Patient's question:
It's my family member who has had a cold for several days and the condition is still quite severe. It seems like there is some today. I want to make white radish stewed ribs. Can I eat it when I have a cold and phlegm?Doctor's answer:
During a cold, the body's resistance may rise again, so nutrition must be balanced to aid digestion and enhance the body's ability. Vegetables like radish and pork ribs, when used as medicinal ingredients, can achieve a cooling and detoxifying effect. It is appropriate to consume them in moderation, but not excessively. The most important thing during a cold is to rest more and drink plenty of warm fluids. A light diet is recommended, and maintaining a good sleep schedule is crucial—avoid overworking.
