There are two kinds of phlegm: visible phlegm and invisible phlegm, and the "phlegm" here is invisible phlegm. Invisible phlegm can be distributed all over the body, such as fat, such as fat in blood vessels.

Therefore, treating hyperlipidemia and obesity is essentially treating phlegm.

Treatment focus one, pay attention to conditioning the spleen and stomach.

Because the spleen and stomach are the source of phlegm, all phlegm pathogens are rooted in the spleen and stomach. If it is spleen deficiency, water dampness cannot be transmitted, and it will accumulate in the spleen, resulting in spleen dampness. Damp evil is more and more condensed, more and more viscous, and will eventually become phlegm. Therefore, it is of great benefit to adjust such symptoms and appropriately add drugs to strengthen the spleen and stomach.

Treatment focus 2. Nourish yin and moisten the lungs properly, and calm the heart and converge.

Phlegm-heat syndrome is easy to consume heart, lung and vaginal fluid, resulting in deficiency of yin and body fluid, dryness of lung and irritability. Therefore, the drugs for treating phlegm-heat should moisten and prevent phlegm-heat from damaging yin and soothe the nerves.

Treatment focus three, giving due consideration to regulating kidney.

To treat phlegm, the spleen is the root of phlegm, the lung is the reservoir of phlegm, and then the kidney is the root of phlegm. Kidney governs water, and water cannot be gasified, so it cannot be excreted.
