How uncomfortable will people be when there is heavy dampness in the body?
Traditional Chinese medicine says that "wet and heavy is like wrapping", which means that the body is damp and will feel as awkward as being wrapped in a half-dry and half-wet garment.
Summer is the time when you are most likely to get damp, so what can you do to avoid it?
Keeping in mind the six "moisture avoidance methods"
An unhealthy lifestyle will allow moisture to "take advantage of the void", and the following details can be used to dehumidify the body in life.
What should I do if I am already entangled in moisture?
The focus of dampness is to strengthen the spleen!
In the human body, the spleen and stomach are located in the middle of the human body and are the largest "water pump" in the body. When the spleen and stomach malfunction, all kinds of water in the human body continue to accumulate, and dampness comes!
Therefore, Zhang Jingyue of the Ming Dynasty said: "Water is only afraid of the soil, so it is controlled in the spleen." ”
If you want to nourish the spleen and stomach, there is a medicinal herb (medicine and food homology) that is worth recommending-five-finger peach.
Five-fingered peach is a kind of Lingnan medicinal material, which has the effects of strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi, invigorating qi and dampness, expelling phlegm and relieving asthma, relieving tendons and activating the body.
Modern people are delicious and lazy, and most of the tongues that stick out have symptoms of spleen deficiency and dampness, such as fat tongues, tooth marks, and white and thick tongue coating.
For this case, the five-fingered peach is just right!
Moreover, this herb has a peaceful taste, and can dissolve phlegm and remove dampness, relax the muscles and activate the nerves, even if the deficiency is not replenished, and the person with a damp and deficiency constitution can also use it with confidence.
