Corn silk has a diuretic effect, so overuse for too long will cause frequent urination, dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and poor absorption of some essential micronutrients for the body such as calcium and potassium. It is best to only drink corn silk water for about 10 days, then stop for about a week before continuing, to avoid electrolyte imbalance.
Corn silk water has the effect of lowering blood sugar. If a diabetic person takes medicine and drinks corn silk water at the same time, it will cause the blood sugar index to drop too low, which is very dangerous for health. Therefore, in case you are taking another medicine to treat a disease, you should not use corn silk tea together.
For people with hypoglycemia, corn silk water can aggravate symptoms such as palpitations, hand tremors and sweating. Therefore, people with hypoglycemia should avoid drinking this water. Corn silk can contain a certain amount of pollen, which can easily cause allergic reactions such as rashes and difficulty breathing. Those with a history of pollen allergies should avoid using it to ensure safety.
In addition, you should avoid using these diuretic drinks too much in the evening, which will make it difficult to sleep due to frequent urination at night. You can use about 20g of fresh corn silk every day, and 10g of dried corn silk.
