As the saying goes, a thousand colds are easier than a wet cold. Scientific dehumidification is very important.
The first is moisture and its source. Traditional Chinese medicine divides dampness into two types, external dampness and internal dampness. External dampness, that is, external dampness invades the human body, such as getting caught in the rain or living in a cold and humid environment for a long time; Internal dampness is due to abnormal transportation of spleen, which leads to dysfunction of viscera and abnormal metabolism.
Whether it is wet inside or outside, moisture is like an unexpected villain who rushes into the body without saying hello. When it is discovered, it will often invade for a long time, just like "rooting for friends", which makes the body suitable for the growth of diseases for a while, so there are sayings such as "one wet is hard to get rid of" and "wet is the source of all diseases".
There are many clinical manifestations of wet weight, such as large belly, easy drowsiness, heavy body, frequent greasy hair, edema of face and eyes, hypertrophy of tongue, sticky phlegm in mouth, white greasy tongue coating, irritability, loss of appetite, bitter taste, difficulty in sweating, yellow skin and red eyes. These phenomena may be a signal of heavy moisture in the body.
External dampness is mostly caused by environmental factors, while internal dampness is related to lifestyle and eating habits, such as long-term inactivity, overeating or dieting to lose weight, love to eat spicy and greasy food, and preference for cold drinks in summer.
To solve the problem, we must first find the source of the problem. The easiest way to get rid of dampness is to nurse the spleen and stomach. For example, when I came home one day, I found that the faucet at home was not turned off and the water flowed to the ground. Do you choose to clean up the spilled water or turn off the tap first? Most people will choose the latter, only in this way can we solve the problem of flooding from the root, and it is also a truth to raise the spleen and stomach first.
Want to get rid of dampness, daily health prevention is the key. You can check yourself according to your living habits and make daily prevention and improvement.
Scientific methods of eliminating dampness are very simple, such as refusing cold drinks, forming the habit of going to bed early and getting up early, keeping a happy mood, not being affected by emotions, improving immunity, keeping the body in a healthy state all the time, and not giving moisture an opportunity to invade. The scientific method of eliminating dampness is a lifelong matter. You can't fish for three days and dry the net for two days. You have to understand the truth that it is not drugs that really guarantee health fundamentally, but deliberate changes to unhealthy lifestyles.
Cold drinks, ice cream and other foods with their own coolness enter the stomach, leading to yang leakage, and the cool wind blown out by air conditioners will invade the body, causing the body to get colder and colder, and the spleen will be trapped by cold and dampness. It is recommended to eat less ice cream cold drinks and blow less air conditioning cold air.
Hot pot, barbecue, mala Tang and other spicy and greasy food, accompanied by beer, these foods hurt the spleen and stomach, and can be eaten occasionally. It is recommended not to eat it often.
Sedentary people, the biggest exercise every day is to walk from home to the subway station or bus station, or garage. It is mentioned in Huangdi Neijing that sitting for a long time hurts the meat. It is suggested that some time should be set aside for proper exercise every day, especially when many people are isolated at home, and good exercise habits should be maintained.
There are still some people who always have a lot of things hidden in their hearts, and they are cranky and anxious every day. Chinese medicine believes that thinking hurts the spleen, and if you think too much every day, it is also a kind of torture to the spleen and stomach.
