It's not good to have a cold in the changing seasons, this baby should eat more! The fragrance is so fragrant that it bursts, and it also clears away heat and dampness!
With the change of seasons, the temperature gradually changes, and many people are prone to catching a cold at this time.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that seasonal colds are mostly related to excessive dampness and decreased immunity in the body. At this time, in addition to medicines, we can also regulate the body through dietary therapy to prevent and **colds. Today, as an experienced old Chinese medicine practitioner, I would like to introduce you to a magical ingredient - barley.
Barley, also known as coix seed, barley rice, etc., is a common Chinese herbal medicine, which has the effects of clearing heat and dispelling dampness, diluting water and infiltrating moisture. In the clinical application of traditional Chinese medicine, barley is often used for symptoms such as dampness and heat, edema, etc. In addition, modern medical research has also shown that barley is rich in a variety of nutrients, such as protein, vitamins, minerals, etc., which help to enhance immunity, lower blood sugar, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects.
