Main methods of eliminating dampness:
1, food dryness-dampness toxin
The best ingredients for eliminating dampness are coix seed and adzuki bean (better than red beans). We recommend a prescription for eliminating dampness and detoxifying in traditional Chinese medicine. Coicis Semen, Semen Phaseoli, Folium Bambusae, Herba Portulacae, Flos Sophorae Immaturus, Semen Euryales and green tea are dried, boiled in water and served as tea. Drinking one or two cups of coix seed tea every day can dispel dampness and detoxify, whiten and lighten spots, and is effective for heavy moisture, beriberi and eczema. At present, there are finished coix seed tea on the market, which saves the trouble of self-making, but we should be optimistic about the ingredient list, and the effect of removing dampness by a single coix seed is not so good.
2. Eliminate moisture and toxins in life.
Acupoints * * *: Kneading Chengshan point, Yinlingquan point and Sanyinjiao point at ordinary times has a certain effect of eliminating dampness.
Exercise and perspiration: Proper exercise can enhance physical fitness, improve the body's disease resistance, help digestion, promote blood circulation, and thus prevent the generation of endogenous moisture.
Avoid catching a cold: usually eat less cold drinks, change clothes in time after getting wet, and blow dry immediately after washing your hair. Keep warm in cold weather to prevent cold air from entering the body.
Question 2: What should I do if the humidity is too high? 1. How can I tell if my body is wet?
1. Hair loves oil. 2. The face is shiny. 3. Leave saliva when sleeping (water will flow out when it is saturated). 4. The defecation is sticky (not easy to wash off) and there are many stools. 5. Small belly, big belly, 6. Ear dampness (ear Zen dampness), 7. * * * Wet.
2. How is wet formed?
For example: use shampoo when going out in the morning, use shampoo when sleeping at night, take a bath within 8 hours after scraping and cupping, take a bath after habitual exercise and sweating, scrape and cupping when taking a bath, and so on.
There is an old saying: "a thousand colds are easy to get rid of, but a wet cold is hard to get rid of." Wet and sticky, such as oil entering the surface. " The combination of dampness and cold is called cold dampness, heat is called damp heat, wind is called rheumatism, and summer is called summer dampness. Eating more tonics, more medicines, is like scratching your boots across the mountain and hitting a cow. Many people suffer from fatty liver, asthma, hypertension, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and even malignant tumors. In fact, these diseases are all related to dampness and phlegm.
(2) 【 Self-diagnosis of whether there is dampness in the body 】
When you get up-look at this feeling.
If you wake up every morning feeling particularly tired, dizzy, unable to get up, or as lethargic as wearing wet clothes, and people are too lazy to move … then you can be sure that you are wet inside.
When you go to the toilet-look at the stool
After the morning is convenient, you can observe the stool. 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. Three or five pieces of paper can't be wiped clean after repeated wiping. (This is also the reason why the stool should be asked on the consultation list. ) It also means that the body is wet. The color and shape of stool can also help to judge whether there is dampness 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 is blue, soft and shapeless. (This is an important sign of spleen deficiency, which many people have) There is always a feeling of uncleanness. After a long time, the toxins produced by defecation remain in the body, and all the diseases are serious.
When washing-look at the tongue coating
We usually start washing after going to the toilet. Before brushing our teeth, we might as well spend a few seconds looking at our tongue in the mirror. "Tongue is the seedling of the heart, and it is also a disease outside the spleen". Tongue can sensitively reflect our physical condition.
A healthy tongue is reddish and moist, with a layer of tongue coating, which is thin, white and quiet, moderately dry and wet, not slippery or dry. If the tongue can't reach these indicators, it means that there is something wrong with the body function. If the tongue coating is white and thick, it looks smooth, indicating that there is cold in the body; If the tongue coating is rough or thick and yellow and greasy, it means that there is damp heat in the body; If the tongue is red without coating, it means that the body is too hot to hurt the yin.
In addition to the above three points, there are two ways to distinguish:
Let's see if it's disgusting when we get up and brush our teeth in the morning. Many people say that when they brush their teeth, they vomit, which makes them sick. There is always a feeling of untidiness and uncleanness in their throats, even if they vomit only a little.
Second, get up in the morning and feel whether the calf is sour. These are also typical characteristics of damp evil. By the way, a wonderful way to get rid of dampness is to massage Chengshan point.
To remove the moisture in the body, the method is very simple, and only two "drugs" are needed. These two medicines can be eaten as tea and can solve big problems. They are barley and red beans. These two things, without any proportion, are caught one at a time, washed and boiled in a pot with water. After boiling, it is a good product for eliminating dampness and strengthening the spleen-glutinous rice and red bean porridge. ……
One advantage of glutinous rice red bean porridge is that it won't be sticky. Red beans and glutinous rice will always rot at the bottom, and the red soup will be on it. Most of the effective ingredients of glutinous rice and red beans are in the soup. Put more water when cooking porridge, and these soups will be enough for us to drink for half a day, just as tea …
Dampness is the root of all kinds of chronic incurable diseases in modern times, and Coix seed and red bean soup is a good medicine for treating dampness. The best one is to cook glutinous rice and red bean soup as tea. For patients who don't have this condition, I will let him cook porridge with barley and red beans as the staple food for dinner.
Never add rice to it! Why? Because rice grows in water and contains moisture, it is wet and sticky, so it thickens as soon as it is cooked. Red beans and coix seed are all dampness-removing, so they are not strong and the soup is very clear. Traditional Chinese medicine just uses its clarity to get rid of the dryness and dampness of the human body. Once rice is added, it is equivalent to adding water, so the whole porridge is thick. Although the taste may be better, it is not good for health, just because of that one ... >>
Question 3: Why is the human body wet? What if moisture is important? Exercise can relieve stress, activate the operation of body organs and accelerate the excretion of water.
Modern people use more brains, consume less physical strength, wait for a long time in a closed air-conditioned room, and seldom sweat, so the body's ability to adjust humidity becomes worse. Try running, walking, swimming, yoga, Tai Chi and other "breathe a little, sweat a little" exercises, which will help activate blood circulation and enhance water metabolism.
Gastrointestinal system is closely related to nutrition and water metabolism, and the best way is a reasonable and balanced diet.
Oily foods such as wine, milk, fat meat and thick taste are not easy to digest, which is easy to cause bloating and inflammation. Sweets and fried products will make the body produce peroxide, which will aggravate the inflammatory reaction. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that cold food, ice products or cool fruits and vegetables will make the digestion and absorption function of the stomach stagnate, and it is not suitable for eating. Such as lettuce salad, watermelon, Chinese cabbage, bitter gourd and so on. It is best to add onions and ginger in cooking to reduce the coldness of vegetables.
In addition, it is best to reduce exposure to humid environment in daily life. Especially for people who are sensitive to moisture, they should pay more attention to the following matters:
1. Don't sleep directly on the floor. The moisture in the air will drop, the floor will be wet, and it will easily invade the body, causing pain in the limbs. It is best to sleep in a bed at a certain distance from the floor.
2. Reduce going out in rainy days.
Don't wear wet clothes.
4. Water intake should be moderate.
Question 4: What should I do if my body is too wet? I usually pay more attention to my diet and eat less cold and spicy food. Red beans and coix seed can effectively eliminate dampness, and can be cooked into porridge or fried into powder for eating.
Question 5: The moisture in the body is too heavy. How to expel moisture toxins? Moisture is one of the six evils of wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness and fire. It is the bane of health and the inducement and accomplice of many diseases.
The typical feature of moisture is sticky, so the stool is thin and not easy to wash off, which is the most obvious feature of heavy moisture.
Heavy moisture is not only a problem that leads to the deformation of stool, but also a terrible thing is yet to come.
Chinese medicine believes that "moisture" can cause and aggravate many diseases. Many people suffer from fatty liver, asthma, obesity, hypertension, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, allergic rhinitis, pharyngitis, gynecological diseases and even malignant tumors. In fact, these diseases are all related to dampness.
The harm of moisture to people is hidden and slow, and it infringes on people's health step by step. At first, it causes thick and greasy tongue coating, rash and acne, and when it is heavier, it is chest tightness, fatigue, sore throat and irregular stool. Further development will lead to joint pain and obesity; Over time, it will also cause fatty liver, asthma, hypertension, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and even malignant tumors.
Degree of wet toxicity:
Primary wet toxin: in epidermis
Symptoms: itchy skin, eczema, greasy face and acne.
Secondary wet toxin: in muscle
Symptoms: acid, lethargy, fatigue, fatigue, such as shoulder and neck hypertrophy, acid lethargy, backache and fatigue.
Third-grade dampness toxin: in bone, that is, bone cold and dampness, commonly known as rheumatism.
Symptoms: scapulohumeral periarthritis, shoulder pain, cervical strain, low back pain, rheumatoid arthritis, weather joint pain.
Four-grade damp toxin: in viscera (uterus, ovary, spleen and stomach, lung)
Symptoms: weakness of spleen and stomach, constipation, excessive phlegm and gynecological inflammation.
Five-grade wet poison: cut it when it grows on the body (tumor), and cut it when it grows out.
Moisture will also greatly affect a person's appearance, which is manifested in long spots and acne on the skin, dark yellow and dull; In terms of body shape, it is edema, obesity and paunchy; Will appear listless, sleepy, and depressed.
Humidity is very common, and nine people are all wet. If you want to further accurately judge whether there is moisture in your body, please patiently complete the following six items:
1, loose stool, no shape, poor urination. (There is a problem with gastrointestinal excretion)
2, chest tightness, sputum in the throat (weak lung).
3, sleepy, listless, how to sleep enough. Feel dizzy and sleepy. (indicating qi deficiency and yang deficiency)
4, the weight is increasing year by year, obesity and edema. Thin people also have a small belly (indicating spleen deficiency, because spleen deficiency is the main cause of obesity).
5, abdominal distension, gastrointestinal discomfort, eating too much food will become food accumulation, paunch (gastrointestinal weakness)
6, functional decline, not interested in sexual intercourse, male impotence and premature ejaculation. (kidney deficiency)
Huangdi Neijing said: "All dampness belongs to the spleen", and moisture will first cause spleen deficiency, because the human body is an organic whole. After spleen deficiency, it will also cause stomach weakness, kidney deficiency, lung weakness, qi deficiency and gastrointestinal excretion problems, and the symptoms of moisture are precisely the reaction after the function of these important organs is weakened.
If you meet the symptoms of 1-2, you should get rid of dampness quickly. If you encounter many symptoms, it definitely means that your body is deteriorating and you need to get rid of dampness urgently. Otherwise, the difficult moisture will take away your beautiful life and leave you covered with problems.
For example, because I usually stay up late, my diet is irregular, I like to eat cold drinks and hot pot beer, and I always sit at work and lack exercise. After working for several years, my feeling is that I meet every symptom of moisture.
The famous prescription for eliminating dampness recommended by old Chinese medicine practitioners is red bean and coix seed yam porridge, which consists of six ingredients: red bean, coix seed (fried), yam, poria cocos, lotus seed and Redmi.
Red bean and barley yam porridge is the most classic and effective prescription to eliminate moisture. Compared with ormosia coix seed powder, it has four more ingredients, and the effect is stronger:
1) Red beans, diuretic, detumescence, nourishing blood and moistening skin.
2) Coix seed, often eaten, can maintain skin luster. The Compendium of Materia Medica records: "Spleen and stomach, lung heat, expelling wind and dampness".
3) Chinese yam: nourishing yin and tonifying kidney.
4) Poria cocos: it can not only strengthen the spleen, but also ooze moisture, nourish the heart and soothe the nerves. It has the effect of treating both the symptoms and root causes of diarrhea and leukorrhagia due to spleen deficiency, and can be used as an auxiliary drug for invigorating lung and spleen and treating qi deficiency.
5) Lotus seeds: clearing the heart and strengthening the spleen, nourishing the middle energizer, strengthening the spleen and appetizing, stopping diarrhea, benefiting the kidney and stopping leukorrhagia.
6) Redmi: The effect of lowering blood pressure and blood lipid can prevent colon cancer.
Note: When cooking porridge, you need to stir-fry the ingredients in the recipe with low fire for 15 minutes to remove the coldness of the raw materials, and then add water to cook together to achieve good dehumidification effect. And it must be matched with lotus seeds and poria cocos. It has been circulated ever since. Almost all people know how to drink porridge with red beans, poria cocos, coix seed, yam and lotus seeds, but they don't know the origin of this formula.
Later, with the increase of health knowledge, I made ...
Question 6: What should I do if the moisture in a man's body is too heavy? First, the performance of wet weight:

Five, you can also take the Chinese patent medicine "Muxiang Shunqi Pill" and take it according to the instructions. This medicine can dispel dampness, strengthen spleen and stomach.
Question 7: I am wet. What should I do? Whether you say "moisture" because the weather is hot and you are wet or "moisture" in Chinese medicine terms, the two are not the same thing.
The moisture mentioned by Chinese medicine should be symptomatic.
If it's not wet, find Chinese medicine! The doctor will comprehensively consider your pulse condition, tongue coating and your symptoms, and treat it according to syndrome differentiation.
Question 8: How to remove excess moisture in the body? 1 trick: the lazier you are, the more you should exercise.
Most people with heavy body moisture are people who eat greasy food and lack exercise. These people often feel heavy, weak and unwilling to move, but the less they like sports, the more water they accumulate in their bodies. Over time, it will inevitably lead to the invasion of moisture into the spleen and trigger a series of diseases.
Exercise can relieve stress, promote the operation of body organs and accelerate the excretion of water. Running, walking, swimming, yoga, Tai Chi and other sports help to activate blood circulation and increase water metabolism. The second measure: light and moderate diet.
The gastrointestinal system is related to nutrition and water metabolism, and the best way is a moderately balanced diet. Oily foods such as wine, milk, fat meat and thick taste are not easy to digest, which is easy to cause bloating and inflammation. Sweets and fried products will make the body produce peroxide, which will aggravate the inflammatory reaction.
Cold food, frozen products or cool fruits and vegetables will make the digestion and absorption function of the stomach stagnate, so it is not advisable to eat them often, such as lettuce, salad, watermelon, Chinese cabbage and bitter gourd. It is best to add onions and ginger when cooking to reduce the coldness of vegetables. Step 3: Avoid moisture in the environment.
In addition to the problem of self-metabolism, a large part of the water produced in our body is related to the environment. Often in a humid and cold environment, it is easy to cause moisture to invade the body.
Pay attention to the following matters in daily life: 1. Don't sleep directly on the floor. The floor is wet and easy to invade the body, causing limb pain. 2. Reduce going out in rainy days. Don't wear wet clothes, don't cover the quilt, and dry your body and hair after taking a shower. 4. If the indoor humidity is high, it is recommended to open more windows for ventilation. If the external humidity is also high, you can also turn on the fan and air conditioner to keep air convection with these appliances. The fourth measure: barley porridge, yam soup.
To remove moisture from the body, there are actually many foods we often eat that can play a role. For example, coix seed is sweet and slightly cold, which is beneficial to water swelling, spleen-strengthening and dampness-removing, tendons-relaxing and collaterals-activating, heat-clearing and pus-discharging; Red beans are flat, sweet and sour, and have the effects of strengthening the spleen to stop diarrhea, diuresis and detumescence. Barley and red beans boiled in water can induce diuresis, dehumidification and even beauty.
In addition, you can also choose red beans, poria cocos, yam, codonopsis pilosula and so on. And put it into soup, or make porridge and boil water to drink, which can diuresis and dehumidification, especially suitable for people with edema. It is worth noting that both methods have diuretic effect and are not suitable for people with excessive urine. The fifth measure: use onions, ginger and garlic skillfully.
Onion, ginger and garlic are not only common condiments at home, but also have irreplaceable medicinal value. For example, we can try to cook a bowl of hot ginger soup at home, and use the wonderful effect of ginger soup to force the water out of the body. After sweating all over, the symptoms will be relieved. This method is also suitable for preventing colds after getting wet.
