Patient's question:
I used to like ice cream a lot, but now it causes stomach and nose pain during my menstrual period. Sometimes the pain is quite severe. The doctor said this is cold-induced dysmenorrhea, so I'd like to ask about the difference between cold-induced and heat-induced dysmenorrhea?Doctor's answer:
Dragon fruit is cold in nature. Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that dragon fruit is cold in nature, sweet and sour in taste, and can clear heat, cool blood, promote diuresis, and relieve constipation. It contains vegetable protein, which can protect the stomach wall, detoxify, and purify; it also contains anthocyanins, which can clear free radicals, antioxidant, prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and prevent Alzheimer's disease; it contains dietary fiber, which can promote intestinal peristalsis, promote digestion, prevent constipation, and detoxify for beauty. Dragon fruit also contains iron, which can replenish iron, enhance hematopoietic function, and prevent iron deficiency anemia. However, dragon fruit is cool in nature and should not be eaten in excess; one per day is sufficient.
