Why is summer more suitable for removing moisture from the body?

Chinese medicine believes that summer is dry and wet at the right time!

There are three principles suitable for eliminating dampness in summer. One is the theory of "attacking evil", and summer is the best time to attack cold evil in the body and drink evil; Secondly, the theory of "storing yang", spring and summer are yang, which is a good time to store yang in the body; The third is the "five elements theory", which is better than four o'clock, taking the land of long summer, better than the cold water of winter, and born in the lungs of autumn.

Simply put, it is based on the concept of "correspondence between man and nature" in traditional Chinese medicine. Summer is a sunny day, and it is also the most prosperous time for people's yang to flow. Use sunshine to help others, and the two work together to eliminate yin and evil, warm yang to drive away cold and dehumidify!

In fact, Chinese medicine has long had strict logic and methods of eliminating dampness. Huangdi Neijing holds that spleen is the key to transport and eliminate dampness.

Therefore, when moisture invades the body, we must first regulate the spleen and stomach, mainly to strengthen the stomach and nourish the stomach, promote diuresis and seep dampness. When the spleen and stomach are good, the body's ability to expel moisture will naturally become stronger.

Choose adzuki bean, a food that strengthens the spleen and eliminates dampness.

"Herbal Classic Shu" once recorded: Red bean strengthens the spleen and dries the dampness, so the main water is full, stopping diarrhea and promoting diuresis. Modern medicine has also proved that adzuki beans contain anthocyanins, vitamin saponins and other nutrients, which can induce diuresis, reduce swelling, eliminate dampness and strengthen the spleen.
