How to treat men's dampness?

1. Diet adjustment

The gastrointestinal system is related to the metabolism of nutrients and water. The best way is to eat a moderate and balanced diet. Greasy foods such as alcohol, milk, fatty and sweet foods are difficult to digest and can easily cause gastrointestinal bloating and inflammation. Sweets and fried foods can cause the body to produce peroxides, aggravating the inflammatory response.

Raw and cold food, ice cream or cold vegetables and fruits will cause the digestive and absorption functions of the stomach to stagnate and should not be consumed frequently. For example, lettuce, salad, watermelon, cabbage, bitter melon, etc. It is best to add onions and ginger when cooking to reduce the cold nature of the vegetables.

Barley and red bean porridge is the best for removing moisture. 50 grams of barley, 25 grams of red beans, and appropriate amount of sugar. Wash the barley and red beans and put them in a pot. Soak them in appropriate amount of water for 3-4 hours and cook them together until cooked. Add appropriate amount of sugar and eat after cooling. Young people are prone to irritability, insomnia, or rashes and acne on their faces. These are all caused by excessive heart fire and internal disturbance of dampness and heat. You can add lilies or lotus seeds to the barley and red bean porridge and cook them together, or add both.

You can also try cooking a bowl of hot and spicy ginger soup at home. Use the miraculous effect of ginger soup to disperse the moisture in the body. After you sweat all over your body, the symptoms will be relieved.

2. Exercise to remove moisture

Most people with heavy dampness in their bodies are those who eat greasy food and lack exercise. These people often feel heavy and weak in their limbs and are unwilling to move. However, the less they like to exercise, the more dampness accumulates in their bodies. Over time, it will inevitably lead to dampness attacking the spleen and causing a series of symptoms.

Exercise can relieve stress, promote the functioning of body organs, and accelerate the excretion of moisture from the body. Exercises such as running, walking, swimming, yoga, and Tai Chi can help activate blood circulation and increase water metabolism.

3. Daily moisture protection

Don't sleep directly on the floor. The floor is humid and can easily enter the body, causing pain in the limbs.

If the humidity in the room is very heavy, it is recommended to open the windows more often for ventilation. If the humidity outside is also very heavy, you can also turn on the fan or air conditioner to maintain air convection with the help of these appliances.

Avoid going out on wet and rainy days. Do not wear wet clothes or cover yourself with a wet blanket. After taking a shower, dry your body thoroughly and blow dry your hair.
