Especially in recent years, the pace of life has accelerated, and many people don't pay much attention to health. Over time, the damp and cold gas accumulates, causing the body to have sticky stools, acne on the face, fatigue and drowsiness.
If moisture is not eliminated in time, it will even reduce the disease resistance of human body over time, which will lead to pathological changes.
Therefore, it is recommended that people with more moisture in their bodies master the dehumidification methods mentioned below.
1, adjust the diet structure
Because the main reason for the accumulation of moisture in the body is the intake of too many cold foods, so if you want to remove moisture, you need to carry out targeted actions. First, change bad eating habits and eat more foods with dampness-removing effects, such as red beans and barley.
Because from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, red beans have the effects of tonifying lung, clearing away heat, strengthening spleen and nourishing stomach, especially when combined with coix seed, which can get rid of cold and dampness in the body.
But it needs to be reminded that both red beans and coix seed are cold medicines. If you soak them in water, you'd better fry them with a small fire first, so as not to be counterproductive.
Step 2 soak your feet
Speaking of eliminating dampness and dispelling cold, why do you want to soak your feet more? Mainly because there are more acupoints on the soles of the feet. If you insist on soaking your feet, you can stimulate acupoint acceleration, blood circulation and metabolism.
Of course, if you want to get twice the result with half the effort, you can also add Artemisia argyi or ginger to the foot bath water.
Because Folium Artemisiae Argyi is a kind of commonly used Chinese herbal medicine with high safety, it can be taken orally and externally, and has the functions of dispelling cold, removing dampness, diminishing inflammation and sterilizing, while ginger is warm and can also achieve the effect of keeping warm, so the cold and moisture in the body will also be discharged from the body.
3. Moderate exercise
Exercise brings many benefits to human body, besides promoting gastrointestinal peristalsis and enhancing disease resistance, it can also achieve the effect of dispelling cold and dampness, especially in hot summer, when human pores are open.
Stay in an air-conditioned room for a long time, and the wet and cold air will invade. In this case, I suggest you exercise for about half an hour every morning and evening. With the excretion of sweat, damp and cold qi can also be excreted.
However, I need to remind you that after the exercise, don't take a bath with cold water directly, or the moisture will come in again.
4. Cupping or scraping
Speaking of cupping and scrapping, I think everyone is familiar with it. There are many benefits that you often do, including removing moisture.
Of course, for those who have never cupped before, it is recommended to use a smaller jar to reduce the irritation to the skin.
In fact, scraping the back is mainly to increase the activity of capillaries, so as to achieve the effect of heat dissipation and dampness removal.
In short, when the moisture in the body accumulates, it will really affect the body, ranging from physical fatigue to thick and greasy tongue coating, to fatigue and lethargy, and even cause organ lesions over time.
Therefore, when you have symptoms of heavy humidity, you must pay attention to it. It is best to adopt the four methods mentioned above and stick to it for a period of time, which may achieve the ideal dehumidification effect.
