What are the effects of loofah? Many friends are asking this question, let me tell you below.LoofahThe tips for maintaining health are actually in our daily life. As long as we pay attention, health is everywhere. Let Sina Chinese Medicine Channel teach you two tips for daily health maintenance. The efficacy of loofahMany people don’t know that in addition to being used to wash dishes, loofah can also be used to boil water for drinking, which has the effect of dispelling wind and unblocking the meridians. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that loofah is effective for chest and flank pain, rheumatic pain (various pains caused by rheumatism), meridian cramps, and milk obstruction (milk obstruction in new mothers). The way to obtain loofah is to pick it in autumn when the loofah fruit is ripe, the peel turns yellow, and the inside is dry, rub off the outer skin and flesh, or soak it in water until the peel and flesh rot, take it out, wash it, remove the seeds, and dry it. When needed, cut a small piece and put it in a pot to boil water. Drink the water without eating the residue. Some patients with rheumatism can take it for health care. Summer is the season when fresh loofah is on the market. Although it does not have as obvious health benefits as loofah, eating loofah two or three times a week can also achieve certain health benefits. High-fat dinner may trigger stroke Many people are used to eating high-fat food at night, but this can easily cause ischemic stroke for the elderly. This is because after eating high-fat food at dinner, most of the body's blood is concentrated in the gastrointestinal tract for digestion. This can easily cause insufficient blood supply to the brain. At the same time, eating high-fat food at night can cause blood to thicken at night and blood flow to slow down. In addition, most elderly people have varying degrees of atherosclerosis, and it is easy for them to form cerebral thrombosis in the morning due to occlusion of small brain arteries. Therefore, people with arteriosclerosis, especially the elderly, should pay attention to not eating too greasy dinner or overeating. |
