In order to maintain life and health, human beings need to eat every day, and after food is digested and absorbed by the human body, it will produce waste products, leaving residues in the intestines, and these substances will accumulate into "poison" if they are not discharged from the human body in time, thereby inducing various diseases.
In addition to the toxins produced inside the human body, there are also some "poisons" from the outside of the human body, such as harmful substances in heavy metals, chemicals in life, etc., which are mostly absorbed by the digestive tract or respiratory tract through the air as a medium to achieve the effect of invading the human body.
Now that we know how toxins are produced in the human body, how can we help the body detoxify? Here, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine health preservation, we will talk about the five visceral diet therapy detoxification methods, and by the way, reveal the best detoxification time of the day.
1. Cleanse the liver and detoxify
The liver is an important organ for the human body to detoxify, once there is a problem with the liver, it will affect the normal secretion of bile, its biotransformation function is impaired, the detoxification ability is weakened, and the waste and residue produced by the human body are difficult to convert into harmless substances or low-harm substances, resulting in difficulty in excretion.
If the liver is not good, there will be symptoms of indigestion such as loss of appetite, abdominal distention, yellow eyes, yellow urine, etc., and it is easy to produce depression, and some will have migraines, accompanied by vomiting, and women will have dysmenorrhea.
To detoxify the liver, refer to the saying of "five-color diet" in traditional Chinese medicine, green into the liver, pay attention to eating more cucumbers, kelp, mung beans and other green foods every day, develop the habit of eating a handful of wolfberries every day, assist acupoint massage, press the Taichong acupoint with your thumb for about 4 minutes every day, and press the left and right feet.
In addition, 11:00~1:00 at night is the detoxification time of the liver, so don't stay up late, not sleeping will affect the liver detoxification effect.
2. Detoxify and nourish the heart
The heart is like the engine of the human body, providing sufficient power for various organs and tissues.
If there is a toxin accumulation in the heart, people will have an "internal fire", causing mouth and tongue ulcers, when the "internal fire" burns vigorously enough, the forehead will begin to pox, and the internal fire will produce poison in the heart, there will be insomnia, palpitations, and even chest tightness or tingling symptoms.
The first choice for heart protection and detoxification is lotus seeds, which are a good medicine for those with strong hearts, which have the effects of extinguishing heart fire, promoting sleep, and lowering blood pressure. You can use lotus seeds to make soup and lotus seed hearts to make tea every day. In addition, you can eat more mung beans, such as mung bean soup, mung bean milk and other liquids can increase the detoxification effect.
In addition, the heart does not care about the detoxification time, but 11:00~13:00 noon is the most active time for the heart.
3. Spleen detoxification
The spleen is one of the five organs often said in traditional Chinese medicine, it is the organ in charge of digestion, and the digestion, absorption and transportation of food are inseparable from it, in addition to the metabolism and endocrine of the human body.
When the spleen is not good, its function of digestion, absorption and transportation of nutrients will be weakened, causing phlegm and dampness, and it is difficult for garbage toxins to be discharged from the body, resulting in fat accumulation, bad breath, etc., and women will have increased leucorrhoea and are prone to pigmentation.
Sour foods such as black plum and vinegar are good choices, which can enhance the digestive function of the stomach and intestines and facilitate the discharge of toxins. You can also rub the Shangqiu acupoint to assist in detoxification, and press the left and right feet for about 3 minutes each time.
In addition, 9:00~11:00 a.m. is the time for spleen detoxification, so avoid eating ice at this time.
4. Kidney detoxification
The main function of the kidneys is to form urine, which sends waste products from the body's metabolism out of the body. Kidney problems generally manifest as two symptoms: white face and chills, cold limbs, and easy fatigue are kidney yang deficiency; Frequent sweating, night sweats, dizziness, tinnitus, and cold and heat are kidney yin deficiency.
Kidney detoxification, the main attention is to reduce the burden on the kidneys, like some high-protein meats are not recommended to eat excessively, will increase the load on the kidneys. Second, enhance its detoxification function, eat more vegetables and fruits such as cherries, cucumbers, yams, coriander, etc., which can play a good tonic role in the kidneys, so as to achieve the effect of enhancing detoxification ability.
In addition, the kidneys will be detoxified at 17:00~19:00, and it is best to go to fitness during this time.
5. Lung detoxification
The lungs are organs in the human body that are very easy to accumulate toxins, such as dust, bacteria, and second-hand smoke in the external environment will enter the lungs through breathing, and the lungs are easily damaged if these garbage are not removed in time.
The most common reaction to lung problems is chest tightness, coughing, difficulty breathing, etc., and the lungs and large intestine are interconnected.
Eat more radish, lily and mushrooms every day, radish can help expel stool, lily and mushroom are good lung food, detoxifying the lungs and moisturizing and reducing the burden on the intestines. In addition, exercise can speed up the secretion of sweat and achieve the effect of detoxification.
The detoxification time of the lungs is 3:00~5:00 in the morning, and people with lung problems will cough worse at this time, but do not stop coughing immediately.
To sum up, the pace of modern life is too fast, especially young people have no time to care for and care for their bodies, so TCM diet therapy is a good choice. In addition, we should also pay attention to having a positive state of life in life and keep the mood as happy as possible, because negative emotions are the mental toxins that corrode people.
