What are the benefits of gastrointestinal care?

Regular gastrointestinal care is very beneficial to physical health. We know that the gastrointestinal health of the human body directly affects the health of the body. Especially in recent years, the incidence of colorectal cancer is relatively high. With the improvement of people's living standards, more attention should be paid to diet. In this regard, gastrointestinal care can be carried out through some professional institutions and formal places. Let us learn about this aspect.

What are the benefits of gastrointestinal care?

From the moment we are born, we cannot do without food. We absorb nutrients from food to supply the needs of various tissues and organs in the body, so as to maintain normal metabolism, promote height and keep the body young. The stomach and intestines are the core part of nutrient absorption, so stomach and intestine care is very important.

The moisture and necessary nutrients for the skin are mainly absorbed from the spleen and stomach. If the gastrointestinal tract is diseased, the skin will not be supplied with enough nutrition and water, which will directly affect the beauty of the face, causing dull, yellow and black complexion. Therefore, if the stomach and intestines are not in good health, the complexion will be dull and women will lose their beauty. It can be seen that the function of the stomach and intestines directly affects the beauty effect.

Human health lies in the fact that the nutrients we eat must be digested by the spleen and stomach and then absorbed by the human body, while the stomach and intestines are also responsible for excreting the waste that cannot be absorbed. Only when the import and export are healthy can the health of the human body be ensured. Gastrointestinal motility can improve constipation, make bowel movements smoother, and eliminate old stool and toxins deposited in the intestines. Repair intestinal mucosal tissue and improve digestive function.

Effective gastrointestinal maintenance methods

1. Waking up the spleen “Waking up the spleen” means to liberate the spleen and stomach from a long-term sluggish or hyperactive state. The long-term sluggish or hyperactive state is such as “no appetite at all, or only being particularly interested in a certain kind of food, or not feeling full no matter how much you eat, or not feeling hungry no matter how much you don’t eat. In short, it is either too strong or too weak. At this time, we need to “wake up” the spleen and stomach from this state.

2. What is promoting stagnation? It is to activate the spleen and stomach, especially the gastrointestinal tract, so that the things stored in them can move to the next step. In the previous section, we talked about that the gastrointestinal tract moves rhythmically. The purpose of this rhythmic movement is to enhance the emptying capacity of the stomach and intestines. This is the key reason why I often talk about "the stomach is supplemented by being unobstructed". If you want to use a box to hold things, you must empty the box. If you cannot do this, no matter how you maintain the gastrointestinal tract, it will be ineffective.

3. Strengthen the spleen and stomach. Why do some people grow fat, some grow thin, and some grow neither fat nor thin? In fact, it is all due to the spleen and stomach. We can directly say that "what kind of spleen and stomach determines your body shape". The word "strong" means that you should "absorb what should be absorbed, and not absorb what should not be absorbed." To put it more directly, it means to let the spleen and stomach act according to the objective rules of the body. Everything must be done according to the needs of the body, and this general direction cannot be deviated from.

4. Regulating Qi and Clearing the Intestines

The above three points alone cannot completely solve the problem. In order to maintain good gastrointestinal care, regulating qi and clearing the intestines is a very important link. Why? It's very simple. In order to stimulate gastrointestinal movement and quickly empty the food inside, the gastrointestinal gas must be pushed downward as much as possible, and it cannot stagnate in the gastrointestinal tract. (Food that cannot be digested in time is more likely to produce gas. The more gas produced, the more likely it is to cause obesity or constipation, or no hunger and not feeling hungry all day long.) Otherwise, if it is serious, it will cause intestinal bloating or increased toxins, so the gas in the body must be dispersed quickly. Traditional Chinese medicines that solve this kind of problem include "clove, costus root, agarwood, bitter orange, agarwood, sandalwood, toosendan fruit, green peel, etc." There is a herb called "Qingmuxiang", which is very effective. Unfortunately, few people know how to use it now. Many things in Chinese medicine are among the people, and there are many good things worth exploring and summarizing.
