As the saying goes, rich people take tonics and poor people soak their feet. It can be seen that foot soaking has a very good effect on our body. There is also a saying that goes "To grow a tree, you need to protect its roots; to grow a person, you need to protect his feet." Although feet may seem insignificant and are worn in shoes every day, they are known as the "second heart of the human body." Therefore, we need to take good care of it. Foot soaking is the simplest and most effective method. Especially in the hot summer, adding these to the foot bath water will definitely give you more effects than you can imagine. What should I add to my foot bath water? 1. Vinegar: removes foot odor, prevents and treats athlete's foot, promotes blood circulation, and eliminates rheumatism. 2. Salt: It can eliminate constipation, eliminate fatigue and help sleep. 3. Dried ginger: In addition to rheumatism, bone pain, fear of cold, dried ginger warms the middle and dispels cold, restores yang and unclogs the meridians. 4. Sichuan pepper: removes odor and dampness, promotes the flow of qi and water, and supports yang energy. 5. Soybeans: Crush the soybeans and boil them in water. Cook over low heat for about 20 minutes. Use about 1 kilogram of water. When the water temperature is suitable for washing feet, use it to soak your feet. You can soak them for a while. It is very effective in treating athlete's foot. It prevents feet from peeling and keeps the skin moisturized. Generally, the effect will be seen after washing for three or four days. 6. Radish: You can use half a white radish, cut it into thin slices, put it in the pot, then add appropriate amount of water, boil it over high heat for 3 minutes and then over low heat for 5 minutes, then pour it into a basin, wait for it to cool down to a moderate temperature, then wash your feet repeatedly, and wash it several times to remove foot odor. 7. Tea: Adding salt to tea leaves and soaking your feet can help prevent and treat mild foot odor. Experts say that tea itself has astringent and adsorbent effects and can indeed absorb odors. Patients with foot odor can soak their feet in boiled tea water (there is no limit to the type of tea). The cleansing process of soaking the feet, plus the astringent effect of the tea itself, can somewhat suppress foot odor. 8. Ginger, tangerine peel, and mint: treat spleen and stomach deficiency, warm the spleen and stomach, and eliminate dampness. 9. White peony root, motherwort and angelica: treat dysmenorrhea. Dysmenorrhea is generally caused by body cold or qi stagnation and blood stasis. White peony root can remove yin qi, relieve abdominal pain and unblock blood vessels. Motherwort removes blood stasis, promotes new blood circulation, and regulates menstruation. Angelica can replenish blood, promote blood circulation, regulate menstruation and relieve pain. It can also make the skin white and rosy and improve the problem of cold hands and feet. |
