How to regulate spleen, stomach and liver problems

Everyone plays a very important role in the health of the body, whether it is heart health, kidney health, or spleen and stomach health, it is particularly important to us. Many people have bad spleen, stomach and liver. At this time, they often have poor qi, loss of appetite and do not want to eat anything. They will feel uncomfortable if they eat too much or too little. How to regulate this type of situation in daily life has become a very critical issue.

Steps/Methods

Eat only until you are 80% full at each meal: this means eating enough but not overeating! Don't eat too much at every meal, because the stomach needs to consume qi and blood energy to digest food. Eating too much will increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, and not all of the food you eat can be absorbed. Therefore, be careful not to overeat at every meal. Eight-tenths full is the best state. Excessive food will only burden the spleen and stomach and bring garbage to the body.

How to regulate the spleen and stomach

There should be sufficient amounts of porridge and staple foods: in a meal, the total amount of porridge and staple foods should account for one half, that is, half of the staple food and porridge, and the other half are dishes. In this way, the whole grains and beans eaten can provide the body with sufficient raw materials for producing qi and blood, and can also balance the yin and yang in the body. The staple foods for breakfast and lunch should be larger in quantity, while dinner should mainly consist of porridge or paste.

How to regulate the spleen and stomach

Chewing slowly is the key: When it comes to this, many people never really do it. Because of the fast pace of life nowadays, people often eat in a hurry and do not chew every bite of food thoroughly. The food we eat needs to be fermented into a paste in the stomach before it can be absorbed by the body. Think about it, there are no teeth in the stomach, so it can only rely on the constant peristalsis of the stomach. The mucous membrane in the stomach is just like the mucous membrane in our mouth. So, the cold, hot, spicy, hard, and large foods we eat will cause great stimulation to the mucosa during the peristalsis of the stomach.

We have teeth for chewing. Don’t let the stomach complete the task of the teeth. This will destroy the stomach! I hope everyone will not do such cruel things and should do their best to protect our spleen and stomach. Try to chew the food thoroughly into a fine paste. This will reduce the burden on the stomach after swallowing and allow for full absorption. This is the same as asking you to drink rice paste regularly, which can facilitate absorption.

Cold drinks and spicy food are as fierce as tigers and are killers of the spleen and stomach: Ever since the advent of refrigerators, cold drinks have occupied the stomachs of many people. Many people feel they cannot live without cold drinks in summer. Especially when the summer heat is unbearable, a bottle of iced drink or an ice cream may seem to make you feel refreshed, but a large amount of drinks that are more than 30 degrees below body temperature will cause all the blood vessels in your stomach to contract violently, and the stomach's need for qi and blood will increase dramatically. The heart and spleen will have to mobilize a large amount of blood to help it, and use their own heat to warm up the cold drinks. If this happens frequently, the spleen yang will be seriously damaged and the heart will also be affected.

Let's talk about the hot pepper, the most powerful of all spicy foods. It directly irritates the gastrointestinal mucosa, and its hot and dry nature is difficult to dispel. It stays in the body, enters the liver and gallbladder, lungs and intestines, spleen and stomach, and becomes stagnant dryness and heat. Then you will often get inflamed, and rely on getting inflamed to eliminate it. It causes stagnation of heat in the liver and gallbladder, deficiency of stomach yin, lung heat and dryness, and finally gastrointestinal ulcers, duodenal ulcers, enteritis, intestinal ulcers, severe gastrointestinal bleeding, hemorrhoids, gallbladder inflammation and stones, and pharyngitis and abscesses. These phenomena often recur, but when you see someone getting inflamed, you either use cold medicines or antibiotics to solve the superficial symptoms, and you never take the condition of the internal organs into consideration.
