What if you don't have this antipyretic and Chinese medicine? I'll introduce you to a simple prescription. Prepare three or four onions first, then prepare brown sugar and cut ginger into ten pieces. At the same time, if you have coix seed at home, put these medicines together and boil water to drink. In traditional Chinese medicine, green onions have the functions of sweating and relieving exterior syndrome, dispelling cold and activating yang, and ginger has the same function. Brown sugar can not only supplement calories, but also supplement human physical strength. Coix seed has the functions of clearing heat, promoting diuresis and strengthening the spleen. In this case, it can not only play the role of sweating, but also supplement water and heat. But the most important thing is to drink plenty of water, ensure adequate sleep, and make the human immunity reach a best and best state, which is conducive to eliminating viruses in the body and promoting the recovery of patients.
