How to maintain health and prevent excessive moisture?
China is a vast country, and summer is coming. Except for the scorching sun, it is rainy and rainy in many places. In summer, especially in the long summer, eliminating dampness is an important part of health preservation. This season is characterized by high temperature, rainy and humid, and the humidity in the air is the highest, so "wet" is the main gas in long summer.

Whether it is wet, hot or wet, there are both endogenous reasons and invasive factors, and many times, some neglected living habits will open the door for wet, or become the potential cause of breeding and aggravating wet, such as being greedy for cold in summer and so on.

First, don't be greedy in your diet.

Don't feel cold in your diet. People with weak spleen and stomach can eat food at room temperature.

If you are really afraid of heat, I suggest you eat more vegetables and fruits with the functions of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat, removing annoyance and detoxifying. Such as cucumber, bitter gourd, bitter vegetable, lettuce and so on. Whether it's cold or stir-fried. But when cooking, you must remember to add some isothermal seasoning of ginger and garlic to prevent overheating.

Second, don't be greedy when sleeping.

Due to the unbearable heat in summer, many people like to sleep with the air conditioner on and a mat on. But don't sleep on the mat for too long in summer, and the air conditioning temperature should not be too low. It is appropriate to sleep at 25/26, not to mention turning on the fan or low humidity air conditioning.

Third, learn to clear heat and relieve summer heat.

Summer is not only hot, but also full of thunderstorms. Hot and humid are the most prominent climate characteristics in summer. Invasion of damp-heat into human body or attack from inside and outside will lead to damp-heat diseases, such as vomiting, abdominal distension, abdominal pain and diarrhea.

Therefore, although we can't covet the cold in summer, it is necessary to clear away heat and damp properly. In order to clear away heat and relieve summer heat, in addition to avoiding outdoor exposure and long stay in the hot sun, air conditioners, fans and other cooling equipment can be used appropriately and reasonably.

If you feel heavy moisture in your body, you can mix some foods with your daily diet to remove moisture.

1, coix seed

Coix seed has a good effect of eliminating dampness. The common way to eat is to cook porridge with red beans, or stir-fry barley to make tea, or make it into powder for drinking, all of which are good methods.

2. purslane

Equisetum equisetum has the effects of clearing away heat, promoting diuresis, promoting blood circulation and reducing swelling, and is suitable for acute enteritis, dysentery, hematuria, urinary heat stranguria, jaundice, gingivitis and other diseases.

3. adzuki bean

Red beans have the effects of diuresis and detoxification, strengthening the heart and strengthening the spleen, and can effectively eliminate edema, expel toxins and eliminate moisture. Therefore, you can drink more red bean soup in summer, or cook it with barley, or add some red dates and lilies, but be careful not to add rice, which will affect the effect of eliminating dampness.

4. Mung beans

Mung bean has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials and diuresis, and is a good medicine for relieving summer heat. It can also effectively remove the moisture in the body and can be cooked into mung bean soup as a summer drink.

In short, although it is hot in summer, we should not be greedy for cold, so as not to affect the transport and transformation of spleen, so that water will be wet and endogenous, and it will be hot and humid for a long time. # Humidity # # Eliminating dampness #
