Get rid of the extra fat around your waist and abdomen! Wu Mingzhu: Drinking summer heat-clearing slimming tea can remove dampness and reduce fat

As we are about to enter the hot summer, waist and abdominal obesity is a nightmare that many women cannot get rid of. Chinese medicine practitioners point out that most patients with waist and abdominal obesity have a cold constitution, heavy moisture in the body, and poor blood circulation, which makes it difficult to get rid of the lower abdomen. It is recommended to drink Chinese herbal tea that helps to remove moisture, burn fat, and moisturize the intestines to assist in conditioning and improvement.

Chinese medicine practitioner Wu Mingzhu pointed out that the causes of obesity are related to the body's deficiency of vital energy, spleen and stomach disorders, yang deficiency, and liver and kidney dysfunction. Chinese medicine mostly treats obesity by invigorating qi and strengthening the spleen, resolving phlegm and dampness, and digesting food and relieving stagnation. To improve waist and abdominal obesity, symptomatic treatment is required according to physical condition.

Cold constitution is prone to abdominal obesity

If a woman has a cold constitution, she is likely to have cold hands and feet, excessive vaginal secretions, or less menstrual blood and darker menstrual blood. If she wants to lose weight in her lower abdomen, she should avoid cold drinks and sweets, stay up late, and take a hot bath every day to help expel moisture from the body.

In addition to hormonal factors, stress can also lead to blockage of the body's qi and cause "liver qi stagnation". Once the liver's qi-discharging function is abnormal, it will affect the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, if you often rely on eating to relieve stress, especially when you are fond of spicy, fried, grilled and other heavy-tasting foods, your stomach fire will become strong, making it more likely that you will have a "belly widow".
