After planting, you should get rid of dampness and be raw, what should you give your children more to eat?

After planting, the temperature rises significantly, the rainfall is abundant, the air humidity is large, and the yang between heaven and earth reaches the most exuberant period of the year, which is very suitable for growing cereals. I have always stressed that taking care of children should also conform to the changes of heaven and earth and raise them in accordance with the times.

During the planting season, children are also like crops, growing rapidly and developing rapidly, and their metabolism is vigorous. At this time, it is a critical period to take care of the child's yang qi and enhance the resistance, and it is also the best period to cultivate the child's physique.

There are 2 principles for taking care of children after planting seeds: get rid of dampness and be born

After the planting, the climate characteristics of the summer heat and humidity will be more prominent, and parents should master two principles when taking care of their children, one is to get rid of dampness in time; the other is to get rid of dampness at the same time, don't forget to help children have a hard time.

● Timely removal of damp heat

After the planting of mango, the two evils of summer and wetness prevailed. In the wet evil trap, the spleen and stomach are weak, and the water valley that eats it cannot be biochemical into qi and blood, and it is stuck in the spleen and stomach, and the child will accumulate food. If the food is not consumed in time, the accumulation of food and internal humidity can easily become hot and humid. Then, children are prone to colds, sore throats and even fevers.

The spleen is the "source of qi and blood biochemistry", the spleen is trapped, the child's qi and blood biochemistry is insufficient, and the resistance naturally declines. The resistance is reduced, it is impossible to resist the evil of disease, and it is easy to get a cold, herpetic angina, and hand-foot-and-mouth disease. The recent new crown epidemic in Guangdong is also closely related to "damp heat", at this time, it is very critical to take care of the child's spleen and stomach and get rid of damp heat in time.

● Get rid of dampness and don't forget to be raw

In the summer, the high temperature is hot, the human body's yang qi is hairy, the skin is open, it is easy to sweat, and once it sweats, it is easy to consume the liquid. Chinese medicine says, "sweating too much hurts yang", "yang with sweat discharge", sweating too much, abnormal sweating, will damage yang, especially spleen and yang. Children have a strong metabolism, sweating is 2 to 3 times that of adults, and the situation of sweating and injury and yang injury will be more obvious in the summer.

If the yang qi is damaged, the temper will be insufficient. Once the spleen is weak, it cannot be transported normally, and the food eaten cannot generate jin liquid, but because it cannot be digested, it becomes wet. The water will trap the spleen and stomach, so repeatedly it will become a vicious circle, so that the child with insufficient spleen will have a more serious spleen deficiency.

● How to judge whether a child wants to get rid of moisture or be angry?

Some parents are very confused, dampness is "drainage", raw jin is "water replenishment", the two are not contradictory? "Wet" is a pathological product, a liquid that is not beneficial to the body and even causes disease; and "jin liquid" is a normal water in the human body, such as sweat, blood, urine, etc. Moisture removal is the discharge of excess waste water phlegm in the body, while raw jin is to replenish jin liquid.

To get rid of dampness or to be raw, parents should learn to discern:

● If there is a lot of rain recently, the air humidity is large, and the child has obvious symptoms of heavy humidity, such as slippery tongue, white thick grease, yellow thick grease or tooth marks on the side of the tongue, stool sticky toilet, non-formed, or diarrhea, etc., it should be mainly to remove dampness.

● If the child does not have obvious moisture heavy performance, and even has symptoms such as red tongue and less moss, dry mouth, red lips, small face, and hot hands and feet, it should be mainly based on raw jin and yin.
