Chinese medicine believes that "the spleen opens its mouth and the beauty lies in the lips", which means that the temper is healthy and the lips are naturally ruddy and shiny. Therefore, strengthening the spleen is the key to prevent chapped lips. Yam is a kind of spleen-strengthening food that is not dry or greasy. Cooking porridge with japonica rice or glutinous rice that also strengthens the spleen will definitely lead to rosy complexion and full lips.
The method is simple. Wash and peel the yam, cut it into small dices, soak it in clear water for a while (to prevent oxidation and blackening), then wash the japonica rice or glutinous rice, put it in a pot, add a proper amount of clear water, add the yam diced and red dates after boiling with high fire, and then boil it with low fire.
2. Let your lips wet your diet.
1, drink plenty of water
It is also important to replenish body water in time. Under normal circumstances, the daily water intake should be 1500-2000ml. Office workers who sit in front of the computer for a long time are more affected by radiation, so they should add more water to themselves.
But the way to replenish water is worth noting. It is not suitable for "flushing irrigation", and the amount of drinking water should be controlled at about 200 ml each time.
2, vitamin supplements
Vitamin deficiency is easy to occur in winter, and the health of lip mucosal cells is closely related to vitamins. Eating more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins and taking tablets containing vitamins A, B and C in moderation can improve dull lips.
In the cold and dry winter, delicate lips need the nourishment of vitamin C and vitamin B2. You can eat more eggs, dried fruits, beans, fresh vegetables and fruits in winter, which are rich in vitamin C and vitamin B2. Cucumber, eggplant, pear, radish, banana, apple, etc. They are all good products for moistening dryness in winter, so you might as well eat them instead.

Try to eat less irritating foods such as onions and garlic and drink less, because alcohol will accelerate the evaporation of water in the body.
Need to be reminded that there are many fresh oranges in the market in winter, but don't eat too many oranges, because oranges are fragrant and warm fruits, and eating too much will easily get angry and make your lips drier.
