Sulfur smoked Chinese herbal medicines used to be the traditional method of Chinese herbal medicine processing. It is mainly used for pest control and moisture protection, facilitates the storage of medicinal materials, reduces the loss of medicinal materials, and can increase the color and luster. However, sulfur will generate sulphur dioxide after combustion, and it will easily remain in the herbs. Long-term use will damage the digestive tract and respiratory tract, as well as liver, kidney and other organs. Therefore, the State Food and Drug Administration in 2004 specifically banned the use of sulfur to smoke Chinese herbal medicines. However, many drug dealers still use this method illegally. So, how to distinguish sulfur smoked herbs?
The first is the smell, and all smoked ones have a pungent sour taste;
The second is to see that all herbs that are too bright or white must be vigilant;
The third is weighing, the Chinese herbal medicine after sulphur smoking is heavier than unsmoked;
The fourth is to taste, most of the "sulfur herbs" into the mouth can taste an unusual sour. (However, you must first ensure that the medicine itself is non-toxic.)
Codonopsis pilosula, Chinese angelica, chaenbei, yam, wolfberry, lotus seeds, lily, white fungus, white fungus and other insects and discoloration, is the most easily smoked by the unscrupulous commercial drug sulfur. Special attention should be paid when buying, if you do not use the best buy it, do not be afraid of waste and damage health.
