What Chinese patent medicine should I take for spleen deficiency and dampness?

If the humidity is too heavy, you should move out in time and change to a new living environment. Secondly, you should choose the right medicine for treatment. So, what Chinese patent medicine should be taken for spleen deficiency and dampness?

Five types of food to regulate the spleen and stomach

1. Lily: A tonic product that has the effects of nourishing yin and moistening the lungs, clearing the heart and calming the mind, relieving fever and promoting diuresis, relieving cough and asthma, and regulating the stomach and strengthening the spleen. You can drink lily porridge and eat lily fried with celery.

2. Lotus seeds: nourish the kidney, strengthen the spleen, nourish the heart, calm the nerves, and anti-aging. You can use lotus seeds with white poria cocos, Chinese yam, glutinous rice, Chencang rice, white sugar, etc., steam it into cake, or drink lotus seed and lily porridge directly.

3. Yam: Clears the mind and soothes the nerves, replenishes the spleen and replenishes Qi, helps the five internal organs, and strengthens the bones and muscles. Yam contains a large amount of mucus protein, which can prevent fat deposition in the cardiovascular system, maintain blood vessel elasticity, and prevent arteriosclerosis. You can eat yam porridge, fried yam, and steamed yam.

4. Lamb: It strengthens the spleen and warms the stomach, but try not to fry or grill it. You can cook lamb soup or eat it in hot pot, which are both good choices.

5. Glutinous rice: has the effect of strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi. Everyone knows that glutinous rice is not easy to digest, especially for people with poor spleen and stomach, who are prone to heartburn and acid reflux after eating it. So how can we eat food to achieve the effect of strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi without causing indigestion? I recommend eating fermented glutinous rice or cooking glutinous rice porridge. You can add rice or japonica rice to glutinous rice porridge, just put a little glutinous rice.

Keep warm and maintain a regular living schedule.

1. Keep warm: especially take good care of the parts that are prone to cold, such as the shoulders, neck, and feet. Exercise should be moderate, and it is not advisable to exercise too much and sweat too much.

2. Daily routine: In winter, daily routine should follow the principle of going to bed early and getting up late, and the sleep time should be appropriately extended. Remember, don't stay up late and don't think too much, otherwise it will damage your spleen. Avoid eating raw and cold food, avoid overeating, and try to avoid raw and cold food and seafood, as these foods will damage the yang energy of the spleen and stomach. Try to avoid overeating and overeating; do not eat overly warm and dry foods just because of coldness, such as fried, grilled, ginseng, etc., because long-term consumption can cause "getting angry", as the saying goes, the weak cannot be nourished. It is recommended to add some warming and tonic medicines on the basis of strengthening the spleen. The medicines and foods that can replenish the spleen include: Codonopsis pilosula, Pseudostellaria pseudoginseng, Poria cocos, Atractylodes macrocephala, yam, lentils, lotus seeds, jujubes, coix seeds (not suitable for long-term consumption as they are cold in nature and need to be fried), and chestnuts (not suitable for people with abdominal bloating, acid reflux and heartburn due to qi stagnation). It still requires long-term care. Depu’s Changmobao tea gently regulates the spleen and stomach and is a good choice.
