Treatment of cold hands and feet with orange peel

Japanese scientists have found that hesperidin extracted from orange peel, added to drinking water, can significantly improve the phenomenon of cold hands and feet of women. In the experiment, the researchers asked 10 women with cold hands and feet to drink hesperidin water and 10 patients to drink pure water. After two hours, let them soak their hands in cold water 1 min, and then test the recovery of blood flow and temperature.

The results showed that the hand temperature of a group of people who drank pure water did not recover after 40 minutes, while the hand temperature of a group of people who drank hesperidin water could recover to the temperature before cold water immersion in 30 to 35 minutes, and the blood flow of fingertip capillaries was obviously improved. It is a common phenomenon that some people always feel cold hands and feet in winter. This is mainly because the natural temperature drops, the yang is insufficient, the human body itself is also insufficient, and the body appears yang deficiency.

In addition, due to the cold weather, the ability of vasoconstriction and blood return will be weakened, which will make the blood circulation of hands and feet, especially fingertips, not smooth, which is often called "poor circulation of nerve endings", resulting in the feeling of cold hands and feet. This situation generally happens to women, especially women over middle age. Mental workers are more likely to have cold hands and feet than manual workers, but they are rare among healthy young men.

Cold can make people's whole body or local blood circulation poor, or blood circulation in limbs is blocked, which will lead to cold hands and feet. Cold hands and feet are often cold for a long time, which can be called "cold syndrome". Chinese medicine theory believes that this is a reaction of qi deficiency, qi stagnation and yang deficiency. Women are more likely to have cold hands and feet during special physiological periods such as menstruation, pregnancy and childbirth because of their weak body. If not prevented in time, it will lead to poor spirit, chills and severe varicose veins of lower limbs.
