ingredients, but it is not conducive to the dissolution of Water Soluble ingredients. Generally, the liquor level of Medicated Liquor is about 50 degrees. This is because the wine of about 50 degrees can kill the bacteria that stick to the Chinese herbal medicine and harmful microorganisms, parasites and eggs to a large extent during the soaking process. Make it safe to drink.
Secondly, the medicinal herbs of animals and plants should be respectively soaked in medicinal liquor, and the soaked medicinal liquor should be mixed evenly when used. This is because animal herbs are rich in fat and protein, and their medicinal properties take a long time to bubble out. The active ingredients in plant herbs can be quickly dissolved in water or alcohol. Separate the values for easy time.
Third, the medicinal liquor should not be made of plastic products, because harmful substances in plastic products are easy to dissolve in the wine, causing harm to the human body. It is best to use ceramic or glass bottles. At the same time, try to avoid sunlight or hot roasting.
Fourth, when taking medicinal liquor, it is not suitable for sugar or ice sugar, so as not to affect the efficacy, it is best to add a little honey, because the honey is mild, after adding medicinal liquor can not only reduce the stimulation of medicinal liquor on the gastrointestinal, it is also conducive to maintaining and improving efficacy.

The soaking and processing of medicinal liquor involves the selection of medicinal materials, specific processing techniques, color correction, and other issues. The proper handling of these problems will directly affect the health effect of medicinal liquor, and should be taken seriously. Generally, if you are immersed in nourishing medicinal liquor, you should select a liquor with a lower ethanol content, such as yellow wine or low-alcohol liquor. Wrap the selected medicinal material in gauze or place it in a covered ceramic pot, a stuffed glass tank, and other containers. Add liquor or rice wine according to the prescription requirements, and secreate and soak the medicine together. During the soaking period, shake or stir once a day from the first 1st weeks. After one week, you can change it to vibration or stir once a week. Generally, the more the shaking or stirring frequency is, the better the leaching effect of the medicinal liquor is. Generally, the soaking time is good for 30 days. If the soaking time is 1 month or longer, the effect will be better. After being soaked, you can filter and drink. The remaining dregs can be resoaked with half of the original liquor amount to give full play to the medicinal effect of the soaked medicinal herbs. When drinking, if the medicinal liquor is spicy and the medicinal taste is too strong, you can add sugar and honey to the right amount for flavor correction. If you cannot drink liquor, you can choose low-level rice wine, wine or other fruit wine as the base wine as your preferred choice. Yellow Wine is a type of Brewed Wine With a liquor degree of about 15 degrees. Yellow wine, the original intention is yellow wine, but the color of yellow wine is not always yellow, there are black, red. Rice Wine is actually a kind of liquor made from cereals. The brewed liquor (excluding distilled liquor) made from grain can be classified as yellow liquor. It is better to use high-quality liquor for processing medicinal liquor. Taking liquor as an example, a good liquor should be colorless, transparent, non-turbid, with no sediment, aromatic smell, and strong taste. The quality of Yellow Rice Wine requires the color to be yellow-brown and transparent. The flavor is rich and honest, and the taste is soft and refreshing. It is very important to grasp the liquor concentration according to the performance and efficacy of the expected medicinal liquor. If the alcohol concentration is too high, the water in the drug is easily infiltrated, and the medicinal material becomes hard, the active ingredient is difficult to dissolve and precipitate. If the liquor concentration is too low, the drug may expand in size due to water absorption, and some bitter taste and impurities are easily dissolved, affecting the smell of the medicinal liquor. In general, when preparing nourishing medicinal liquor, the concentration of raw liquor used can be lower. when preparing the medicinal liquor with dampness, qi and blood, and channels, the concentration of raw liquor can be higher. 
 

How to soak in medicinal liquor. Professor Hou shiliang, the Third Affiliated School of Henan Chinese medicine, known as "Henan Xiaoyao Wang", said. Professor Hou shiliang, who is more effective in medicine by alcohol, said: currently, medicinal liquor is divided into two categories. One is the complete batch number of the National Drug Administration Department, with a uniform name, which has been strictly processed. Program , There is a strict dose, the proportion of alcohol, such as rheumatism, guogong liquor. Another type of medicinal liquor is self-brewed according to your personal preferences. When medicine and wine match, the liquor strength will be greater, and the drug strength will be stronger. Professor Hou shiliang said that traditional Chinese medicine can play a better role only by extracting and soaking the active ingredients. However, the vast majority of plant medicines contain fat-soluble substances, volatile oil, alkali and other components. If they are soaked in water and other inorganic substances, they cannot be precipitated, while wine is organic matter, the fat-soluble substance, volatile oil, alkali and other components in traditional Chinese medicine can be effectively precipitated to maximize the efficacy, especially the drugs used to treat rheumatism. Do not choose Qujiu, except beer or red wine. All drinking wines, such as liquor or yellow wine, can be used for medicine. The higher the alcohol level, the faster the dissolution of the drug. If the drug does not contain special mineral drugs, or the liquor is not used for the treatment of gynecological diseases with rice wine bubbles, it is generally estimated that 7 ~ Drinking in 10 days. Different wines have little impact on the efficacy. Generally, you can select the alcohol level and smell based on your preferences. For low-alcohol users, you can choose low-alcohol drinks of about 38 degrees. For large-alcohol users, you can choose high-alcohol drinks of about 52 degrees. Generally, Qujiu is not selected because it is made up of Qujiu. The Qujiu flavor it contains will be mixed with the smell of drugs to produce a strange smell. The old white dry and yellow rice wine and Medicinal Herbs mixed with light smell. Gao Zhijun, a pharmacist from the Chinese herbal medicine Museum, said that if you are eager to drink medicinal liquor and have a small amount of alcohol, you can choose a high degree of liquor for soaking, soak, and then pour a proper amount of pure water to dilute the amount of medicinal liquor. At this time, there may be sediment in the medicinal liquor, but as long as it is not a float, it is a normal phenomenon, just do not worry about drinking. If you feel that the medicinal liquor tastes odd and unacceptable, you can put a proper amount of honey into the medicinal liquor like Andy Marat, or put brown sugar or ginger juice. These practices can make the medicinal liquor better drink and more refreshing. The "ingredients" of Liquor-making drugs cannot be free. What medicines are used and how many medicines are often self-claimed. Professor Hou reminded that before making medicinal liquor, consult Chinese medicine practitioners and Chinese pharmacists to avoid physical injury. When an individual chooses to soak in Chinese medicine, Chinese medicines with high toxicity such as maqianzi and Fuzi cannot be used as medicinal herbs for medicinal liquor. In addition to some "forbidden" Chinese medicines, the proportion of medicines and wines is also a matter of attention. Generally, the amount of alcohol should be three times that of medicines (except for drugs with a large expansion. Yao liquor best drink Hou shiliang reminder, people with high blood pressure, heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, diabetes, do not drink medicinal liquor; do not take medicinal liquor to the wine table and drink with friends, on the one hand, your medicinal liquor is not necessarily suitable for friends on the wine table, on the other hand, the amount of drinking on the wine table is easy to get out of control, while the medicinal liquor is similar to ordinary liquor, drinking too much is easy to unexpected. Because after liquor and medicine are mixed, the liquor strength will increase. If you can drink half a cup of wine at ordinary times, you can only take a sip of medicinal liquor. The best way for drug makers is to take out their own drinks when they eat at home. This not only achieves the purpose of health care, but also solves the problem. ginseng, medaka, clams, and other traditional Chinese medicine liquor brewed in Yin and zhuangyang the method of Medicated Liquor brewing and Yiji traditional Chinese medicine liquor has been in China for thousands of years, the "Internal Classic question" contains "the ancient sage makes the broth and the mash", and the "MASH" is the medicinal liquor used to cure the disease. Till now, medicinal liquor is still widely used. the medicinal liquor, also known as liquor, is a Chenming liquid preparation obtained by extracting medicinal materials from liquor. It is mostly used for internal use. A few are used for external use, and some are used for internal and external use. For flavor correction, Medicated Liquor also often adds a proper amount of sugar or honey. medicinal liquor can be prepared by cold, hot, wet, and reflux Hot Dip methods. This method is usually used for Cold Immersion. The medicinal materials and liquor are placed in a closed container, soaked at room temperature, stirred regularly, and soaked for more than 30 days. because the wine itself has the function of active blood and is easy to absorb and disperse, medicinal liquor is usually used for cold and dampness, and has the function of clearing wind, promoting blood circulation, and relieving pain. Common examples include shujinhuoluo liquor, hubee liquor, guogong liquor, three-half-medicinal liquor, and Feng's rheumatism distriping liquor (these are all included in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia ). This type of medicinal liquor is strictly prohibited for pregnant women, and even for external use, it is strictly prohibited to apply to the abdomen, so as to avoid miscarriage. In addition, alcohol is a good solvent, which can extract a high proportion of ingredients. It is used to soak medicinal liquor with valuable herbs for Nourishing Yin and kidney, and nourishing blood and solid essence. Common include ginseng wine, trigger wine, ginseng wine, etc. it is worth noting that all commercial medicinal liquor have fixed formulas, which comply with the theory of traditional Chinese medicine prescription. In this regard, people often do not pay enough attention to it. They often use Chinese medicines and soak medicinal liquor for drinking. unreasonable formula will lead to the loss of the original efficacy of medicinal liquor, which is useless for drinking, and serious problems may also cause poisoning. To soak your medicinal liquor, you should prescribe a prescription and add liquor according to a certain proportion under the guidance of a doctor or pharmacist. Generally, the liquor is between and ~. the alcohol content of liquor used for liquor immersion is generally 50 ~ 60%. Because it contains a high concentration of alcohol, it will stimulate the gastrointestinal tract, speed up the blood line, increase the burden on the heart, inhibit the secretion of thyroid hormone, etc, therefore, Medicated Liquor is not suitable for patients with hypertension, heart disease, gastric ulcer, bronchitis, and asthma. It is not suitable for children and pregnant women. In addition, you should avoid drinking medicinal liquor while taking other medicines. Li Shizhen said: "wine is beautiful. Drink less and blood, strong God to protect the cold, sorrow and prosperity, pain drink will hurt the God to consume blood, damage the stomach dead essence, phlegm and fire, the profit and loss of this thing and line. ." It can be seen that medicinal liquor is good, but must be moderately consumed, generally 2 ~ a day ~ 3 times, once 10 ~ 50 ml is recommended. Do not drink too much. Sun Siyi said: "Two or three doses of winter medicinal liquor, starting from the beginning of spring, this method is permanent, then a hundred diseases are not born ." It indicates that winter is the best time to drink medicinal liquor, especially for middle-aged and elderly people.
