What to do if the skin itches due to blood heat? Regulate blood heat in time

People who always like to eat spicy and irritating food will easily develop blood heat, which can cause symptoms such as skin itching, oily skin, and increased menstruation. They need to adjust their condition in time and eat more foods that have the effect of cooling blood, such as duck meat, winter melon, eggplant, lotus root, etc.

1. Eat foods that cool blood

Foods that cool blood include:

Duck meat, red beans, water chestnuts, winter melon, fresh lotus root, shepherd's purse, lotus seeds, eggplant, jujube, coix seed, raw rehmannia, poria, yam, fresh fish, fresh imperata root, etc.

In terms of diet, you should eat more cool and moisturizing foods. For example, lotus root has the effect of clearing heat and cooling blood, and is most suitable for people with hot blood. It can be eaten cold, juiced, or stir-fried. In addition, snow pears, bitter gourd, bitter herbs, loofah, fresh asparagus, mung beans, winter melon, black sesame, crabs, and duck meat are also blood-cooling foods and should be eaten more often. You should eat less warm and dry foods such as mutton, leeks, peppers, sunflower seeds, etc. You should avoid hot pot and alcohol.

2. Choose static exercise

In terms of exercise, people with hot blood should not do strenuous exercise, but should do gentle exercise, such as yoga. Static exercise is beneficial to regulate blood circulation in the body and soothe emotional fluctuations.

3. Avoid sun exposure as much as possible

People with hot blood should not sunbathe, and should also avoid sun exposure on normal days, because these people have excessive yang energy. If they are exposed to the sun and absorb the yang energy, it would be like adding fuel to the fire.

4. Chinese medicine conditioning

People with severe blood heat can take Chinese medicine for conditioning, or drink more chrysanthemum water in daily life. If necessary, you can use 10 grams of raw rehmannia, 6 grams of moutan bark, 6 grams of sophora japonica, and 6 grams of chrysanthemum to boil water and drink it, or under the guidance of a doctor, choose Niuhuang Jiedu Tablets, Sanhuang Tablets, Zhibai Dihuang Pills and other medications according to the specific symptoms.
