⭐面紅可細分為滿面通紅兩顴潮紅
⭐實火虛火要識分
#星期一踢走BlueMonday

面紅代表氣血好？
很多人認為面色紅潤代表氣血好，不過從中醫角度來看，面色偏紅可能與熱證有關，如果身體出現手心潮熱、多汗、口渴、小便短黃、大便乾結等症狀，就代表身體有熱，熱可來自虛火或實火，長期熬夜、產後、更年期人士易有虛火，症狀為兩顴潮紅，因為體內陰氣不足，需要滋陰，宜適量進食有滋陰功效的食物例如雪耳、百合、雪梨、石斛、麥冬、蜂蜜等改善症狀。
實火是指陽氣超出正常水平，過量進補、多吃燒烤、火鍋、煎炸、辛辣食物都容易導致熱氣，症狀為滿面通紅、口乾、口臭、生暗瘡、小便黃等，需要清熱，除了適量飲用涼茶，亦可適量進食有清熱功效的食材例如冬瓜、青瓜、西瓜、火龍果、奇異果等。

What do flushed cheeks mean?
Many people think having flushed cheeks means they have a good blood and qi circulation, but from the perspective of Chinese Medicine, it can also be a heat-related symptom. If a person has warm and sweaty palms, hard and dry stools, sweats profusely, feels thirty regularly, and experiences a decreased output of urine that is yellowish, this means heat has already accumulated in the person’s body.

There are two categories of heat: asthenic heat and excessive heat. People who sleep late, women who have just given birth, and those with menopause tend to have asthenic heat, and having flushed cheeks is one of the symptoms. This is due to the lack of the yin energy. Hence, individuals with this condition need to nourish the yin and consume ingredients such as snow fungus, lily bulb, snow pear, dendrobium, radix ophiopogonis, and honey.

On the other hand, excessive heat refers to the accumulation of the yang energy. Heat would accumulate in a person’s body when he or she consumes grilled, fried, and spicy foods excessively. Likewise, symptoms may be flushed cheeks, dry mouth, bad breath, acnes, and urine in yellow color. To eliminate heat from the body, consume an appropriate amount of herbal tea and ingredients such as winter gourd, cucumber, watermelon, dragon fruit, and kiwi.

【生育大計】不孕的成因很多

⭐避孕藥要遵從醫生指示食用
⭐停藥後記得留意月經狀況
#星期三CheckCheckMail

避孕藥吃久了會不孕？
張太：「我長期服用避孕藥，聽說吃久了容易有不孕問題？」

CheckCheckCin：口服避孕藥含有人工合成的雌激素及黃體素，女生在雌激素持續偏高時卵巢便不會排卵，而黃體素濃度高時子宮頸會增加分泌物阻礙精子通過，從而達到避孕效果。其實現時有售的避孕藥藥效很短，所以需要每天服用，停藥後當月經開始出現正常，就表示排卵功能已經恢復。在停藥後建議先讓月經恢復2至3個正常周期，才開始嘗試懷孕，如果期間發現月經周期、來經日子及經血量有異常情況，或者停藥多時仍未能正常懷孕，建議諮詢註冊中醫師了解狀況調理身體。

材料：紅米、白米、黑芝麻、黑豆
功效：補救熬夜、烏髮養腎、紓緩腰痠

Would taking contraceptive pills lead to infertility?
“I take contraceptive pills quite regularly, and I heard they might cause infertility?”

CheckCheckCin: Oral contraceptives contain synthetic estrogen and progesterone. High estrogen level will prevent ovaries from ovulating, and high progesterone level will encourage the cervix to produce secretion that can stop the sperms from entering. This is basically how a contraceptive pill works.

As the medicinal effect of contraceptive pills available in the market is short, individuals would need to consume it on a daily basis. A person’s period would resume and the ovulation process begins once she stops taking the pills.

Once you have stopped taking the contraceptive pills, it is best to go through 2 to 3 rounds of menstruation first before trying to conceive. If there is something amiss with the menstruation cycle, date, and menstrual blood, consult a registered and licensed Chinese medicine practitioner. Seek professional advice as well if you are failing to conceive even after you have stopped taking contraceptive pills for a long time.

✔Recommendation: Dusk rice water
Ingredients: Red Rice, White Rice, Black Sesame, Black Soya Bean
Effects: remedy to frequent late nights, improve hair quality and nourish kidneys, relieve sore lower back

【男人之苦】明明尿急但出現「滴滴仔」

⭐排尿困難宜盡早求醫
⭐夜尿頻多可能是壓力引致
#星期一踢走BlueMonday

男人最怕點滴尿？
身為男人，你認為小便射程遠近與性能力有關嗎？答案是絕無關係！小便射程遠近與膀胱及尿道的功能狀態有關，但如果出現點滴尿就要注意是否前列腺問題。隨着年紀增長，位於膀胱下的前列腺會自然增生，壓迫膀胱與尿道，令排尿異常而出現尿頻、小便不順暢、排尿無力、斷續而出、夜尿次數增加甚至尿不出等情況。
中醫理論認為前列腺肥大主要由氣滯、痰濕、濕熱等濕重狀況引起，水濕運化不暢，阻塞膀胱及尿道，如伴隨胸悶、胃口差、尿頻但尿量少而黃，宜行氣利尿清熱；如伴隨症狀為神疲乏力、怕冷、腰膝酸軟、尿頻但尿量少等，則要益腎溫陽利水。
男士步入中年，應預防前列腺問題，平日積極養生可未病先防：飲食宜清淡、少生冷及辛辣刺激；多走動，因為久坐會令前列腺長期受壓；適量進食養腎食物如夕米水、淮山、何首烏、枸杞、栗子、腰果等。

補腎緩解尿頻茶療：小紅莓桑椹蓮子茶
功效：疏肝補腎，紓緩抑鬱情緒、心神不寧、尿頻等症狀。
材料：小紅莓4-5粒、桑椹9克、枸杞子9克、蓮子20克
做法：材料洗淨，加入1000毫升水，武火煮滾後轉文火煮20分鐘，可倒入保溫瓶反覆沖泡至味淡。建議連續飲用1-2天。

材料：紅米、白米、黑芝麻、黑豆
功效：補救熬夜、烏髮養腎、紓緩腰痠

Men worried about after-dribble?

Do you think the strength of the urinary stream in men has to do with their sexual prowess? The answer is no, because the strength of the urinary stream is closely associated with the functions of the bladder and urethra. If after-dribble occurs, then we need to pay attention to the prostate.

As we age, the prostate, which is located beneath the bladder, will elongate and press against the bladder and urethra. This will cause irregular urination problems such as frequent urination, urinary retention, weak urine stream, inconsistent urination, nocturia (frequent urination at night), and even anuria (non-passage of urine).

Chinese Medicine theories opine that prostate enlargement is caused by phlegm-dampness and damp heat. When the circulation of fluid in the body is affected, its circulation in the bladder and urethra would also stagnate.

If this happens alongside other accompanying symptoms such as chest tightness, appetite loss, frequent urination but with a small volume of urine, it is best for us to clear the heat and eliminate the dampness from the body. If the accompanying symptoms are fatigue, aversion to cold, weakness and soreness in the knees, frequent urination with a large volume of urine, we need to strengthen the kidneys and promote urination.

Upon entering middle age, men should take good care of their health whether they have a prostate problem or not. Since prevention is better than cure, have lighter diets and avoid consuming raw and cold food and beverages. Go for a brisk walk regularly as sitting for long hours can extra pressure on the prostate gland. Consume an appropriate amount of ingredients that can nourish the kidneys such as dusk rice water, Chinese yam, Polygonum multiflorum (‘he shou wu’), wolfberry, chestnut, and cashew nut.

Tea to soothe frequent urination and replenish the kidneys:
Cranberry and mulberry tea with lotus seeds

Effects: Soothes the liver and replenishes the kidneys. Relieves depression, restlessness, and frequent urination.

Ingredients: 4-5 cranberries, 9g mulberry, 9g wolfberries, 20g lotus seeds

Preparation: Rinse all ingredients thoroughly. Combine all ingredients with 1000ml of water and cook on high heat until boiling. Turn to low heat and simmer for 20 minutes. This tea can be re-brewed until its flavour weakens. Drink consecutively for 1-2 days for best results.

✔Recommendation: Dusk rice water
Ingredients: Red Rice, White Rice, Black Sesame, Black Soya Bean
Effects: remedy to frequent late nights, improve hair quality and nourish kidneys, relieve sore lower back
