行氣食材助疏肝
「疏肝」是廣東話抒發鬱結、心情暢快的意思,究竟與肝有何關係?其實「疏肝」一詞出自中醫,中醫理論認為肝主疏泄、調節情志,角色就像體內的交通督導員,專責保持全身經脈道路暢通,如果肝功能失調導致肝鬱,就會令情緒鬱悶,出現頭痛、多嘆氣、多打嗝或放屁、胃痛、大便不調、失眠等症狀;如果肝能順利疏泄,精神情緒就能愉悅。
當人遇上壓力或不快事情,容易氣頂或氣結難下,這種鬱悶感覺直接令體內氣血不順,阻礙肝臟的疏泄工作。所以遇上情緒問題,除了控制及發洩情緒,適量進食行氣食物,例如白蘿蔔、陳皮、五指毛桃、金桔、玫瑰花等,有助氣血運行,改善肝鬱氣滯的情況。
白蘿蔔 — 性寒,具順氣寬中、健胃消食、清熱利尿、生津止渴的功效,尤其適合氣滯、血瘀體質人士食用,有行氣功效;而氣虛體弱、虛喘氣短、容易腹瀉、陽虛體質不宜食用,正在服用補氣中藥亦要避免,否則影響藥效。
陳皮 — 性溫,能理氣健脾、燥濕化痰,紓緩寒痰、腹部脹痛、孕婦及宿醉人士的作悶欲吐等,適合有壓力、氣滯、血瘀、痰濕體質人士服用。
五指毛桃 — 性平,有健脾補肺、行氣利濕、舒筋活絡功效,尤其適合氣虛、脾虛人士服用。
金桔 — 性溫,有理氣解鬱、消食化痰的作用,對於有胸悶氣結、心情鬱悶的人最為適合,同時可紓緩因肝氣鬱結而引起食慾不振。脾胃氣虛者不宜多吃。
玫瑰花 — 性溫,有疏肝解鬱、行氣活血作用。因為有活血功效,月經期間不宜飲用。
✔推介茶療:疏肝
材料:玫瑰花、桂花、佛手、佛手花
功效:行氣解鬱,紓緩忙碌、經常嘆氣、精神壓力大、月經不適等症狀。
注意:孕婦及月經期間不宜飲用。

Relieve stress with ingredients that improve qi circulation
Soothing the liver, or ‘soh gon’ in Cantonese, means to relieve stress and improve our mood, but what has this got to do with the liver?
The term ‘soh gon’ actually derived from Chinese Traditional Medicine. According to its theory, liver is the central system that promotes circulation and dispersion, as well as regulates the emotions. It functions like a traffic warden of the body, who is in charge of ensuring the smooth circulation of the Meridians.
Individuals whose liver lose the function to regulate the body will experience emotional stress, headache; tend to sigh, burp or fart; suffer from stomach upset, abnormal stool consistency, and insomnia. If the liver is able to perform its functions well, our emotions will be stable and we will be in better spirit.
When we are stressed or experience unhappy events, we would experience the stagnation of the qi and blood, and this will inhibit the liver from performing its duty. Therefore, when we encounter emotional problems, we should learn to control ourselves and vent our frustrations appropriately. At the same time, consume food that will help improve qi circulation, such as white radish, dried citrus peel, hairy fig root, kumquat and rose flower, as these ingredients can improve the liver’s function to circulate and disperse, thus relieving the problem of stagnation.
White radish – cold in nature; can improve qi circulation, strengthen the stomach and aid digestion, induce diuresis and quench one’s thirst. It is especially suitable for individuals with conditions such as qi stagnation and blood stasis, as it promotes the qi circulation. It is not suitable for individuals with weakness of qi and body, as well as people who experience shortness of breath, prone to having diarrhea, and are deficient of the yang energy. Individuals who are taking Chinese medicine to replenish qi should avoid eating white radish, as it will inhibit the medicinal effect.
Dried citrus peel – warm in nature; can improve qi circulation and strengthen the spleen, dispel dampness and clear phlegm; relieve phlegm caused by cold, bloating, as well the nauseous feeling pregnant women and individuals who get hangovers would experience. It is also suitable for individuals who are under a lot of stress, experience qi stagnation, blood stasis and those with the phlegm-dampness body condition.
Hairy fig root – mild in nature; can strengthen the spleen and nourish the lungs; improve the circulation of qi and dispersion of dampness in the body, stimulate the circulation of the Meridians. It is especially suitable for individuals who experience qi deficiency and with a weak spleen.
Verified
Kumquat – warm in nature; can improve qi circulation and relieve stress, aid digestion and clear phlegm, suitable for individuals with chest tightness and with emotional problems. Kumquat can also improve appetite loss, which is caused by the qi stagnation in the liver. Those with qi deficiency in the spleen and stomach should limit the intake of kumquat.
Rose – warm in nature, can soothe the liver and relieve stress, improve the circulation of the qi and blood. Women during the menstrual period should not consume, as it promotes blood circulation.
✔Beauty Tea Recommendation:
Stress
Ingredients: Rose, Sweet Osmanthus, Fingered Citron, Fingered Citron Flower
Effects: Promotes qi circulation and relieves stagnation. Suitable for busy lifestyle, frequent sighing, stressfulness and menstrual discomfort
Note:Not suitable for pregnant or menstruating women.
✔Herbal Tea Recommendation:

Four ingredients to improve sleep quality
Chinese medicine studies believe summer is the time to nourish the heart, because this particular season belongs to the fire element, and the fiery qi passes through the heart. Moreover, the hot weather increases perspiration, as the Chinese saying goes, “sweat is the fluid of the heart”, excessive sweating can easily damage the qi of the heart, causing people to feel frustrated and disturbed, which subsequently affects our sleep quality.
As another Chinese saying goes, “red enters the heart”, which means foods that are red in color can replenish the qi and blood and improve blood circulation. For instance, wolfberries, red beans and red dates. Appropriate use of naturally red foods can nourish the blood, and is especially beneficial for individuals with qi and blood deficiency, as they can give us a radiant facial complexion, nourish the heart and mind, and help us sleep better.
Wolfberry – mild in nature; nourishes the kidney and liver; can replenish the qi, strengthen the joints and bones, and brighten the vision. Since wolfberry also nourishes the blood of the liver, it is suitable for people whose liver and kidney suffer from Yin deficiency. Consuming it can also alleviate soreness of the waist and knees, dizziness and improve blurred vision, as well as the dry eye syndrome. Individuals with loose stools and issues with spleen deficiency, and those with diarrhea problem should not consume it excessively.
Red bean – mild in nature; can replenish the blood and stomach, improve concentration, and strengthen the qi and blood. It is suitable for everyone to consume, but anyone who still experiences coughing should eat with caution.
Chinese date – warm in nature; can replenish the qi and blood, and nourish the spleen. It is suitable for individuals with qi and blood deficiency, and cold body conditions. Those with exuberant qi and blood, hot body conditions, and people who easily develop acne and with constipation issues are not encouraged to consume excessively.
Lotus seed – mild in nature; can calm the heart and mind, strengthen the spleen and relieve diarrhea, and replenish the kidney. It will also improve the qi and blood, reduce anxiety, alleviate insomnia and excessive dreaming, women’s excessive virginal discharge and men’s nocturnal emission (wet dream). Individuals prone to constipation and stomach bloating should limit its intake.
✔ Recommendation: Red Bean Rice Water
Effects: Achieves rosy complexion, calms the mind and improve sleep, replenishes blood and nourish the stomach

【健康度夏】夏天就是要和陽光玩遊戲☀️
⭐️但要經常補水小心中暑
⭐️有不適症狀就要休息一下
#星期一踢走BlueMonday
留意中暑七大症狀
炎炎夏日,無論是需要戶外工作,或者進行戶外活動時都要提防中暑,當環境溫度過高,身體機能未能有效調節體溫,進而產生不適症狀,中暑便會發生。所以無論工作或玩樂時,多留意身邊人有否出現以下不適症狀:
- 面色潮紅
- 頭暈、頭痛
- 胸悶噁心
- 大量出汗,亦可能乾燥無汗
- 四肢無力或抽筋
- 呼吸急促,心跳快速
- 精神不能集中
中醫理論認為中暑多屬虛症,如果本身過度疲勞又睡眠不足,都會因為天氣過熱,暑氣過盛形成暑邪,令身體失去平衡導致中暑。而小童、長者、長期病如心臟病或高血壓患者,以及過胖人士都較容易中暑。
如果同行的人出現中暑不適症狀,宜立即將他移到陰涼處,脫去多餘衣物讓患者散熱。用濕毛巾擦拭身體或搧風,盡量為患者降溫。讓患者喝水或運動飲料補充水份,並宜盡快送醫治理。

Seven symptoms of heat stroke
Whenever we engage in outdoor activities, we need to be cautious of heat stroke that might strike during this hot summer. When the environment’s temperature is too high and our body is unable to adjust accordingly, we will experience discomfort, which can lead to heat stroke. Be it at work or play, we should take note of people around us with the following symptoms:
- Flushed face
- Dizziness and headache
- Chest tightness and nausea
- Heavy sweating, or absence of sweating too
- Weak limbs or muscle cramps
- Shortness of breath, fast heart rate
- Inability to stay focused
Chinese medicine theorized heat stroke as a case of deficiency-related conditions. Individuals suffering from fatigue in addition to insomnia might lose the ability to regulate their body temperature, and eventually suffer from heat stroke under summer heat. Children, seniors, patients with chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease and hypertension, as well as individuals who are obese might have a heat stroke easily.
If anyone around you exhibits heat stroke symptoms, it is best to move them to a cooler place, and remove any extra clothing on them to dissipate body heat more effectively. Use a wet towel to cool the body, or fan the body to reduce the temperature. Give the patient some water or isotonic drink, and have him or her sent for treatment as soon as possible.
