2. "Is eating ginger at night worse than arsenic?"
According to TCM, during the day, yang energy is strong, and taking warm-tonifying medicines can help promote yang energy. At night, yin energy is strong, and if you consume too many warm foods, it can affect sleep and body metabolism, which is harmful to the body.
However, the body's constitution is divided into cold and heat. Those with excessive heat in their bodies will experience various symptoms of heat. They should not eat ginger whether it's day or night. They should consume more cool-natured foods. People who are cold-natured and feel cold can eat ginger at night to dispel coldness, so "eating ginger at night is worse than arsenic" is not correct.
