During the day, there are yin and yang. Starting from midnight, the yang energy in nature gradually rises, and the yang energy is at its strongest at noon. Yang Qi gradually weakens in the afternoon, until midnight when Yang Qi is at its weakest and Yin Qi is at its strongest. After midnight, Yang Qi gradually recovers.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that nature and man are in harmony, and you should be more active during the day when Yang Qi is strong. Taking warm and tonic medicine can help Yang Qi grow, and you can eat appropriate positive (warm) foods. For example, ginger, etc. When the Yin Qi gradually becomes stronger at night, the Yang Qi will converge and will no longer be as excited as during the day.

If you consume too much warm food or supplements at this time, it will affect your sleep, affect your body's anabolism, be detrimental to the body's self-repair after fatigue, and be harmful to your body. Therefore, usually, it is beneficial to eat ginger during the day, but it is not advisable to eat ginger at night.

People with strong cold often feel cold or afraid of cold all over the body. If you can have ginger soup to drive away the cold at night, your body will be warm and you can sleep well. It is also suitable to eat more warm food at ordinary times. Therefore, the so-called "eating ginger at night is equivalent to eating arsenic" is not entirely accurate.

When using ginger to treat diseases, whether to remove the ginger skin depends on the specific situation.
