【Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Asthma, Avoid Eating Radish】

Radish is cool in nature, spicy and sweet in taste, and can clear heat, resolve phlegm, and generate body fluids.

Due to its cool nature, it is best for those with mainly weak cold symptoms of cough and asthma (white phlegm, thin or foamy phlegm) not to eat radish. If the constitution is weak, eating cold food will definitely worsen the condition and may even induce acute asthma attacks.

In addition, patients with chronic bronchitis, asthma, and other diseases often have a long course of illness and a constitution characterized by "spleen and kidney deficiency." Therefore, they are not suitable for eating radish to resolve phlegm.

Of course, even during the acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, when there is a lot of yellow and sticky phlegm, radish can still be used as an auxiliary treatment.
