五大消暑美白水果
夏天陽氣旺盛,養生之道在於消暑,不少人更着重防曬,進行戶外活動除了穿著防曬衣物、塗抹防曬霜,亦可靠食物進行內在美白療程,多進食含豐富維他命C的食物,例如奇異果、士多啤梨、番石榴、車厘子及木瓜等,有助預防黑斑形成及淡化黑色素。水果宜新鮮即切即食,因切後水果的維他命C與空氣接觸後會氧化而失去功效。
奇異果 — 性寒,有清熱生津、健脾、利尿作用,有助紓緩無胃口、消化不良、欲吐、痔瘡等症狀。注意女士脾胃虛寒容易腹瀉、有寒性痛經不宜多服。
士多啤梨 — 性寒,具消暑解熱、生津止渴、利咽潤肺及健脾胃功效。士多啤梨同時含有大量果膠及纖維,亦有暢便功效。但注意脾胃虛寒者勿吃。
番石榴 — 又名芭樂,性熱,具止瀉止痢功效,尤其適合容易反覆腹瀉、風寒濕痛者、高血壓及胃酸過多者食用;有收斂止瀉功效,便秘者不宜進食。由於性熱,多吃容易上火。
車厘子 — 又名櫻桃,性熱,具益氣健脾、祛風濕的功效,適合氣血虛弱、消化不良人士食用,但由於屬性溫熱,食用份量不宜過多,糖尿病患者不宜。
木瓜 — 性平,能健脾胃、幫助消化、消暑解渴,適合脾胃虛弱、容易胃脹不適人士服用,有助紓緩食慾下降、消化不良、胃部不適、產婦乳汁不多等症狀。注意孕婦不宜食用。

Five fruits to clear summer-heat and brighten complexion
During summer, the yang energy is exceptionally strong, and many people tend to focus on clearing the summer-heat and sun protection measures during this season.
Besides wearing sun protective clothing and putting on sunscreen, we can also eat ingredients that can help restore the radiance of our complexion. Consume foods that are high in vitamin C such as kiwi, strawberry, guava, cherry, and papaya to prevent dark spots from forming and reduce melanin.
Once we have the fresh fruits sliced, it is best to consume them as soon as possible, as the vitamin C oxidizes when exposed to air, losing its health benefits.
Kiwis - cold in nature and can clear heat and promote fluid production, strengthen the spleen, and promote diuresis. It alleviates lack of appetite, indigestion, nausea, and hemorrhoids. Note that it is not suitable for ladies with asthenic spleen and stomach, prone to diarrhea and has cold type menstrual pain.

Guava - hot in nature, can help to relieve diarrhea, so it is suitable for those with chronic diarrhea, chronic pain due to cold wind and dampness, high blood pressure, and gastric hyperacidity. It is not suitable for those with constipation. Due to its hot nature, over-consumption can lead to excessive heat in the body.
Cherry - hot in nature, and can strengthen qi and stomach, dispel wind dampness. They are suitable for those with asthenic qi and blood, and those with indigestion. As they are warm in nature, avoid having too much and it is not suitable for those with diabetes.

Tips to clear summer heat for expecting mothers
Being pregnant is one of the best experiences in the world, but at the same time, it also causes pregnant moms to feel warm all the time! Especially during summer, pregnant moms’ body temperature tend to be higher than that of the ordinary people.
Yet, pregnant moms should avoid drinking raw and cold beverages as they could hurt the spleen and stomach and accumulate dampness in the body. They might even risk getting the deadly listeria infection from ice cubes in the drink.
Does that mean pregnant moms can only suffer in silence for the sake of their babies?
Here are some tips by Chinese physicians to help you relieve the summer-heat!
Lifestyle:
- can enjoy the air-conditioner but avoid direct cool air; watch out for indoor and outdoor temperature difference and make sure it is not overly extreme because a sudden change in temperature can cause you to fall ill
- swimming can help you cool down but make sure you keep your body dry and blow dry your hair afterwards
- choose clothes that are loose, airy, and sweat-absorbent; bring extra pairs of clothes along with you when necessary
- put on a large hat or carry an umbrella
- carry a moisturizing spray with you all the time
- carry a small fan but avoid blowing directly in one direction
Food:
- drink enough water to hydrate the body; add lemon slices and mints to freshen our mind
- eat fruits that can clear the summer-heat according to our body constitution, for instance, coconut, watermelon, wax apple, honeydew, and strawberry; remember to eat it at room temperature after you have taken them out of the refrigerator; if you experience diarrhea or dizziness, the fruits might be too cold for the pregnant moms
- consume food that are bitter in taste as they can clear heat and cool the blood, strengthen the spleen and promote urination, and relieve the summer-heat; these ingredients include bitter gourd, lettuce, coriander, and mint
- drink a cup of rice water daily as it can help to strengthen the spleen and stomach, eliminate dampness from the body, and improve your appetite during the warm summer season
- avoid eating ingredients that are warm in nature, for instance, onion, ginger, garlic, and chili
- pregnant moms with the damp heat body constitution should avoid eating foods that are over-nourishing

【飲酒迷思】小酌怡情,多喝傷身

#星期六隻眼閉
你適合喝酒嗎?
不少男士都喜歡「飲返兩杯」,酒是減壓、交際應酬不可少的飲料,從中醫角度來看,酒也是一種中藥,無論是葡萄酒、啤酒、燒酒、白酒或是黃酒,都是屬性偏溫,有散寒氣、通血脈的功效,與所有食材一樣,適量及配合體質飲用可和氣行血;相反飲酒過量容易於體內聚濕、生痰、化熱,影響肝及脾臟的正常運作。加上都市人多熬夜,飲食不節制,多喝酒會令身體更為濕熱,故要適可宜止。

Is alcohol good for you?
Many men enjoy an alcoholic drink every now and then. Besides treating it as a stress reliever, alcohol is also an important beverage in social events. From the perspective of Chinese Medicine, alcoholic drinks, be it red wine, beer, shoju, white wine, or millet wine, they are all warm in nature and can dispel cold in the body and improve blood circulation. Just like any ingredients, individuals should consume them in an appropriate amount based on their body constitutions to improve the circulation of qi and blood.
Excessive drinking can cause dampness to accumulate in the body, induce phlegm production, and clear heat, affecting the functions of the liver and spleen. Besides, city folks tend to sleep late and are not mindful of their diets. It is easier for damp heat to accumulate in their body when they consume alcoholic beverages. Hence, it is crucial not to over-indulge in these drinks.
You can have an appropriate amount of alcoholic beverages if you have these symptoms:
- Symptoms such as cold limbs
- Numbness on the limbs, joint pain and stagnation of qi and blood
- After being invaded by the dampness and cold pathogenic factors or getting wet in the rain
- Has external injuries (alcohol can invigorate the blood and clear stasis)
You should avoid drinking alcoholic beverages if you have these symptoms:
- Gastrointestinal problem
- Liver problem
- Gout
- Hypertension
- Heart diseases
- Diabetic
- Women during menstruation, pregnant women, and mothers who are breastfeeding
- Damp heat
- Phlegm-dampness
- Yin deficiency
If you unintentionally consumed alcoholic drinks excessively and have a hangover, try eating pomelo, pear, watermelon, banana, apple, or orange, as these fruits can help relieve the condition. You can also make yourself a cup of American ginseng and dried pear tea to reduce the discomfort of a hangover.
American Ginseng tea with pear
Effects: Helps to sober up. Relieves symptoms such as heavy headedness, nausea, lack of appetite after drinking.
Ingredients: 1 tablespoon American Ginseng, 3-4 pieces dried pear
Preparation: Place all ingredients into thermos. Rinse once with hot water, add in hot water and steep for 15 minutes until aroma develops. This tea can be re-brewed until flavour weakens.
✔CheckCheckCin Rice Water Recommendation: Dawn Rice Water
Ingredients: Red Rice, Coix Seed, White Rice
