2024-02-26
The Lingnan region is relatively humid, especially when returning to the south, it can easily affect the circulation of the spleen and stomach in the human body. How to nourish the liver, protect the spleen, soothe the liver and stomach during this season? Several experts from the Department of Hepatology at Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine are here to offer suggestions for everyone. The dampness in Huinan Tian is heavy when kneading and pressing one acupoint to soothe the liver and stomach. In Guangzhou, the dampness in Huinan Tian is very heavy, affecting the function of spleen and stomach circulation, and easily causing a feeling of fullness and bloating in the epigastric region. Professor Jiang Junmin, Director of the Hepatology Department of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, has taught you a small trick: massaging the back acupoint in the middle of the cheek acupuncture system can improve symptoms such as abdominal fullness and diarrhea. The back acupoint is located at the temporomandibular joint of the cheek. When the mouth is gently opened and closed, the temporomandibular joint can be felt to be moving. Identify the temporomandibular joint and press a small depression below it. Gently massage with the fingertips of your index finger here, gradually increasing the force until you feel a noticeable sense of soreness and bloating (usually about 30 times in the same direction), which can improve the feeling of fullness and bloating in the epigastric region, and have the effects of strengthening the spleen, digestion, soothing the liver, and stomach. Try rubbing the abdomen and moxibustion for bloating due to food stagnation. During the Spring Festival, if you eat too much or too much food, you may experience gastrointestinal discomfort due to food stagnation, especially for friends with liver disease who have poor digestive function and are more likely to experience bloating. Dr. Cai Gaoshu, Deputy Chief Physician of the Hepatology Department of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, will introduce two small tricks to solve this problem. First move: Rub the abdomen. Close your fingers together and slowly knead clockwise with the navel as the center, spreading outwards like a circle, with light to heavy force, repeating several times. Be careful not to rub counterclockwise, otherwise the more you rub, the more bloated your stomach will become. Symptoms such as stomach noise, belching, obstructing breath, or increased bowel movements during or after kneading are normal reactions and do not require special treatment. It is generally recommended to lie in bed and rub your abdomen after waking up in the morning, before going to bed at night, or two hours after finishing dinner during the day. If conditions do not allow, you can also rub your stomach just after finishing your meal, but at this time, you should stand and rub, and be careful not to use too much force. The second move: Moxibustion. Moxibustion on the navel or Zusanli is also a good choice. Moxibustion should be done once or twice a day, with each session lasting no more than 20 minutes. How to reduce the burden on the liver after indulging in two healthy tea drinks to share the worries of the liver, good wine and delicious food? Dr. Wu Shuduo, Deputy Chief Physician of the Hepatology Department of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, suggests reducing alcohol intake and consuming beverages with high sugar content. It is recommended to use tea drinks instead, such as Pu'er tea and oolong tea; Secondly, pay attention to eating more vegetables, avoid fruits with high sugar content and too sweet, eat more high protein and low-fat foods, and eat less viscera; When it comes to cooking methods, try not to use deep frying and choose stewing. This will lower the calorie intake and reduce our overall calorie intake, thereby reducing the burden on the liver and gastrointestinal tract. Another thing is to pay attention to combining diet with exercise. After a big meal, you can try these two tea drinks: the first one is to brew 3g of tangerine peel, 5g of buckwheat malt, and an appropriate amount of oolong tea together to make a substitute tea drink that can soothe the liver and reduce fat in the stomach, which can reduce the burden on the liver and gastrointestinal tract. The second step: Put 3g of dried tangerine peel or 5g of spring sand kernel into a cup, add an appropriate amount of boiling water, cover and soak for 10 minutes, let it cool, and drink a small amount multiple times to reduce bloating. Reminder: Liver disease patients should avoid drinking excessively. Many people may ask: I know I have chronic liver disease, but it is difficult to completely avoid drinking during holidays and festivals, and then quit drinking after holidays
