Since the start of construction, many friends have had different phlegm situations, and today I will focus on the problem of phlegm.
Phlegm is a substance that makes people feel dirty and frowning, but,From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, phlegm can be regarded as a "barometer" of lung healthTo detect the health of our lungs, especially the change in color may reflect different pathological processes.
What we need to do is not to suppress cough, but according to the color and state of phlegm, which Chinese patent medicine should be used to reduce phlegm? What foods should be avoided?
White phlegm is lung cold
The endless runny nose and endless white phlegm, Xiaoqinglong granules, dispel the cold and drain the phlegm and dampness
White phlegm is shaped like foam the most. Most of them are caused by cold at the beginning, coughing and feeling that there is always white phlegm in the throat, the nose is not breathing, the nose is runny, and the tongue coating is white and slippery.
Xiaoqinglong granules: ephedra, cinnamon branches, white peony, dried ginger, fine spice, boiled licorice, Fabanxia, schisandra.
The outside cold comes in from the pores, and ephedra and cinnamon branches are used to dissipate the outside cold, and the ephedra is warm and divergent, which can make people sweat, in order to disperse the cold.
Those who drink sick phlegm should be warmed with medicine", fine pungent and warm lungs, half summer pungent and warm, dry and damp phlegm. Banxia and fine pungent are both pungent and warm medicines, including ephedra and cinnamon branches that we mentioned earlier, which are also warm and dry in nature, which is easy to hurt yin, white peony and schisandra come in handy, with the two of them to nourish yin and nourish Jin, you can avoid this phenomenon.
If you have mugwort patches at home, use them together, the effect of cold removal will be better, Xiaoqinglong soup will stop when you are sick, and you can't take it for a long time.
Yellow phlegm is lung fever
If there is yellow phlegm in the throat, you can't cough it up and can't swallow it, and you can no longer get stuck by phlegm
Yellow phlegm is a manifestation of hot phlegm in the lungs or hot phlegm.
The original appearance of phlegm is fluid, so we will find that there are too many problems caused by phlegm dampness and blood stasis. Regarding the Qingqi phlegm pill, there was a medical scientist named Fei Boxiong in the Qing Dynasty, and Mr. Fei once said that this prescription "cures phlegm and has fire".
Lung clearing and phlegm dissolving pills: Fabanxia, gall south star, citrus aurantium, skullcap, bitter almond, Sichuan fritillary, ephedra, melon seed, coltsfoot flower, white soybean seed, tangerine peel, sulforaphane seed, Poria cocos, bellflower, licorice.
The main purpose of gall star is to clear heat and dissolve phlegm; Guaron kernels can clear phlegm and heat; Skullcap can vent lung fire and dampness; Banxia can be dry and damp, dissolve phlegm and disperse knots; Almonds can enter the lung meridian and straighten out lung qi; Tangerine peel can enter the spleen meridian and lung meridian, effectively straighten out the qi of the middle and upper cokes, and can dissolve phlegm; Citrus aurantium can actually do qi and wide-chested.
The use of almonds, tangerine peel, and citrus aurantium is mainly to regulate the qi, and the phlegm is eliminated when the qi is flowing; Poria cocos, on the other hand, is to strengthen the spleen and promote dampness, and eliminate the source of phlegm, which is really complete.
In addition, while taking the medicine, remember to eat as little sour food as possible: yogurt, hawthorn, lemon. Because the sour taste can be astringent, it has the effect of astringency and astringency, and affects phlegm.
Mucus phlegm in the spleen
There is often phlegm in the throat, chest swelling, Erchen pills, and smooth chest
If there is no cold, this phlegm is not yellow, not thick, old stuck in the throat, it is necessary to consider the source of phlegm, sticky phlegm in the spleen to dispel dampness, because phlegm and dampness are not separated, phlegm dampness and phlegm dampness, first there is dampness, more dampness, and slowly more stubborn phlegm will be formed.
Erchen pills: banxia, tangerine peel, boiled licorice, poria cocos.
Erchen Tang is known as the first party to dissolve phlegm, and the Chinese patent medicine is called Erchen Pill, which can cure the lungs and spleen, not only to dissolve the phlegm in the lungs, but also to dissolve the phlegm in the spleen and stomach, so that the phlegm that is transported upward to the lungs is less.
There is Banxia, there is tangerine peel, these two flavors of medicine are first-class masters of phlegm, Banxia is dry and damp to dissolve phlegm, tangerine peel regulates gas and dissolves phlegm, strong combination, and Poria cocos dispels dampness, so that phlegm has no way to grow!
3 kinds of phlegm-prone foods, less touching during phlegm coughing
If you want to completely solve the phlegm removal, in addition to using Chinese patent medicines to dissolve phlegm, the key is to find the source of phlegm: the spleen is the source of phlegm, and the spleen often comes from diet and daily life.
1. Raw and cold foodThere is a saying in traditional Chinese medicine that "if you drink cold in the form of cold, you will hurt your lungs", and if you drink raw and cold things after the body is cold, it will hurt the lungs, spleen and stomach. In addition to the fruit that cannot be eaten, remember to change green tea to black tea, and warm tea is the most nourishing.
2. Meat foodMeat contains more protein and fat, which is relatively difficult to digest, and after eating too much meat food, it is easy to hurt the spleen and stomach.
3. MilkWhen the body's spleen and stomach function is weak, the milk drunk cannot be well transported, so in the end it can only be turned into excess water and damp phlegm drink, which exists in the body, and in the end it will only cough up more phlegm.
Finally, remember not to stay up late, go to bed early to rest, don't be too busy, and adjust the time for your body.
