Mastering the four "ones" can instantly eliminate dampness and toxins

In the summer, heat waves bring with them dampness, which quietly lurks in the bodies of people with weak spleen and stomach. People with weak spleen and stomach and heavy dampness will be tortured with weakness in their limbs, oily face, heavy body, and most importantly, they will look fatter. Today I will teach you four “ones” to drive away moisture from your body.

A point

Turn on the switch to remove moisture

Chengshan acupoint is the best acupuncture point for removing moisture from the human body, and its effect is similar to that of barley and red bean porridge.

Many people feel obvious soreness, swelling and pain when pressing the Chengshan acupoint. This is because there is dampness in the body.

Acupoint location: Chengshan point, located in the middle below the calf. At this position, the muscles are divided into a "human" shape, and Chengshan point is in the middle of the human shape.

1. Acupressure: Pressing the Chengshan point will feel very painful, so the technique must be gentle, until you feel a slight soreness and pain, and then you can gradually increase the pressure.

You can press the massage 1-2 times a day, each time for 10-20 minutes, from light to heavy, with even force.

2. Weight-bearing method: Stand casually, hug your hands in front of your chest, lift your heels slightly, and keep your center of gravity on the front two-thirds of your feet.

In this way, the force-bearing part happens to be the Chengshan point on the calf, which can also play a massage role.

The best time to press the Chengshan point is from 3 to 5 pm. At that time, the qi and blood in our body's bladder meridian are most abundant, which can help the body remove dampness for us.

In addition, some middle-aged and elderly friends are prone to calf cramps, especially when sleeping at night. At this time, just press and rub the Chengshan point and the symptoms of cramps will be relieved or disappear.

A bowl of dehumidifying soup

Not cold, can remove dampness

To remove dampness in summer, in addition to massaging the Chengshan acupoint, a bowl of dehumidifying five-bean soup is recommended.

When it comes to dehumidifying soup, many people will think of red bean and barley soup, but this bowl of five-bean soup is milder than red bean and barley soup. It can relieve heat without being cold, and promote diuresis without damaging the kidneys.

Ingredients: 10g red bean, 10g mung bean, 10g black bean, 10g white lentil, 3g licorice

practice:

1. Wash and soak the ingredients, put them into a pot, add 2000 ml of water, boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for 2 hours. You can eat it warm or add sugar according to your personal taste.

2. Red beans nourish the heart, promote diuresis and reduce swelling; black beans benefit and tonify the kidneys; mung beans reduce internal heat and detoxify; white lentils strengthen the spleen and nourish the stomach; licorice replenishes qi and strengthens the spleen.

Drinking this bowl of five-bean soup often in summer can dispel summer heat, clear away heat and detoxify, and also strengthen the spleen, nourish the stomach, and benefit the kidneys.

It also has other analgesic effects and is very helpful in eliminating dampness in summer.

A cup of tea

Eliminate "dampness and toxins"

Job's tears tea: Twice a day, morning and evening, take about 5 grams of cooked Job's tears powder each time, with warm water. Take after meals.

It can moisturize the skin, whiten and replenish moisture, promote qi and blood circulation, regulate menstruation and relieve pain.

According to the classics, adding some sugar or honey will make it taste better, very fragrant, delicious, beauty-enhancing and weight-loss!

A bowl of porridge

Get rid of moisture

Job's tears are rich in water-soluble fiber, which can absorb bile salts responsible for digesting fat, thereby reducing the intestinal absorption rate of fat and lowering blood lipids.

In addition, suga ben can promote the metabolism of blood and water in the body, and has diuretic and anti-edema effects, so it can achieve the effect of weight loss.

Since Job's tears are not easy to cook and overcooking will destroy the effect, it is best to soak them in water for more than three hours before cooking.

Job's tears are low in calories but filling, making them a very nutritious and natural health food that can remove impurities from the body.

Mung Bean and Barley Porridge

Method: Wash 15 grams of rice, 15 grams of mung beans and 15 grams of coix seeds, add water and cook porridge.

Eating it directly can satisfy hunger, clear away heat and quench thirst, nourish the lungs, strengthen the spleen and stomach, clear away heat, eliminate rheumatism, and reduce edema.

You can also add mung bean powder to make bean paste and cook it into mung bean and barley porridge. Mung beans and barley have diuretic and edema-improving effects.

Job's tears itself has the effect of lightening dark spots and whitening the skin, while mung beans have a detoxifying effect, allowing toxins in the body to be excreted as quickly as possible.

"Nine out of ten people suffer from dampness", all diseases start from dampness!

If the dampness and toxins are not eliminated, there will be endless troubles. This acupuncture point, a bowl of soup, a cup of tea, or a bowl of porridge can remove dampness and toxins from the body, restore health, and regain vitality!
