Why is there moisture?
Moisture is formed every day due to various factors, which is a theoretical concept of traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the humid climate and meat-eating in nature are the sources of moisture, and excessive moisture is easy to hurt Yang. People think that humidity can be adjusted by diet and daily life.

The formula proportion meets the physical needs of modern people, and it is very serious from material selection to polishing. It is convenient to brew and can be used as a tea substitute for meals.

Diseases of human body come from internal qi.

First of all, moisture-the source of all evil.

Nowadays, people eat too much meat, the food they eat is polluted, they exercise less, their bodies are weak in yin and yang, they are wet and depressed, and their stools are abnormal. Why are there so few shaped stools? Chinese medicine believes that spleen deficiency leads to loose stool and China should eat whole grains. Now, meat is the main food. Many people feel a loss if they don't eat meat for a day. For a long time, it will hurt the spleen and stomach, transport dampness and hurt the spleen. Water and moisture cannot be completely transported and accumulated in the body. Therefore, irregular stool indicates spleen deficiency, which also indicates that there is moisture in the body. ?

Among the evils of wind, cold, summer heat, dampness, dryness and fire, TCM is most afraid of dampness. ?

Wet is the easiest to penetrate. Damp evil never fights alone, but always colludes with other evil spirits. Moisture becomes cold and wet when it meets cold, just like winter. If the climate is dry, no matter how cold it is, people can still accept it, but if the humidity is high, people will feel very uncomfortable. Winter in the south is more uncomfortable than winter in the north, because the humidity in the south is heavier and the cold and dampness attack people. When moisture is hot, it becomes wet, just like a sauna day in summer. It's hot and humid, which makes people breathless. It's obviously not as good as when the sun is shining and the climate is dry. When moisture meets the wind, it becomes rheumatism, which is easy to drive away the wind, but once it becomes rheumatism, it is often a chronic disease that cannot be cured for a while. When moisture is under the skin, it will form obesity, which is also a difficult health problem to deal with. ...

Why are the diseases of modern people so complicated and difficult to treat? Because the body is wet, the pathogens outside the body are always intertwined with the moisture inside the body! Sichuan cuisine, which used to be popular only in southwest China, has now become popular all over the country? It's because Sichuan flavor is spicy. In the past, only people living in the southwest with heavy dampness and evil need to use it to dissolve the moisture in their bodies. Now there is moisture all over the country, and everyone needs spicy food to solve it, so everyone instinctively falls in love with Sichuan food.
