I feel that when it comes to eliminating dampness, it corresponds to red bean glutinous rice porridge. In fact, many people don't know that glutinous rice is actually cold, especially pregnant women. But I think that some people like us are deficient in spleen and stomach, and this porridge is not worth the loss.
In my opinion, everything needs to be flexible. If you simply listen to other people's advice, it may not be the best for you ~
Red beans and coix seed are holy products for detoxification, and good products for eliminating dampness and strengthening spleen. Coix seed and red bean porridge can not only nourish the stomach, but also lose weight. It can dispel moisture in the body and eliminate edema caused by nephropathy. It is very suitable for women with heavy humidity in summer and autumn, but if they eat it often, they may not feel the effect. Maybe your cooking method is wrong. Let me explain it to you.
1. Red beans are wrong.
Red beans can satisfy hunger, but it is not conducive to water wet. Eating too much will lead to blood loss. Red beans are beneficial to the effect of water wetting, so red beans are used instead of red beans.
2. Coix seed is wrong
Coix seed has the function of eliminating dampness, but it belongs to cold food. Eating directly after cooking is not good for the spleen and stomach. You can cook coix seed before cooking, and the coldness of coix seed will be reduced.
3. The cooking method is wrong
We usually cook red beans and barley directly. We should soak them in water for about an hour first, so that all the nutrients will evaporate.
Traditional Chinese medicine divides the factors that lead to diseases into four categories: external causes, internal causes, pathological products and other reasons. The external cause is the exogenous six evils of TCM, namely wind, cold, dampness, dryness and fire. Among them, dampness has the closest relationship with spleen. This also shows that while eliminating dampness, we must regulate the spleen and stomach and strengthen the spleen at the same time.
There is a saying: "a thousand cold is easy to get rid of, but a wet one is difficult to get rid of." Wet and sticky, such as oil entering the surface ",indicating that water is very difficult to remove. No matter how much tonic you take, no matter how much medicine you take, it's like shooting a cow across the mountain.
People often say that red bean and barley porridge can get rid of dampness. The red beans here are "red beans", so be careful not to make a mistake. Still need to persist. It is suggested that people should also pay attention to strengthening the spleen when eating.
The accumulation of moisture is accumulated bit by bit, and it takes time to get rid of it, so eating two meals is not so obvious. After all, food does not belong to drug conditioning. We don't have a doctor's prescription, and there is no obvious effect of drugs. We need to stick to it for a long time. And in this process, we also need to have good work and rest and eating habits to avoid causing more harm to the body.
There are many ways to eliminate dampness, such as: red bean and barley porridge, related tea, cupping and so on. I believe many people also know that the key is to suit themselves, and what can make them persist is the best and most suitable for themselves.
Red bean and barley porridge has no effect of eliminating dampness. First, everyone's physique is different, and second, coix seed is cold, and it is impossible to dispel the cold by drinking soup or making powder every day.
Three strokes to eliminate dampness and poison massage can eliminate dampness and poison from these three parts.
1. The extreme spring point under the armpit can clear the poison of smoldering fire in the heart and can be massaged frequently.
2. When there are symptoms such as sore throat, discomfort in the mouth, oral ulcer, insomnia and dreaminess, you can pat the elbow socket for 5 to 10 minutes, and pat it once every 1 week.
3. Weizhong acupoint is located in the center of the knee fossa, and bladder meridian is the biggest channel for detoxification and dehumidification of human body. Shoot here for 5 to 10 minutes, once a week.
The best way to get rid of dampness is to use two kinds of medicine, epimedium and chrysanthemum. The medicinal value of Epimedium is very high. You can watch it on Baidu, but it's a little irritated. Just add a few chrysanthemums and soak it in boiling water. Epimedium can grab a handful of boiled water at a time and drink it for one day, even for a few days without water. I used to eat red bean barley for half a year, but I couldn't make chrysanthemum epimedium in three days.
If you want to get rid of dampness, red bean and barley porridge is a good choice. It has a powerful function of eliminating dampness, but unreasonable consumption will aggravate human moisture. Everyone has a different physical condition:
Some people are prone to sweating, hot annoyance, thirst and drinking cold water. Their palms and soles are often hot and their tongues are red. These people are people with "hot constitution".
Some people are prone to chills, their hands and feet are often cold, they like to drink warm water, their waist and knees are sore and their tongue coating is white and greasy. These people are "cold constitution" people.
Although coix seed has a good diuretic effect, its medicinal properties are cold and cool, which is not harmful to people with warm constitution, but for people with cold constitution, eating coix seed often is tantamount to adding insult to injury!
There are also "red beans" recommended by Chinese medicine, which are actually "red beans". There are differences between the two kinds of beans.
Ordinary red beans are chubby and round in appearance, which are mostly used for eating, while red beans are smaller and more slender. When taking medicine or cooking barley red bean porridge, the effect of diuresis and dampness removal is more obvious. Pay attention to distinguish between red beans and red beans when buying.
Red bean glutinous rice porridge does have the effect of eliminating dampness, but after all, it can't be food like medicine, and the amount of food eaten at a time is limited, of course, it won't feel much.
Traditional Chinese medicine says that the spleen governs the transport of water and dampness, and all water and fluid problems in our body are closely related to it, so we must strengthen the spleen to remove water and dampness.
In addition, modern people exercise less, eat more, stay up late, and have a lot of pressure, which will all cause the digestive function of the stomach to be blocked and the water metabolism to be unbalanced, which is also a major reason why they are always troubled by dampness.
How to get rid of moisture? You have to do this:
1. Exercise: at least 6000 steps a day to accelerate the excretion of water in the body. You can also choose brisk walking, swimming and gymnastics.
2. Diet: reduce the intake of alcohol, greasy, too sweet, too cold food is easy to cause the burden of the spleen and stomach, protect the function of the spleen and stomach, and the water-liquid metabolism can be normal.
3. Environment: keep the living environment dry and ventilated frequently; Dry the bedding frequently, keep the sweat smooth, dry your body and hair fully after taking a shower, and avoid the indoor air conditioning temperature being too low.
4. Put some spicy spices such as Amomum villosum, Amomum villosum and Zanthoxylum bungeanum when cooking to dry and warm the stomach.
5. Soak your feet with a dozen Sichuan peppers at night and bask in the sun.
6. You can also use any one of American ginseng, lotus leaf, Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria, Coicis Semen, lalang grass rhizome, etc. Make tea instead of drinking water.

It is a dietotherapy prescription and needs to be drunk for a long time.
Everyone's physique is different. If you want to recuperate, you should consult a professional doctor. You are good at medicine and dosage, so you can't eat it casually.
Once I asked my doctor, can dampness-removing tea and red bean and barley porridge be used in the market? He just smiled and said nothing. If public products can replace doctors' expectations, what is their value? Everything should be treated dialectically.
Some people have spleen dampness, and the collocation of targeted things should be measured according to your environmental habits, but I agree with the view that exercise can eliminate dampness. Don't blow the air conditioner too much, try not to eat frozen things, keep your spleen and stomach healthy, and keep a good mood without staying up late. At least it will be much better.
It is said that red bean barley porridge can dispel dampness, why does it feel invalid?
Healthy ascetic, let's talk!
Adzuki bean can eliminate edema, induce diuresis and detoxify, which is helpful to improve the detoxification function of the body; Coix seed can help strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness, which is the foundation of the day after tomorrow. Strengthening the spleen is the best way to eliminate dampness, and Coix seed can also induce diuresis to help eliminate edema. Coix seed and red bean are very classic combination for eliminating dampness. Why is the effect not so good?
Why is it not effective to eat red beans and barley to get rid of dampness?
1: Coix seed needs to be fried.
Coix seed is slightly cold, and some friends who are cold and wet in the body are not suitable for directly cooking Coix seed. If you have time, stir-fry Coix seed as much as possible. The coldness of Coix seed can be well removed by cooking techniques.
2. Red beans are the best.
This is not to say that red beans are ineffective, but that red beans have stronger spleen strengthening function and are more beneficial to edema patients. You know, the medicinal value of red beans is much stronger than that of ordinary red beans.
So how can we effectively get rid of dampness?
1: Avoid cold and humid environment.
The human body will be affected by the surrounding environment. Excessive outdoor humidity will cause moisture to invade the body. By the way, girls must blow-dry their hair before going out after taking a shower.
2. Spleen dampness
Eliminating dampness and nourishing the spleen and stomach is helpful to the biochemistry of qi, blood and body fluid, and will not cause the situation of water-dampness stagnation. Whole grains can strengthen the spleen and replenish qi. Seasoning with onions, ginger and garlic at ordinary times will also alleviate the excessive moisture. Making a bowl of ginger soup and ginger tea is a very good choice.
3. Exercise more.
Exercise can promote metabolism and accelerate the excretion of water in the body, but it is not recommended to exercise too much in rainy days. I hope to dry my sweat in time after exercise, otherwise it will be counterproductive.
