There is an old saying: “A thousand cold is easy to remove, a damp is difficult to go. Dampness is sticky and turbid, like oil into the surface.” Wet and cold together called cold wet, and heat together called damp heat, and wind together called wind wet, and summer together is summer wet. Dampness does not go, eat more supplements, drugs are like scratching an itch, across the mountain to beat the bull. Many people in life suffer from fatty liver, asthma, high blood pressure, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and even malignant tumors, in fact, these diseases are related to dampness, phlegm dampness. More than 1800 years ago, Zhang Zhongjing, a great medical practitioner in the Eastern Han Dynasty, said in his work “Treatise on Typhoid”, “Those who have a great fever and want to get clothes instead, have cold in the bone marrow.” That is to say, although the fever is very high body temperature, but the body feels cold want to wear more clothes, indicating that the body is very heavy cold, cold to the bone marrow. At this time then use antibiotics and other cold drugs infusion to reduce inflammation and fever, will bring some external cold and damp Qi directly into the body. Zhang Zhongjing was the author of the Treatise on Typhoid, and in his time people endured hunger and cold, and illnesses were dominated by cold evils, which could be directly treated with hot medicines. Nowadays, with the change of living environment, simple typhoid fever is rare, instead, external cold is intertwined with internal heat to form dampness. True cold is not common, but is mainly dominated by dampness. Dampness is a yin evil, curbing Yang energy and obstructing the qi flow. In other words, it is the dampness that is at work in times of yang deficiency. One strange phenomenon is that nowadays, it is rare to see patients with real cold and flu in winter, but summer abounds instead. Modern people are living in an environment where there is heating in winter and air conditioning in summer, and the sense of the seasons is becoming less and less distinct. In summer, when you should sweat because of the use of air conditioning, the sweat does not evaporate and accumulate in the body; winter heating, wearing a single piece of clothing still sweating, Yang Qi outside, can not hide the essence. (Winter does not hide the essence, spring will be sick temperature) the human body in this state of the environment is most prone to disease, the skin open and close the function of the decline, the ability to resist disease is getting worse, it is easy to lead to the accumulation of dampness in the body, resulting in the weakness of Yang. Dampness is more harmful to the human body than cold evil. In the summer, people crave cold air, love to drink cold drinks, love to eat cold food. A glass of cold beer down, from inside to outside, from head to foot are penetrated with cool energy. I do not know, for the sake of this momentary pleasure, but also the dampness is deeply buried in the body, becoming a great hidden danger that plagues our health. Every year in July and August is called long summer, when dampness is in order, the human body’s spleen and its corresponding. Dampness in Chinese medicine, also known as “Yin”, and the spleen is the most Yin organs, like dryness and evil dampness, so the spleen in July and August when the most vigorous. If there is too much dampness in the long summer, it will easily damage the spleen. At the same time, the spleen is the main transport of water, it is characterized by the Yang is easy to decline, Yin is easy to flourish, moisture invasion of the body is most likely to hurt the spleen Yang, and the weakness of the spleen Yang also further encourages the invasion of moisture. Others like to eat pork, pork taste salty cold to help phlegm, meat eat more can also lead to phlegm damp, if you feel heavy body damp, it is best to adhere to eat a period of vegetarian; long-term eating rice cooker rice, but also easy to cause body damp. People with body dampness can use barley and red bean soup or potpourri to solve it. After drinking barley red bean soup for a while, then drink millet porridge to supplement the spleen and stomach, a long time the spleen is healthy, dampness since the transformation. Self-diagnosis of the body whether wet method: First, when you get up – look at the feeling If every morning when you get up feel particularly tired, hair drowsy, can not afford to fight, or like wearing a wet clothes, all over the body is not fresh, people are also lazy …… then You can be sure that your body has wet. Second, the toilet – look at the stool Early in the morning after the convenience, you can observe the stool. Is not sticky on the toilet, a tank of water still can not flush clean. Not convenient to observe the toilet, you can also observe the hand paper, normal words one or two sheets of paper is enough, if three or five sheets of paper repeatedly wipe can not be clean, also indicates that the body has wet. The color and shape of the stool can also help determine whether there is moisture in the body. A normal stool is golden banana-shaped, but few people nowadays have such healthy stools. If there is dampness in the body, the color of the stool is greenish, loose and unshaped, and there is always a feeling of impurity. Over time, the toxins produced by the stool accumulate in the body, then a hundred diseases. Third, when washing up – look at the tongue After going to the toilet we usually start washing up, before brushing our teeth we may want to take a few seconds to look at their own tongue in the mirror. “The tongue is the seedling of the heart and the outer spleen”, the tongue can be a sensitive reflection of our body condition. A healthy tongue is light red and moist, with a layer of tongue moss on the surface, thin, white and clear, moderately dry and moist, not slippery or dry. If the tongue fails to meet these indicators, it means that there is already a problem with body functions. If the tongue is white and thick, looks smooth and moist, it means there is cold in the body; if the tongue is rough or very thick, yellow and greasy, it means there is damp heat in the body; if the tongue is red and without moss, it means the body has been heated to a certain extent to hurt Yin. In addition to the above three main points, there are two other ways to distinguish: First, look at the morning when you get up to brush your teeth, evil or not nausea. Many people say they vomit and feel nauseous when they brush their teeth, and there is always a silky, dry feeling in their throat, even if they spit, it is only a little. Secondly, in the morning, the feeling of calf stomach is not sore, sinking. These are also the typical characteristics of dampness. By the way, a wonderful way to get rid of dampness is to point and rub the Chengshan point. All very useful, it is best to use moxibustion. There is a strange phenomenon, that is, now in winter rarely see the real cold cold patients, but in summer than the heat, people crave cold, love to drink cold drinks, love to eat cold food. A glass of cold beer down, from inside to outside, from head to foot are penetrated with cool energy. I do not know, for the sake of this momentary pleasure, but also the dampness is deeply buried in the body, becoming a great hidden danger that plagues our health.
