How to treat dampness and heat in men?

In modern life, people attach great importance to the health of their body, because a healthy body can make people happier and enjoy life more. However, in the hot summer climate, people are prone to physical illness problems, which have a great impact on their lives. For example, dampness and heat are important factors affecting people's physical condition. Let's take a look at how men can regulate dampness and heat?

1. Maintain a regular work and rest schedule, go to bed early and get up early, and don’t stay up late, otherwise your biological clock and endocrine system will be disrupted, resulting in a bad complexion and acne.

2. Exercise more to help unclog pores, detoxify, and exercise the body.

3. Try to eat a light diet, eat less greasy sweets, and eat more fruits and vegetables. Otherwise it’s only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution! ! !

4. Drink with caution.

5. Don’t drink any bitter and cold herbal tea randomly, otherwise you will develop a cold constitution which will be even more difficult to regulate. To remove dampness and heat without being too cold, you can use the following in daily life: mung bean soup, which can clear away heat and dampness, and you can often cook some at home to drink; "Liuyi Powder" which contains 1 gram of licorice and 6 grams of talcum powder, can be soaked in water and drunk to promote diuresis, clear away heat and relieve summer heat.

Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes treatment based on syndrome differentiation, so the removal of dampness and heat must be symptomatic. If the liver fire is excessive, add some chrysanthemum; if the stomach fire is excessive, add coix seed; if the heart fire is excessive, use bamboo leaves; if the lung fire is excessive, use sterculia lychnophora and mulberry leaves, etc. In addition, winter melon, water melon, etc. also have the effect of removing dampness and heat.

6. According to traditional Chinese medicine, red dates can invigorate qi, strengthen the spleen, and replenish blood. They are warm in nature, so people with damp-heat constitution should not eat red dates. Red dates are an excellent tonic and are often added to dietary therapy and medicinal food to replenish blood and qi. They are not suitable for tonic people with dampness and heat. If you really want to eat red dates, then add some dampness-clearing and heat-clearing things together and cook them together. For example, you can cook porridge with coix seed and red dates, or cook winter melon peel and red dates together when making soup, which can have a neutralizing effect.

In addition to red dates, foods that people with damp-heat constitution should not eat or eat less include: meats such as venison, mutton, and dog meat, condiments such as onions, ginger, and garlic, and fruits such as durian, mango, and lychee.
