【辣得過癮】只要出汗就是袪濕？

#吃辣真的會上癮
#身邊有無辣不歡的朋友嗎
#星期三CheckCheckCin

辣你又懂得吃嗎？
辣妹：「天氣開始涼，人就特別想吃辣。有人說吃辣有助排汗袪濕，對身體更好，是真的嗎？」

CheckCheckCin：在中醫學說，辣又稱為「辛」，具辛味的食材多具有宣散、行氣、祛散風寒、通血脈及發汗的功效，常見的食物包括蔥、生薑、紫蘇、胡椒、辣椒、洋蔥、芫茜、大蒜，多為辛香料。辛味食物大多屬性偏熱，因此有驅寒補暖的功效，對於體質偏寒或是陽虛畏冷者比較適合。有些人說多吃辣可有助排汗祛濕，其實是因為辛香料如薑及胡椒有發汗作用，吃著一碗又熱又辣的食物也自然滿頭大汗，但由於屬性偏熱，加上辛辣食物又多兼有辣油，若碰上身體正處偏熱的狀態時，就可能祛濕不成，反而出現暗瘡、眼乾目赤、便秘／腹瀉及重體味等濕熱的症狀，不得不注意呢！

另外，要注意以下四類人士都不宜吃辛辣：
1／胃部不適者，尤其易有胃痛、胃脹的更應戒辣
2／肝鬱氣滯，辛辣會影響肝臟疏泄，愈吃愈易生氣
3／陰虛火旺，多熬夜人士身體本已虛火上升，火上加油
4／濕熱體質，吃辣若加上油，會加重症狀，愈吃愈濕熱

Eating spicy food properly
“The weather is getting cold and I start to crave spicy food. Some people say eating spicy food can help to promote perspiration and dispel dampness, and it is better for the body. Is it true?”

CheckCheckCin: From a Chinese medicine perspective, spicy ingredient does have the function to dispel, promote qi, dispel cold wind flu, promote blood circulation and promote perspiration. There are some common spicy ingredients such as spring onion, ginger, basil, pepper, chili and onion, cilantro, garlic, which are mostly spicy spices. Most of the spicy foods are hot in nature, so they have the effect of dispelling cold and keeping warm. They are especially suitable for those with cold-related body condition or those with yang deficiency and aversion to cold. Some say eating more spicy food can help perspiration and dispel dampness. However it is the very fact that some spicy spices such as ginger and pepper have the effect of promoting perspiration that cause the sweating after consumption. As it is hot in nature, and there is spicy oil in the food, if your body is in a hot-related state, it cannot help to dispel dampness but cause symptoms such as pimple, dry eyes, constipation/diarrhea and strong body odor. You have to pay attention on it!

In addition, it is important to note that following four types of people should not eat spicy food.
1/ Those with stomach discomfort, those prone to stomach pain and abdominal bloating must not eat spicy foods.
2/ Those with liver depression and qi stagnation, spiciness can negatively liver function. Eating more spicy may make you more irritable.
3/ Those with yin deficiency and excessive fire, the asthenic fire of those who stay up late has already risen. Eating spicy foods will worsen the condition.
4/ Those with damp-heat body condition, eating oily and spicy foods will worsen the symptoms, the more you eat, the more serious the damp-heat symptoms become.

老師這次花了很多時間幫大家整理了 human biology and health care 的單字，為了讓同學不會聽到睡著，老師融入了很多音效...但是建議不要晚上的時候聽，免得被嚇到喔！

老師雖然每次在提供單字表時都會附上中文解釋，但這只是方便學生更快知道這個單字最通用的意思，不代表是它最完整的涵義及用法。除此之外，有心的同學應該進一步使用其它工具查詢，最好是單字，配詞與句子一起背 (死背一個單字是無用的)，再透過經常使用單字的方式，加強自己對單字的認知和應用。當然，你也可以利用老師或字典提供的單字音檔，進而增加自己對單字的辨識能力和發音!

Use the audio file to improve your pronunciation of these words. The file can also be used as a simple listening and spelling test! Further, like I said many times in class, you must learn in context! Do not just learn the vocabulary words and collocation. You must also construct sentences, read articles suitable for your level on the given topic, and then use the new words and phrases in writing. The accumulation of background knowledge is also essential. Always learn in meaningful context!!!
