Method 1: The lazier you are, the more you should exercise.
Most people with heavy body moisture are people who eat greasy food and lack exercise. These people often feel heavy, weak and unwilling to move, but the less they like sports, the more water they accumulate in their bodies. Over time, it will inevitably lead to the invasion of moisture into the spleen and trigger a series of diseases. Exercise can relieve stress, promote the operation of body organs and accelerate the excretion of water. Running, walking, swimming, yoga, Tai Chi and other sports help to activate blood circulation and increase water metabolism. Method 2: The diet is light and moderate.
The gastrointestinal system is related to nutrition and water metabolism, and the best way is a moderately balanced diet. Oily foods such as wine, milk, fat meat and thick taste are not easy to digest, which is easy to cause bloating and inflammation. Sweets and fried products will make the body produce peroxide, which will aggravate the inflammatory reaction.
In terms of diet, if you eat cold food, frozen products or cool fruits and vegetables, it will make the digestion and absorption function of the stomach stagnate, so you should not eat it often, such as lettuce, salad, watermelon, Chinese cabbage and bitter gourd. It is best to add onions and ginger when cooking to reduce the coldness of vegetables.
Method 3: Avoid moisture in the environment.
In addition to the problem of self-metabolism, a large part of the water produced in our body is related to the environment. Often in a humid and cold environment, it is easy to cause moisture to invade the body.
Pay attention to the following matters in daily life.
1. Don't sleep directly on the floor. The floor is wet and easy to invade the body, causing limb pain. 2. Reduce going out in rainy days.
Don't wear wet clothes, don't cover the quilt, and dry your body and hair after taking a shower.
4. If the indoor humidity is high, it is recommended to open more windows for ventilation. If the external humidity is also high, you can also turn on the fan and air conditioner to keep air convection with these appliances.
Method 4: Use onions, ginger and garlic skillfully.
Onion, ginger and garlic are not only common condiments at home, but also have irreplaceable medicinal value. For example, we can try to cook a bowl of hot ginger soup at home, and use the wonderful effect of ginger soup to force the water out of the body. After sweating all over, the symptoms will be relieved. This method is also suitable for preventing colds after getting wet.
Method 5: Coix seed cooks porridge and yam cooks soup.
To remove moisture from the body, there are actually many foods we often eat that can play a role. For example, coix seed is sweet and slightly cold, which is beneficial to water swelling, spleen-strengthening and dampness-removing, tendons-relaxing and collaterals-activating, heat-clearing and pus-discharging; Red beans are flat, sweet and sour, and have the effects of strengthening the spleen to stop diarrhea, diuresis and detumescence. Barley and red beans boiled in water can induce diuresis, dehumidification and even beauty.
Chinese medicine teaches you to get rid of dampness.
But to really get rid of the moisture in the body, we should start from improving our living habits. Chinese medicine provides the following methods, so that you can easily get rid of the turbid and heavy moisture in your body and regain freshness.

The second measure is a light and moderate diet.
