After the hibernation, many people have begun to get rid of dampness, remember to do these 3 things, easy to get rid of dampness more healthy!

After a few years of various experts and health media popularization, I believe that you more or less set up a health concept: all evil wet for the first, wet to eliminate all diseases. In short, many people see "wet" this thing, think like sending the plague like this thing from the body out.

However, a lot of crazy turn, by some self-media blind copy of the information, there are a lot of one-flavored encouragement to dispel dampness, dehumidification, detoxification, as if this thing is like a pool of water, simple and rough, but there is no chapter and verse, only so that we can see the "benefits", but never mention the simultaneous existence of the "disadvantages", "disadvantages", "disadvantages", "disadvantages", "disadvantages", "disadvantages", and "disadvantages". "The only thing we can see are the advantages, but we don't talk about the disadvantages and the contraindications.

Looking at more and more people start to this camp, I think at this moment, pouring a few pots of cold water is very necessary.

I believe that all of you who are busy doing your homework to get rid of dampness, have been or are holding its thighs. Even the nutritional white, also heard of the efficacy of this thing.

But there are a lot of people in the drink a period of time after the red bean barley water, dry eyes, dry nose, dry mouth, dry throat, diarrhea and so on "side effects", and even worse skin, dry stools, menstruation less ......

Let's analyze. p> Let's analyze. The "red bean" in the formula is a thin, small and long "red bean", which can be used as a medicine.

Red beans

A number of works of traditional Chinese medicine, red beans can be water, swelling, for many of the diseases of water and moisture in the stop have a good effect. For example, Li Shizhen that it "line fluid, facilitate urination", to put it bluntly is the body of water if the operation is not smooth, or there is a "bad water" stagnation, as long as in the scope of application of the red beans, can be through the urinary, diuretic pathway back to normal.

And Job's tears this thing, Chinese medicine that it tastes sweet, light, cool, water seepage dampness, spleen and stop diarrhea. Similarly, Job's tears have a good effect on the edema caused by the internal stoppage of water and dampness, or the abdominal distension and unfavorable urination caused by the spleen deficiency and dampness.

To sum up, if the spleen and stomach are hot and humid, such as fear of heat, yellow and greasy tongue coating, teeth marks on the side of the tongue, oily skin and hair, edema of the arms and legs, and even pressed down with pits, etc., the appropriate amount of red beans and barley water can play a certain role, but the principle of the disease is to stop, and the problem is lifted on the stop.

Job's tears (Coix lacryma)

It is to see the above effects, coupled with the fact that these two are dual-use food and medicine, unlike those "serious medicinal herbs" that make people afraid, need a doctor's prescription to be able to rest assured that they can be taken, so many people think they are all good and no harm, and will not be eaten to eat bad! ......

In fact, the ancient writings of the herb, the opposite effect of the two were described in detail:

Generally speaking, the tendency of the red beans and barley are downward. While it can drain the body of stagnant water-dampness evils by way of diuresis, it also disturbs the body's precious yin fluids, which can easily be lost for nothing.

Improper use, drink up no end, or themselves have easy thirst, upset, insomnia, nasopharyngeal / mouth / tongue / skin dryness, short of urine, stool dry secret difficult to down and so on the lack of yin, and the kind of easy to starve, the body type of skinny dry, how to eat not fat spleen and stomach yin deficiency body, and then blind, overdose, and with the poisoning of their own no two ways about it.

In addition, if the spleen and stomach is cold, or is inclined to cold and wet body, single barley, or single drink red beans and barley water, this "light seepage of wet" downstream effect is very easy to fold the spleen Yang, affecting the normal transportation of nutrients, will also affect its process of elimination of dampness, so that dampness in the body to accumulate more lawlessness.

And pregnant women who use Job's tears, may also trigger premature labor. Even if now advocate the use of barley to fry a fried, so that it is not so cool, but also can not be barley itself easy to depletion of the nature of the fluid erased.

So, even if the red bean barley water is blown up to the sky, looks how harmless, if out of the "suitable" "appropriate amount" "moderation" principle, for you may become the body to add trouble to the scourge.

The popular method of eliminating dampness, in addition to red bean barley water, may be a lot of people will rely on exercise, sweating and steaming. What's more, they will go to engage in some such as fire therapy, supervision and moxibustion and other conditioning to sweat, seemingly eliminate dampness and detoxification.

Some people feel that a sweat, dripping wet, or even sweating like being rained on, it seems that the pesky dampness can follow a lot of run off, after all, are water.

But I don't know who has had such an experience: after a period of intense exercise to sweat, or frequent sweating, after doing fire therapy / chi moxibustion and other therapies, there will be palpitations and fatigue, dry mouth and tongue, dry skin, sweating more than the menstruation, menstruation reduction / menopause and so on, or more prone to colds than before, more frail, more afraid of the cold, more not to carry the cold.

Because in the Chinese medicine point of view, sweat is not simply by water, sodium chloride, urea, lactic acid, fatty acids and other liquid metabolic products. And after excessive sweating to get rid of all kinds of discomfort, in fact, is to open too much, and ultimately hurt the results of the essence of the exhaustion of gas.

First of all, the production of sweat, from the daily diet, breathing, sleep and other processes after the transformation of the nutritional essence, it is a very important component of the human body Yin fluid. The so-called "sweat and blood of the same source" "sweat for the heart of the liquid", enough to reflect the precious sweat.

Secondly, "Yang added to the yin is called sweat". That is to say, the process of sweating, not only need to be sufficient yin, blood as the material basis, but also need to be warm, steam, promote, as a source of power, so that the pores open, so that the fluid through the body surface, so as to realize the function of sweating.

To summarize, sweating is a physiological process that requires the body to have sufficient yin and yang, and then cooperate with each other. The opposite is true, and blindly and excessively relying on this type of approach, disregarding their own situation, and very violently letting themselves sweat to get rid of dampness, will only lead to the loss of yin and yang.

The body is weak, thin, easy to catch a cold, or often stay up late, poor sleep, long-term labor, brain overload, here especially to give you a wake-up call.

Doing this homework to get rid of dampness probably know that the source and the main contradiction of dampness, phlegm and wetness are difficult to eliminate in the spleen and stomach. The problem of transportation, the discharge of the discharge can not go out, naturally, the external evil is difficult to block, the internal ghosts are born.

I advocate, "control the mouth," "do not mess with" "appropriate movement" of the three principles, is a reliable method of strengthening the spleen to eliminate dampness and phlegm, men and women, young and old are applicable, do not believe that you see:

control the mouth

"control the mouth", is the "Yellow Emperor's Classic of Nei Jing," the "food and drink in moderation. Not only should you be careful in what you eat, you should also be careful in what you drink.

This is not only to take care of the spleen and stomach, and nourish this main system of water and moisture transportation, but also to try to avoid the phlegm and dampness of the evil from the mouth. These foods are low in temperature and tend to inhibit the function of the spleen and stomach, and are harder to digest, which in turn induces stagnation of the spleen and stomach.

Cold: First, the entrance temperature is lower than the body temperature of the food, such as chilled watermelon, cold beer, just out of the refrigerator food, etc.; Second, it refers to the nature of the cold things, such as dragon fruit, kiwi, strawberries, pears, pears, maidenhair fruit, a variety of melons and so on.

Sticky: ① refers to dumplings, dumplings, dumplings, eight treasures rice, sticky bean buns, donkey rolls, etc. "sticky food"; ② refers to the nature of the more viscous nourishing things, such as Colla Corii Asini, deer glue, sea cucumbers, ripe ground. It is difficult to digest, and can easily lead to gastrointestinal stagnation, phlegm and dampness.

Stagnation: easy to cause some people stagnant gas, hiccups, bloating food, such as sweet potatoes, taro, chestnuts, coarse grains and miscellaneous grains, dead flour cakes. If digestion is particularly poor, itself has a food accumulation, or people with peptic ulcers, chronic gastritis, very not recommended to eat this kind of food.

Fat: meaning fat and greasy, not only refers to our conventional sense of meat, offal, animal head and hooves, but also includes: ① deep-fried, pan-fried and grilled food, not limited to doughnuts, fried cake, fried chicken, kebabs, etc.; ② high fat-containing food, such as all kinds of nuts; ③ high animal protein content of food, such as gum, deer glue, sea cucumber, abalone, flower glue, hoof tendons.

Gan: specifically refers to food with extra sugar added during processing, such as all kinds of snacks, chocolates, candies, fruit juices, sodas, milk tea and so on.

Thick taste: refers to food flavoring is too heavy, home cooking or not, eating out also, there will always be people who think "mouth light" "not enough taste" and eat too sweet, too spicy, too salty, too sour, too oily ...... also include too much monosodium glutamate (MSG), chicken essence, or other flavor enhancers to increase the flavor of the seasoning of the "over-fresh". Long-term heavy taste easily lead to visceral imbalance, exhaustion of the spleen and stomach essence, phlegm and wetness are also more likely to accumulate.

You can take a screenshot of the collection and slowly experience and practice. I said "moderation" or "avoidance" also, meaning not a stick to death, completely can not eat, but let everyone according to their own respective physical condition to decide to eat or not, eat how much, eat how long.

In addition, I would like to talk to you about drinking water.

In the concept of Chinese medicine, there is not only food accumulation, but also "accumulation of drink". This "drink" is a specific manifestation of your hatred of moisture, dampness, which is caused by the water can not be transported, the pathological stagnation in the body, which is also known as "water stagnation for drink, drink condensation into phlegm.

The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine makes it very clear that drinking water to the stomach, as with food, requires the organs to cooperate, consume the essence, and complete the elimination, transportation, absorption, and excretion of a whole set of processes. It is not that the water you drink in, you can directly hydrate the body.

But if you drink too much water, don't thirst for strong drink, such as regardless of the physical and dietary conditions to engage in 8 glasses of water a day, the morning of the fierce pouring of a large glass of water, to the point of forcing themselves to drink water and so on the so-called "detoxification", "elimination of disease" behavior, the creation of the problem is more than just the growing weight of the humidity is so simple.

With a sense of proportion and dietary restraint, we can fill our stomachs, quench our thirst, and enjoy delicious food while allowing our bodies and minds to be nourished by our diets, rather than by the diets themselves and by our bad habits.

No messing around

"No messing around" is a very important point to emphasize. This is not only for those daily bad habits that "humidify" the body, but also includes the need to be careful in dealing with dampness.

First, let's talk about the bad habits that "humidify" the body, including but not limited to:

The last two points above are singled out. Bad moods or excessive thinking can directly or indirectly affect the functioning of the spleen and stomach and even the whole body's qi, affecting the functioning of water and dampness and the process of elimination.

Dampness is like computer garbage, to make it less, clean up is critical, but it is important to do a point, is to minimize or avoid letting the garbage produce a variety of possibilities. Otherwise, even if the cleanup is diligent, in clothing, food, housing and transportation, emotional and psychological aspects did not go to improve, according to the pouring gourd up the ladybird, can not see a particularly obvious change, waste of effort but also a blow to confidence.

The second thing to say is "don't mess around", is to remind everyone that this is a matter of getting rid of dampness, there are differences in the situation of each person, there are differences in the body, and the method of getting rid of dampness is also different.

Take the red bean barley water, we also mentioned before, the body bias wet hot people can be used in moderation. For those who have cold and dampness but a solid constitution and no Yin deficiency or blood loss, they need to be supplemented with a small amount of dried ginger to balance the cold while warming and revitalizing the yang energy of the spleen and stomach, but again, long-term use is not recommended as it will eventually deplete the yin fluid.

Move appropriately

"Move appropriately" does not only mean to do moderate and appropriate amount of physical exercise, but also means to strengthen the spleen and stomach through some simple gongfu to unimpeded qi and blood, and the internal transmission of the body to flow up.

First of all, proper exercise to achieve moderate sweating can indeed dispel dampness, but also invigorate yang qi and strengthen the spleen and stomach. For people who lack exercise, are often sedentary, and like to stay in the house, this really works much better than eating and drinking to get rid of dampness.

Exercise, in addition to jogging, walking, brisk walking, jumping rope and other conventional, gentle exercise, eight brocade, taijiquan, five bird play and so on for the elimination of dampness, dredge the meridians, to guide the qi and blood is also very effective. The simplest, we can focus on daily practice of the eight brocade in the "two hands to the sky in the Sanjiao" and "regulating the spleen and stomach must be a single lift" two style.

No matter what you do, it's good to get moving and do it when the sun is shining, so don't worry too much about the length of time, as the body is slightly hot, slightly sweaty, and you don't feel tired. But it is not recommended that you run to the gym to sweat.

For those who are busy and don't have time to do exercise, or those who feel they can't spare the time for specialized exercise, it is recommended to refer to the idea of "Active Ten" in the sports rehabilitation circle. For example, if you take 10,000 steps and turn it into 10 minutes of walking, you can split the exercise into smaller pieces and keep it moderately active at multiple times of the day, which is not easy to cause sports injuries and is easier to stick to.

As for the simple techniques to strengthen the spleen and stomach, and to smooth out the flow of qi and blood, I would like to introduce one of the simplest, which combines tonicity and unblocking of the middle jiao in a single exercise - Mo Abdomen.

Both hands rubbed hot, overlapping on the stomach, palm to their Shen Que point (navel). With moderate, deep strength, to the Shen Que point as the center of the first clockwise, then counterclockwise kneading the abdomen, each 36, menstruation, prenatal and post-pregnancy is not recommended to do.

There is no method of removing dampness that can be used once and for all, once and for all, for everyone. Set up the right thinking, develop good habits, in fact, far more than the hand clutching a bunch of methods to try to try to be much stronger.
