When the viscera and yin and yang of the human body are out of balance, qi, blood and body fluid are out of balance, and phlegm-dampness is easy to form, it can be considered as phlegm-dampness constitution, which is more common in today's obese people or those who are thin and overweight. People with this constitution often show obesity, fat and soft abdomen, greasy facial skin, sweaty and sticky, chest tightness, excessive phlegm, pale yellow and dark complexion, slightly floating eyes, easy drowsiness, usually fat tongue, white or sweet tongue coating, uncomfortable weight, like to eat fatty meat and sweet food, normal or unreal stool, and little or mixed urine.

Phlegm-dampness stagnation is mainly manifested as physical obesity, abdominal distension, sticky and greasy mouth. Most favored by the disease of the rich, broad-minded and fat are the biggest characteristics of this kind of people, with soft abdomen, greasy skin, sweating, swollen eyes and easy sleepiness.

Judging from the complexion, people with phlegm-dampness constitution are dull and dark, and some people are oily. Although there is no luster, the secreted oil will also appear glossy on their faces, which is also called turbidity, not moisturizing, while healthy skin is shiny and elastic.

People with phlegm-dampness constitution are particularly prone to drowsiness, doze off everywhere, and there is always phlegm in their throats. Gentle, steady, polite, open-minded and patient.

This kind of people have sticky stools, poor defecation or constipation and loose stools alternately. The population with yang deficiency constitution is light, and the population with phlegm-dampness constitution is sweet. When it comes to phlegm-dampness, we will mention yang deficiency and qi deficiency, which are related to the causes of phlegm-dampness constitution. The reason why phlegm-dampness accumulates too much in the body is that the function of the spleen and stomach is blocked and the spleen and stomach are the dominant qi. Therefore, in fact, most people with phlegm-dampness constitution have symptoms of qi deficiency, and even serious symptoms of yang deficiency and cold and dampness may appear.

First, it is not advisable to stay in a humid environment for a long time.

Attention should be paid to avoid the invasion of damp evil in rainy season. People with this constitution should also check their blood sugar, blood lipid and blood pressure regularly.

Second, sleepy people should gradually reduce their sleep time.

Do more outdoor activities to make your body active.

Third, take a bath and take a hot bath.

It is advisable to sweat properly; Dress as loosely as possible, and the fabric is mainly made of natural fibers such as cotton, hemp and silk, which is conducive to the evaporation of sweat and the elimination of moisture in the body.

The fourth is to keep warm.

Wet meets temperature, but coagulates when it meets cold. Cold weather is not conducive to the transport of water and dampness in the body, which often hurts the spleen and stomach, so the symptoms of phlegm-dampness constitution are more obvious when the weather is cold.

The focus of health care for people with phlegm-dampness constitution is to reduce phlegm-dampness in summer and winter. In summer, you should turn on the air conditioner less, wear cotton and linen silk, and bask in the sun properly. There is no need for tonic in autumn and winter. Meat, bones, animal viscera, ginseng, velvet antler, donkey-hide gelatin, jujube, fermented grains, prepared rehmannia root, autumn pear paste, old fire soup, walnuts and sesame seeds are hardly suitable for phlegm-dampness constitution unless there are obvious symptoms of qi deficiency and yang deficiency.
