📝 Detailed Answer
It differs by prescription, but generally it is better to reduce cold food, fatty food and raw food. If digestion is burdened, the medicine is not well received either.
We recommend avoiding alcohol during the period of taking it. It burdens the liver and also makes judging the effect difficult.
Caffeine you may simply regulate so as not to be excessive.
And if you are taking other health supplements or products bought abroad alongside it, please tell us. There are cases where the ingredients overlap.
If a restriction is hard to keep, please tell us from the start. We adjust within what is realistically possible.
