At that time, I thought it was caused by the cold weather, but why do I feel heavy, tired, sweaty and fat in summer, especially after blowing the air conditioner?
In fact, this is because the body is too cold and wet, and if it is not removed for a day, it will raise tigers.
When we talk about cold and dampness, we must first mention Yang. The growth of all things depends on the irradiation of the sun, and Yang is the sun of the human body and the driving force of life. Su Wen Tian Rage said: "If the sun is Yang, if the sky and the sun lose their position, they will lose their lives."
Professor Wang Qi, a master of traditional Chinese medicine, divides people's physique into nine types, and Yang deficiency is one of them, which mainly refers to the physique state of Yang deficiency and cold deficiency.
Yang deficiency constitution is formed by congenital deficiency and acquired influence. Congenital deficiency is mainly due to weak parental endowment, or pregnancy at an advanced age, or insufficient fetal support of pregnant women; Unhealthy living habits of acquired factors, such as overeating, emotional injury and overwork, will also lead to the formation of yang deficiency constitution if they act on the human body for a long time.
As "Full Treatment of Pure Moon" said: "When yang deficiency occurs, too much worry will hurt the spirit, or fatigue will hurt the strength, or excessive greed will lead to qi failure, or deficiency of Yuan Yang will lead to wind-cold injury. It is all the cause of yang deficiency. " After the yang is damaged, if it is not nursed back to health in time, it will evolve into a physical state of yang deficiency over time.
Professor Wang Qi summarized the physical characteristics of yang deficiency from five aspects: morphological characteristics, common manifestations, psychological characteristics, onset tendency and adaptability to the external environment:
1. Morphological characteristics
The body is white and fat and the muscles are soft.
2. Common manifestations
Lack of energy, usually chills, pale face, pale lips, easy hair loss, easy sweating, tepid hands and feet, like hot food, excessive sleep, loose stool, long urine, pale tongue with teeth marks, tender and moist fur and delayed pulse.
3. Psychological characteristics
How quiet and introverted.
4. Incidence trend
The onset is mostly cold syndrome, or it is easy to change from cold to phlegm, swelling, diarrhea, impotence and dysmenorrhea.
5. Adaptability to external environment
Not cold and evil, summer and winter.
Then, how is the problem of yang deficiency and cold dampness formed?
Yang deficiency and cold and dampness are mutually causal. Physical fitness determines a person's susceptibility to a certain pathogenic factor and his tendency to produce pathological types.
The classification of cold and dampness belongs to yang deficiency constitution, which mainly comes from two aspects:
First, yang deficiency is easy to cause internal cold, and cold makes water wet;
Secondly, it is caused by cold and humid outside, hot summer weather, people often using air conditioners, not paying attention to keeping warm, staying up late, eating raw and cold food, etc. And the humidity is high in summer, which leads to the problem of wet and cold.
Cold and dampness can not only affect internal organs, but also involve local organs. For example, moisture can stay in internal organs or invade muscles and joints.
Cold dominates winter season, which is divided into two kinds, internal and external, and has different performances. Yin excess is cold, entering menstruation later, and cold is qi. However, dampness in summer is dominant, and there are also internal and external causes. Humidity is better than sunshine, sticky and greasy. It is characterized by suffering first when it is wet, which is actually related to the physical phenomena of water-based wetting and gravity.
How to know cold and dampness?
We can understand cold by analogy. For example, frozen water is cold condensation. Similarly, cold pathogen can make human blood stagnate. It is easy to sweat when it is hot, and it will stop when it is cold, which is related to the convergence of cold evil.
Wet comes from water, which can be vaporized into fog and turned into ice. It is liquid, sticky and wet, just like the water in the quilt, which can't evaporate. You will feel heavy and stuffy after covering it. If you stay in the body for a long time, it will accumulate into a disease.
How do you know that there is cold and dampness in your body? The following symptoms can be evaluated:
1. Headache, fatigue, drowsiness all day, cough with phlegm, abdominal pain and diarrhea, puffiness;
2. Cold hands and feet, wearing thick clothes will not help;
3. Joint fatigue, soreness, needle-like or wandering feeling;
4. The tongue coating is thick and greasy, and there are teeth marks on the edge of the tongue;
5. The waist and abdomen are cold, and women will have irregular menstruation;
6. There are spots, acne, recurrent oral ulcers and bad breath on the face.
Many people will wonder why they have paid great attention to the influence of the external environment, but why does the body show cold and dampness?
That's because the internal factors lead to the dysfunction of spleen and stomach in transporting water and dampness, which leads to internal dampness, such as improper diet, bad mood and weakness of spleen and stomach. If the yang is insufficient, it will produce internal cold.
So, how to save it?
Starting from the long summer, it is the best time to raise yang. "Cold is hot", when the temperature is high in summer and the human body is full of yang, the treatment method of warming yang and tonifying is given to remove the cold deposited in the body and regulate the yin and yang of the human body, such as moxibustion, foot bath and sunbathing.
Many people will ask whether the hot summer weather will "add fuel to the fire".
"In spring and summer, the yang is abundant outside and deficient inside, so it is advisable to supplement the yang with a warm yang diet." Chinese medicine has a treatment method of "guiding according to the situation" In fact, it is better to supplement the yang in summer with the help of the weather than in winter. Moreover, people like to blow air conditioners and eat cold food in summer. Eating too much will damage the yang.
There is a saying in Chinese medicine that "winter diseases are treated in summer and prevented early". If we make good use of summer to replenish yang and get rid of cold and dampness in the body, winter will be better.
At this time, you should drink a cup of authentic ginseng brown sugar ginger jujube tea, which is a very good dietotherapy method to warm yang, dispel cold and dampness. Its main mystery lies in its unique raw material formula.
As the saying goes: "Eating radish in winter and ginger in summer does not require a doctor to prescribe." Ginger is nicknamed "rejuvenation grass" and ginger soup is also called "rejuvenation soup".
China has a long tradition of eating ginger. In the Analects of Confucius, we can see that Confucius clearly put forward the idea of "don't eat ginger, don't eat more".
Su Dongpo described an 80-year-old monk in Jingci Temple, Qiantang, Hangzhou in Dongpo Miscellanies. "I have always believed in ginger for forty years, so I am not old." Su Dongpo's "Fitness Song" mentioned ginger for the first time: "A catty of ginger, half a catty of dates ... beauty will never grow old."
