Dampness is too heavy, the baby will easily be drowsy, but also easy to suffer from gastrointestinal discomfort, skin diseases, respiratory diseases, etc. Therefore, today we want to teach you a few tricks, how to determine whether the baby is damp! The first move: look at the baby’s mental state when you get up If you see your baby especially tired when you get up every morning, sleep, can not wake up, can not afford to fight, or like wearing a wet clothes, not fresh, people are also lazy to move …… then you can be sure that there is moisture in the body. The second trick: look at the baby tongue color “tongue for the heart of the seedlings, and for the spleen outside the wait”, the tongue is sensitive to reflect the baby’s physical condition. When cleaning your baby’s mouth, you can observe your baby’s tongue to see the color and thickness of the tongue moss.

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 that there is cold in the body; if the tongue is rough or very thick, yellow and greasy, it means that there is damp heat in the body; if the tongue is red and without moss, it means that the body has been hot to a certain extent and hurt Yin. The third trick: look at the baby’s appetite From the perspective of Chinese medicine, heavy dampness causes the spleen and stomach to regress, therefore, people will feel poor appetite and loss of appetite.

In addition, the color and shape of the stool can also help determine whether the body has dampness. The normal stool is golden banana-shaped, but few people nowadays are this healthy stool. 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 to accumulate in the body, then a hundred diseases.
