after middle age, the Yin Qi in the body begins to increase and the Yang Qi gradually subsides, which is the natural law of life. With the growth of Yin Qi, many excess turbid substances have accumulated in the body, which is called “Yin poison” in traditional Chinese medicine.
“Yin poison” that middle-aged people must excrete:
1 and water poison
. The most serious Yin poison is water poison, which is generally caused by renal weakness. People over the age of 40 should note that if they get up in the morning, their lower eyelids and ankles are swollen, it is likely to be water turbidity. If you want to expel water poison, you must first see a doctor to check whether there are diseases in the kidney and heart. If water poison is caused by poor renal function, you can take Jinkui Shenqi Pill to mobilize the gasification ability of the body by warming the kidney; If there is no disease in the kidney and heart, it means that the Qi and blood are not running well and need more exercise. You can eat more towel gourd and white gourd in addition to water and moisture in your diet.
2 and dampness
dampness are abnormal forms of water, which are transformed from water. People with dampness in the body generally show white and greasy tongue coating, nausea, do not want to eat, irregular stool, etc. Dampness toxin is mainly caused by deficiency of spleen qi and inability to remove dampness. Among the foods we often eat, beans are the most nourishing to the spleen, and can be boiled into porridge with all kinds of beans; It can also be stewed with Codonopsis pilosula and Atractylodes macrocephala, which has a good effect of strengthening the spleen and dehumidification, raising clear and reducing turbidity.
3. Phlegm poison
some people keep spitting in the morning, which means there is phlegm poison. Phlegm toxin is usually caused by diet or poor lung function. If the trachea is bad and there is too much phlegm, you can drink Erchen decoction to cure it. Once you take medicine, 10 grams of Poria cocos, Pinellia ternata and tangerine peel, and 6 grams of licorice, boil it with water, and drink it for 7 days. On the daily diet, radish is the best phlegm food. You can buy raw radish and add some balsamic vinegar to eat; In addition, you can also eat white gourd, fig, laver, Siraitia grosvenorii and other heat clearing and phlegm resolving products.
4. Lipotoxicity
people with lipotoxicity are generally fat and have more fat. They often drink, eat meat and eat fried food, which is very harmful to the liver and easy to get fatty liver and other diseases. If you want to eliminate lipid toxicity, you should first reduce blood lipid. It is recommended to drink boiled water with hawthorn and lotus leaves, which can reduce phlegm and lipid; Usually should eat more onions and other vegetables; You can also press and knead the Fenglong point on the lower leg (8 inches above the tip of the lateral ankle, outside the Tiaokou point, at the two transverse fingers from the front edge of the tibia), which can eliminate food stagnation and reduce fat.
5 and blood stasis poison
blood stasis poison refers to the poison hidden in the blood. Most of them begin to appear in middle age. They are generally manifested as purple vein under the tongue, easy forgetfulness, dry skin, chest tightness, suffocation, dark face, etc. People with blood stasis poison can take Danqi tablets, or soak Salvia miltiorrhiza or Hawthorn in water, which can promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis and remove vascular waste.
6 and gas poison
gas poison is the poison in the lung. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that “the lung controls Qi” and “the kidney controls Qi”. People with gas poison often have poor lung and kidney function. Generally, they smell a lot, such as bad breath and sweat. In order to prevent gas poisoning, you can get up early every day and take a deep breath, that is, “breathing and breathing”, to discharge the turbid gas from the lungs and keep the air fresh in the body.
it is worth mentioning that the liver is the largest detoxification factory of the human body. If you want to eliminate toxins, you should fundamentally protect the liver and nourish the liver so that it can detoxify and detoxify. It is suggested to drink medlar and chrysanthemum in water, eat more mulberry and all kinds of fresh vegetables.
