1. What is the reason for oily stool?

It may be caused by intestinal inflammation, poor gastrointestinal digestion, etc. Go to the hospital for examination and symptomatic treatment in time.

2. What to eat to detoxify

1. Asparagus: diuretic and kidney strengthening

Asparagus is an alkaline food that can neutralize the acidic substances in the human body to reduce its harm to the body.

In addition, the asparagus contained in asparagus is an effective detoxifying cleanser for the kidneys, helping to remove kidney stones and having a diuretic effect. After a big meal, you might want to eat a bowl of asparagus and red date porridge to strengthen your spleen and stomach. However, it is important to remember that asparagus should not be eaten raw or stored for too long.

2. Burdock - the antidote for constipation

Burdock, which is relatively unfamiliar to Hong Kong people, is very popular among Japanese and Taiwanese. In fact, burdock is a plant of the Asteraceae family, native to China. It was later introduced to Japan and was regarded as the king of vegetables by the Japanese, with a value comparable to ginseng.

The most praised feature of burdock is its laxative effect. The large amount of dietary fiber it contains can stimulate large intestine peristalsis, eliminate bloating, and improve constipation. It also tastes sweet. You can boil burdock in water and drink it as tea, or you can stir-fry burdock root shreds and eat them hot. Although burdock is warm in nature, people with spleen deficiency and prone to diarrhea should still take it with caution.

Chili peppers - fighting poison with poison

Did you hear it right? Chili peppers can detoxify? A few years ago, the "chili lemon detoxification method" became popular in the United States, claiming that drinking lemon juice and chili powder every day can clean out gastrointestinal toxins.

In fact, chili peppers are rich in vitamin C, which has the functions of sterilization, antiseptic and cold-dispelling. Although eating too much can easily cause getting a sore throat, it can also make people sweat, and toxins in the body will be excreted with sweat. Of course, if people who rarely eat chili peppers suddenly start to eat a lot, it may backfire and upset their stomachs at any time. But for people who grew up eating chili peppers, it is indeed a good food for dispelling cold and detoxifying. Adding a little chili to your daily dishes can have a very good detoxifying effect.

3. Ginger: Dispel cold and promote sweating

Ginger may not look good, but it has many benefits, including strengthening the spleen and stomach, dispelling cold and detoxifying. Whether it's a cold, menstrual cramps or nausea, a cup of ginger tea can relieve your symptoms. The various volatile oils contained in ginger can promote blood circulation, open the skin, and excrete toxins from the body through sweating.

However, although ginger has excellent edible and medicinal effects, not everyone can tolerate it. Taking ginger tea as an example, people with weak constitution can drink more, but people with hot constitution should drink less. You can drink a cup of honey ginger tea in the morning for better moisturizing effect. If you feel a little hot, you should reduce the amount you drink.

4. Peanuts: a gastrointestinal tonic

Crisp and delicious peanuts contain large amounts of protein and fat, especially unsaturated fatty acids, so they are known as "longevity nuts" and are especially effective in strengthening the stomach and intestines.

It turns out that the fat in peanuts can break down cholesterol in the liver into bile acid, promote excretion, and thus reduce the cholesterol content in the blood. However, it is precisely because peanuts have a high fat content that eating too much will not only cause indigestion, but also lead to an obesity crisis. Moreover, after being fried, peanuts will lose 80% of their nutritional value and are very "irritating".

It is recommended that you use unfried peanuts, add corn, red dates or lotus seeds, etc. to cook porridge, which has the effect of strengthening the spleen and stomach.

5. Lotus root--clears heat and removes acne

Lotus root is not only a popular Chinese New Year food, but also a great product for removing acne! There is a saying in the market that "lotus root is full of treasures, and autumn lotus root is the most nutritious." Traditional Chinese medicine believes that lotus root has the effects of clearing heat and cooling blood, as well as promoting defecation and urination. It can accelerate the excretion of waste from the body to purify the blood. It is especially effective for patients who develop "acne" due to blood heat, or women who have a pale face due to weak spleen and stomach.

Lotus root can be eaten hot or cold. It can be used as a main dish ingredient, mixed with honey or apple to make juice, or even directly boiled and eaten with sugar. It is convenient and delicious.

6. Lychee: Accumulation of toxins or elimination of toxins?

As the saying goes, "One lychee is like three fires", lychees are hot fruits. People with hot constitutions will suffer from mouth sores or even nosebleeds if they eat too much. However, litchi is rich in glucose and protein, and has the functions of nourishing the kidney and essence, improving the liver, and accelerating the elimination of toxins. It is regarded as the king of fruits for detoxification and beauty. It is not difficult to detoxify without getting irritated.

Before eating, you can soak the lychees with the skin in light salt water, and then put them in the refrigerator for a while; you can also drink the lychee peel in water first, and then eat the lychee flesh, which is said to detoxify the lychee; or you can drink more Wuhua tea or lung-moisturizing sugar water after eating lychees. However, people with hot constitutions, gout and diabetes patients should still control their appetite and find other ways to detoxify.
