Symptoms: coffee drinking, stomach pain, palpitations, insomnia
If there is any drink that goes best with busy overtime workers, it is coffee. Coffee lovers can't do without it, not only because of the rich aroma and diverse taste of coffee, but also because of the refreshing function of coffee.
For overtime workers or "night owls", they can't open their eyes at all without a steaming cup of coffee in the morning, and some people are easy to get sleepy even though they don't stay up late, so they can only rely on coffee for support. After a long time, you can't do without it.
However, after drinking too much coffee, some people will experience various minor problems, such as stomach pain, heart palpitations, insomnia, etc., and many people will also experience diarrhea or constipation...... Although I also want to quit it, I can't lift my mind without it.
So, are there any alternatives that can help us drink less coffee and stay energized?
Trick: Astragalus water
[Ingredients] 15g of astragalus, 10g of wolfberry.
【Method】You can boil it in a small teapot for 15 minutes or soak it in boiling water in a thermos pot for 30 minutes, and then drink it after it cools slightly.
【Note】Those who are prone to fire should drink less, those who are tired and afraid of cold can drink more, and it is best to stop drinking during the cold.
Rationale: Soft "bean fragrance", nourishing the spleen and stomach
When a person is not tired of doing his work, he can be described as "full of energy". During the day, the yang energy rises, like a balloon begins to inflate, and at night the yang energy descends and converges into the body, like a hot air balloon releasing the qi and slowly descending.
Under normal circumstances, the qi of the human body comes from the innate reserve (the innate qi in the kidneys) and from the supplement of the spleen and stomach in the later stage. Coffee refreshment is actually achieved by dissipating yang energy, but in the long run, the more it is consumed, the more it is lost. Therefore, once some people quit coffee, they will feel more tired.
A more reasonable way to refresh the mind is to replenish yang qi to the spleen and stomach, and at the same time induce the yang qi of the spleen and stomach to go up, so that people's mental state is full. Astragalus itself is sweet and warm, can replenish the spleen and stomach, and at the same time its faint "bean fragrance" has a rising effect, although the refreshing effect after drinking is not as immediate as coffee, but it is more gentle, and can also improve our state of tiredness. Adding a little kidney-tonifying goji berries can not only sweeten this tea, but also nourish tired eyes.
