What are some ways for women to eliminate moisture?

For women, if the moisture is heavy, it will have a greater impact on health. At this time, you should pay attention to removing moisture, strengthen dietary adjustments, and eat more fermented foods, which help gastrointestinal digestion and metabolism. In addition, you can eat some sweets and sour foods appropriately. In addition, you should exercise moderately and maintain an optimistic attitude. You can soak your feet with mugwort leaves every day, which has a good effect in removing moisture.

1. Eat fermented food regularly to help women with dampness and heavy intestines metabolize smoothly.

In the long process of human development, fermented foods were originally invented to preserve food for a long time. This type of food not only has a unique flavor and brings you the enjoyment of a gourmet meal, but also helps the body's digestion and absorption, and is the best for nourishing the spleen and stomach. The leavened foods, soy sauce, vinegar, fermented black beans, fermented bean curd, rice wine, beer, etc. that we often eat in daily life are all fermented foods. Chinese medicine believes that they all nourish the spleen and stomach. Western nutritionists have also confirmed that fermented foods are a beneficial supplement to a healthy human diet and can help people's intestinal metabolism run more smoothly.

2. Women with high body fat can eat sweets appropriately, but they need healthier sweets

Sweet enters the spleen, and sweet foods have a good health-care effect on the spleen and stomach. Therefore, eating some sweet-tasting food not only nourishes the spleen, but also brings us a sense of pleasure. If a person is in a good mood, her digestion and absorption system will also improve.

However, "sweet" and "sweet and bland" are very different from the "sweet and cold" we are often exposed to. Chinese dim sum and candies can be called "sweet", and fruits with neutral properties such as apples and peaches can be called "sweet and bland". Both are good for the spleen and stomach, but sweets and dairy products in Western pastries are considered "sweet and cold" in traditional Chinese medicine and are not suitable for eating too much.

3. Eat something sour occasionally to protect your liver and spleen

In the theory of the generation and restraint of the five internal organs in traditional Chinese medicine, "Wood is cut down by metal, fire is extinguished by water, earth is reached by wood, metal is incomplete by fire, and water is cut off by earth." Among the mutual restraint relationships between the five elements and the five internal organs, only the mutual restraint relationship between earth and wood is treated as a generation relationship in practice. The liver and spleen are mutually dependent and mutually reinforcing, so nourishing the liver is nourishing the spleen. Because acid enters the liver meridian, only when the liver is healthy can the spleen and stomach be strong. Therefore, protecting the liver means nourishing the spleen from the root.

You can eat some sour foods such as plums, lemons, rice vinegar, etc.

4. Women with dampness can eat fruits but don’t eat too much.

Nowadays, many women replace staple foods with fruits for a long time in order to lose weight, and even hardly eat any other food. This is very unhealthy. Because the most nutritious things are actually whole grains, and many fruits are cold in nature, such as watermelon, pears, bananas, etc. Women with dampness-heavy spleen deficiency should not eat too much fruit. If they do eat, they should eat fruits that are less harmful to the spleen and stomach, such as peaches, apples, citrus fruits, apricots, plums, etc.
