The formation of phlegm-dampness constitution is mainly related to the function of the spleen. The water in the human body is like a river. The upper reaches of the river are managed by the lungs, the middle reaches by the spleen, and the lower reaches by the kidneys. The most crucial is that "the spleen governs transportation and transformation." Once the spleen is relatively insufficient for a long time, the fluids cannot be transported and transformed, and they accumulate in the body over time, resulting in what is called phlegm-dampness. The main symptoms include a heavy head, body swelling, fatigue, and chest tightness.

🚫 Avoid irregular spleen care
Nourishing the spleen is not something for a specific season, but something that should be done every day like eating and drinking water.
🚫 Avoid cold
To nourish the spleen, you should not drink too many beverages, especially cold drinks. Whether it's cold beverages or melons and fruits, they should not be eaten excessively, as too much cold can harm the spleen.
