Ancient folk medicines(民間藥物) such as realgar(雄黃酒)are added to the food eaten on the Festival day. This is believed to prevent disease and to promote a healthy digestive system(消化器官). The drinking of realgar in wine supposedly relieves(解除) the effects of poisons accumulated in human bodies.
飲雄黃酒：雄黃本屬礦物， 含有三硫化砷成分，與酒混合。即成雄黃酒，用以驅蟲解五毒，小兒涂于頭額。耳鼻，手足心。 并灑墻壁問， 以法諸毒。流傳民間之《白蛇傳》故事，即是以雄黃酒解蛇虺諸毒，而現白蛇原形。此種習佰，在長江流域地區(qū)的人家很盛行。
