Is this a common issue during summer?” CheckCheckCin: Despite having normal diets, we might still end up with excessive heat when exposed to the hot summer weather.  The condition might get worse when we stay up late, consume alcohol, eat junk food, feel stressed, have lack of rest, and are exposed to the scorching sun. Heat-related symptoms such as sore throat, dry mouth, bad oral odor, hard stools, and even fever might develop. We can consume fruits that are slightly cool in nature. For instance, dragon fruit and watermelon. We can also have apples, which is mild in nature. Drinking herbal teas such as corn silk tea, sour plum soup, and juice made from bamboo cane, cogongrass, and red carrot can also clear heat. Avoid hotpot, barbecue, deep fried and greasy foods, or any foods that are warm in nature. If the condition persists, consult registered and licensed Chinese physicians.

足本睇片👉🏼：https://bit.ly/3ctkb5w 現代人工作忙碌壓力大，或者經常出外用膳，很容易出現血壓高問題。註冊中醫師黃晶晶表示，中醫認為血壓高與肝腎相關，香港人長期處於高壓狀態，會影響肝腎功能，例如焦慮、情緒焦急或者做事心急，而且有些睡眠質素差症狀，都是肝火旺盛、肝陽過盛情況。另外，長期過勞會令腎氣虧虛，引致腰膝痠軟、夜尿 精神不集中、頭髮易脫落等問題，肝火旺盛、腎氣虛時，很容易有頭昏腦脹、耳鳴問題。另外痰濕體質，即是體形比較肥胖人士，患上高血壓風險比較高。 除了飲用清肝火散鬱湯水或泡茶之外，中醫師推介食用香蕉、蘋果、雪梨、檸檬等高鉀水果，海帶、木耳、蓮藕蔬菜，都是可以降血壓的食物。 清肝火散鬱湯水 夏枯草海帶湯 材料： 夏枯草30克 海帶 2條 蜜棗 1個 陳皮 半個 瘦肉 300克 生薑 2片 做法： 浸泡海帶後洗掉沙石，洗淨其他材料，瘦肉汆水，加水大火煲10分鐘後轉慢火煲60分鐘。一星期飲用二至三次。 夏枯草清肝火、散鬱結，海帶有下火、化痰軟堅作用，搭配陳皮可以和胃。這個湯水性質偏寒涼，體質虛寒或者正值經期女士不建議飲用過多。 清肝火降血壓泡茶 菊花杞子茶 材料： 菊花 5克 杞子 5克 決明子 5克 做法： 洗淨所有材料，加入熱水浸泡15分鐘即成，重複浸泡二至三次至味道變淡。一星期飲用四至五次。 杞子和菊花都有明目功效，杞子可以滋補肝腎，菊花則清肝火，而決明子有降血壓、降血脂的作用。這個茶飲十分適合高血壓或血脂高人士飲用，但腸易激綜合症或容易腹瀉人士不建議飲用過多。 採訪、攝影：《飲食男女》 #飲食男女 #香港 #香港美食 #美食 #852food #hkfood #instafood #foodie #yum #hkfoodie #血壓高 #高血壓 #肝火旺 #腎氣虛 #腎虛 #中醫師 #中醫 #杞子茶 #降血壓
