Nowadays, people pay more and more attention to their health, and the research on health preservation is getting deeper and deeper. Most people like to drink old skin water. Dried tangerine peel, which is a common orange peel in our life, is not a kind of garbage, but a very beneficial medicine in Chinese medicine. What are the benefits of soaking dried tangerine peel in water?

First, the treatment of cough Chinese medicine believes that dried tangerine peel has a good expectorant and antitussive effect on the human body. If you often cough and have a lot of phlegm, you can try soaking orange peel in water to alleviate the problem. Most people cough because the spleen function is too weak. Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae contains pectin, flavonoids and volatile oil, which can reduce the cholesterol contained in human serum and effectively treat cough. Secondly, dried tangerine peel can also make people have a better appetite. This is because drinking more water soaked in dried tangerine peel can stimulate the peristalsis of the stomach and quickly expel toxins and wastes from the body, thus reducing the accumulation of food in the stomach. If there is not much food in the stomach, people's appetite will get better. So if you feel that you often have no appetite, you can drink more old skin water.

Second, protect human lungs. Academician Zhong Nanshan's research team once found that dried tangerine peel can prevent and reduce harmful gases in the air, thus reducing lung inflammation caused by these harmful gases. In other words, dried tangerine peel can protect human lungs to some extent. In fact, dried tangerine peel can also help us improve the function of the spleen and stomach. If people's faces turn yellow in life, it is mostly because there is something wrong with the spleen and stomach. In this case, drinking more old skin water can improve the function of the spleen and stomach, alleviate the problems of the spleen and stomach, reduce the yellowing of people's faces and make people look better and better. If pregnant women have vomiting and nausea during pregnancy, they can also drink some old skin water to alleviate this situation. Old skin water can also increase the appetite of pregnant women and promote their absorption of nutrients.

It can be seen that soaking dried tangerine peel in water has many benefits, but it is not a matter of one or two days to achieve these effects, and it must be adhered to for a long time.
