Try to practice yoga in sunny days, and don't practice outdoors in rainy and foggy days.

Brushing your teeth after getting up is like vomiting. It feels very comfortable and there is always something in your throat. The feeling of being a lesbian, even if there is spit, is only a little bit. I can't spit it out. This symptom also indicates that there is moisture in the body.

(2) Look at the tongue coating

A healthy person's tongue should be light and moist. If the tongue coating is white and thick, it looks as if it has just drunk milk, indicating that there is cold and dampness in the body. If the tongue coating is a little yellow and looks greasy and rough, it means that you have damp heat in your body.

(3) See appetite

When it's time to eat, don't feel hungry and don't want to eat anything? I feel bloated after eating a little food, and I feel faint nausea when eating, as if the food went up by itself. Most people's appetite and digestive function will decrease in the hot and humid environment in summer. However, some people are very hungry, but they will feel full immediately after eating, which is a sign of strong stomach and weak spleen, and also a symptom of spleen dampness.

(4) Observe the defecation.

Is it stuck to the toilet? A box of water can't be washed clean. If it is not convenient to observe the toilet, you can also observe the toilet paper. If it is normal, one or two pieces of paper will be enough. If you wipe three or five pieces of paper repeatedly, it also means that your body is wet. In addition, the color and shape of stool can also help to judge whether there is moisture in the body. Normal stool is golden banana-shaped, and few people have this kind of healthy stool now. When the body is wet, the stool will be blue and shapeless, and the loose stool will be wet in the body for a long time.

(5) Seeing the feeling when getting up

If you feel particularly tired every morning, your hair is faint, you can't get up, or you are as listless as wearing wet clothes and people are too lazy to move, then you can be sure that you are wet inside.
