Chicory tea itself has the effects of disinfection, clearing heat, diuresis and anti-inflammation, and can also eliminate excessive internal heat and inflammation and reduce uric acid in urine. Among them, cichoric acid is usually used as a medicine to treat gout. However, cichoric acid is a high molecular substance extracted from chicory, which can't replace chicory tea. In addition to cichoric acid, other ingredients are added to the drugs for treating gout. These drugs complement each other and interact with each other, thus playing a role in treating gout.
Therefore, a cup of brewed chrysanthemum tea only has the efficacy of disinfection, clearing heat and diuresis, and cannot be used as a drug for treating gout. Therefore, as long as it is not caused by high uric acid and diseases, you can drink chicory tea to reduce fire and diuresis without ventilation. If it is caused by a disease, you should go to a regular hospital for treatment, not by drinking chicory tea.
Chicory tea was once used to enhance the metabolism of high uric acid in the "Thousand Golden Prescriptions" left by the ancients, but metabolism refers to the excretion of high uric acid in the body and will not cure gout.
Therefore, this kind of health tea mainly plays the role of preventing and treating diseases. Drinking more alcohol in spring is helpful to uric acid excretion and increase the normal metabolism of the body. If you already have gout, it is still recommended to go to the hospital for formal treatment.
Also, this kind of tea can't be drunk for long. Generally, you should stop drinking for a period of time after three months, because the body will develop resistance to a substance for a long time. If you take it for too long, I wonder if there will be any side effects.
