Patient's question:
I bought some rice wine and some fermented glutinous rice. Back then, I didn't know anything, so we just ate them together. But the taste wasn't very good, and I ended up having diarrhea a few times after eating. However, it would be a waste if we didn't eat them. I said, "Let's throw them away," but my wife couldn't bear to, and we didn't dare to eat them together again. What's the difference between rice wine and fermented glutinous rice?Doctor's answer:
Fermented rice wine, also known as "leaozao," is actually a type of rice wine, but its name varies due to differences in alcohol content. It is a traditional rice wine with a sweet and savory taste, deeply loved by the general public. However, there are still some differences between postpartum rice wine and fermented rice wine. After all, during the postpartum period, it is not advisable to consume overly stimulating foods. Therefore, postpartum rice wine is slightly lighter in flavor compared to traditional fermented rice wine.
