潤肺食物吃出白滑肌
中醫理論認為肌膚狀態反映著臟腑的健康狀況，所以想美白肌膚要從內到外著手，中醫有「肺主皮毛」之說，皮膚質素視乎肺部健康，如果肺氣強，氣血運行暢順，皮膚都會較為細嫩有光澤。
五色中以「白色入肺」，適量進食白色食物有助美白肌膚，大部分以「白」為名的藥材皆入肺，例如白朮、白芍、白茯苓等，亦可以適量進食有潤肺美白功效的白色食物，例如補中益氣又潤肺的百合、滋陰潤肺的雪耳、補肺氣的淮山、補肺健脾的薏米、潤肺潤腸的南杏、改善肺氣虛弱的白果等。
除了肺，亦要注意肝和脾的健康，因為肝鬱氣滯容易出黑眼圈，脾氣虛弱亦會導致面黃水腫，每日一杯米水健脾胃，適當地疏肝減壓，亦有助改善面色和肌膚狀況。
白果腐竹薏米糖水
功效：潤肺養顏，清熱祛濕。
材料：白果15粒、腐竹1塊、生薏米20克、冰糖適量
做法：
1. 材料洗淨，白果剝殼去芯；腐竹浸水至稍為軟身備用。
2. 鍋中加入約1000毫升水，放入全部材料，武火煮至水滾，調文火煮約45分鐘至軟身，最後以冰糖調味即可。
小貼士：想腐竹完全溶化令糖水如豆漿般滑溜，除了腐竹要新鮮不要買了回家後放太久才使用，記得先將腐竹浸水至少10分鐘。如果煲完仍然想見到一片片腐竹，可以先放五分之四腐竹去煲，最後四分之一腐竹與冰糖同煮即可。

Foods that moisten the lungs will give you fair and smooth skin
According to Chinese medicine theories, our skin condition reflects the health of our organs, so if we wish to own a fair and smooth skin, we need to take care of our body from within. There is a saying in Chinese medicine: “The lungs are the masters of the skin and hair”, which means the lungs’ health is reflected in the condition of the skin. If your lung qi is strong, and the circulation of the qi and blood is smooth, we will have a smoother and radiant skin.
As the Chinese saying goes “white enters the lungs”, this means in the study of five colours, foods that are white can brighten our skin. Most of these foods are Chinese medicines, such as atractylodes rhizome, white peony, and poria.
Similarly, we can also consume an appropriate amount of lily bulb, which nourishes the qi and moistens the lungs; snow fungus, which nourishes and moistens the lungs; Chinese yam, which nourishes lung qi; coix seed, which nourishes the lungs and strengthens the spleen; sweet almond, which moistens the lungs and intestines; and ginkgo nut, which strengthens lung qi.

【食材百科】三種薏米傻傻分不清？
⭐薏米又名薏苡仁
⭐洋薏米其實是大麥
#星期三CheckCheckMail
生薏米 vs 熟薏米
李小姐：「聽說吃薏米可以祛濕，但怕生薏米太寒涼，吃熟薏米可以嗎？」
CheckCheckCin：從中醫角度來看，生薏米性涼，有清熱、健脾、祛濕的功效，適合痰濕及濕熱體質人士服用。而熟薏米是經炒熟的生薏米，屬性平和，但作用變得較為溫和，通常取其健脾作用，祛濕功效大減。如體質偏寒，烹調生薏米時可加少許生薑同煮，或以屬性平和的茯苓、扁豆衣代替，這些食材性平但均有化濕作用。順帶一提名字類近的洋薏米，是去殼的大麥，與薏米沒有關係，它有健脾及回乳作用，含豐富纖維，有助腸道蠕動。
生薏米 — 性涼，能清熱健脾祛濕，消腫排膿。適合痰濕及濕熱體質人士服用。孕婦、小便頻及便秘人士慎服。
熟薏米 — 性平，是經炒熟的生薏米。作用較溫和，健脾為主。適合氣虛、血虛、陽虛、痰濕、濕熱體質人士服用。孕婦慎服。
洋薏米 — 又稱珍珠麥。是去殼的大麥，有健脾及回乳作用，療效不大。適合各體質人士服用。

Raw coix seed vs Cooked coix seed
“I heard eating coix seed can dispel dampness from the body, but I’m afraid to eat raw coix seed as it is cool in nature. Can I replace it with cooked coix seed?”
CheckCheckCin: From the perspective of Chinese Medicine, raw coix seed is cool in nature and can clear heat, strengthen the spleen, and eliminate dampness from the body. It is suitable for individuals with the phlegm-dampness and damp heat body constitutions.
Cooked coix seed, on the other hand, refers to raw coix seed that has been cooked, and it is mild in nature. Cooked coix seed is mainly prepared to strengthen the spleen. In other words, it is not as effective in dispelling dampness.
If you have a cold body constitution, you might want to add raw ginger into your raw coix seed. You can also add poria and hyacinth bean coat, as they are mild in nature. Though these ingredients are mild in nature, it can reduce dampness in the body.
There is also another ingredient called pearl barley. Do note that they are different from the coix seed types discussed above. Pearl barley is barley that has had its outer bran layer removed along its hull. People consume it to strengthen the spleen and suppress lactation. As a food that is high in fiber, it can also promote bowel movements.
Raw Coix Seeds – cool in nature, it can help to clear heat, nourish the spleen, and dispel dampness in body. Suitable for those with phlegm and dampness or damp heat body types. Not recommended for those who are pregnant, constipated or experiencing frequent urination.
Cooked Coix Seeds - mild in nature, is raw coix seeds stir-fried and cooked. It is mild in nature, mainly suitable for nourishing the spleen. Suitable for those with qi deficiency, blood asthenia, yang deficiency, phlegm and dampness, and damp heat body types. Not recommended for those who are pregnant.
Pearl Barley has been polished to remove the bran, suitable for nourishing the spleen and for breastmilk withdrawal. Doesn't have much healing effects, suitable for all body types.

KO討厭暗瘡印
KK：「最近經常生暗瘡，頻密擠暗瘡想令它加速凋謝，但往後的暗瘡印卻久久不散。」
CheckCheckCin：無可否認擠暗瘡的一刻很治癒，但擠壓發炎的毛囊及皮脂腺，換來的就是久久不能退的暗瘡印。如本身屬於氣滯、血瘀體質，體內氣血運行不暢，瘀血積聚於肌膚，聚而不散留下紅印或啡印，便需要活血化瘀，可適量服用活血化瘀功效的藥材，例如赤芍、丹參、紅花、益母草、玫瑰花、山楂等。日常可適量進食有活血化瘀功效的食材，例如蓮藕、山楂、黑木耳、韭菜等有助增加血氣循環，減退痘印。謹記少吃生冷及辛辣食物，兩類食物都會影響氣血運行。如再有暗瘡出現，就要忍忍手不再擠了！

KO the annoying acne scars
“I have an acne outbreak recently, and I always squeeze the pimples out to get rid of them. Yet, these acne always leave scars on the skin.”
CheckCheckCin: No doubt squeezing the acne can be quite satisfying, but we are squeezing the inflamed hair follicles and sebaceous glands at the same time. This is how acne scars occur, and we will have a hard time getting rid of them.
Individuals with the qi-stagnation and blood stasis constitutions will experience blood stagnation beneath the skin, forming marks that are red or brown. Hence, it is important to invigorate the blood and clear the stasis.
To do so, we can consume ingredients such as common peony root, salvia root, safflower, motherwort, rose flower, and Chinese hawthorn. Other ingredients that can invigorate the blood and clear blood stasis are lotus root, Chinese hawthorn, black fungus, and chives. These ingredients can improve the circulation of qi and blood, which can reduce appearance of acne scars.
Avoid eating raw, cold, and spicy food as they can affect the circulation of the qi and blood. Last but not least, resist the urge of squeezing the acne if you experience another outbreak in the future!

Soup to combat nasal allergies
Nasal allergies are a common occurrence in cities. Many urban dwellers are born with weak lungs, prone to getting frequent colds, and have a weaker immune system. Some may sneeze and develop a nose itch and runny nose when they experience a change of temperature.

It takes great patience to treat nasal allergies. Besides drinking soup that can strengthen the qi and moisten the lungs, we need to adjust our lifestyle and avoid eating raw and cold food. Also, do consume ingredients that could nourish the lungs and qi such as Chinese yam, lily bulb, snow fungus, poria, and white hyacinth bean. Remember to consume them according to our body constitutions.
Tips on ingredient:
