阿怒：EC，我最近失眠，也好煩躁，經常會勞氣，間中會有頭痛，眼睛更紅紅痛痛的。我是否每晚都要喝桂圓紅棗茶滋潤一下？
EC: I’ve been losing sleep and feel really irritable. Sometimes I would get a headache with red and painful eyes. Should I have a cup of Chinese red dates tea with longan meat every night?
勞氣到失眠？
桂圓及紅棗屬性溫熱，每天服用只會加重你目前的症狀。導致失眠的原因有很多，一定要分清楚才能對症下藥。不是隨便加些安神藥材就是保養。如你更有耳鳴、口苦、大便黏、沒有胃口的話，可能是因為肝火上擾心神導致失眠，反而要疏肝清熱安神。
假如你是阿怒的好眠茶：
材料：夏枯草10克、菊花3克、雞蛋花6克
做法：將材料洗淨，加入約800毫升水煮30分鐘，可連渣倒入保溫瓶，反覆沖泡。
功效：清肝瀉火，可舒緩因肝火引起的頭痛、眼痛、失眠等。
Losing sleep from being irritated?
Longan meat and Chinese red dates are both warm in nature. Consuming daily will likely worsen your symptoms.
