【新年暴脹要消滯】消滯茶也要識飲!
心急人:雖然山楂可以消脂消滯,但是有時喝完山楂茶又會覺得胃痛,是太「削胃」了嗎?
CheckCheckCin:山楂性溫味酸,能開胃助消化及降血脂,對於食滯及消化不良都非常有效。尤其是在大魚大肉後更為適合,不但可消食更有消脂的作用。但要注意氣虛體質,又或是胃酸分泌較多的人,喝得太多反而會引起胃痛等症狀,所以最好還是在飯後、吃得太多肉後或是覺得有滯意時才飲用,謹記不要在飯前飲用,否則會削胃!想消滯,也可以選擇溫和的穀芽麥芽來泡茶!
炒麥芽決明子茶
材料:炒麥芽、炒穀芽、決明子各10克
做法:所有材料放入茶袋,放入保溫瓶,加入熱開水沖洗茶袋,把水倒掉,再加入熱開水,焗15分鐘即可。
功效:清熱消食通便,舒緩消化不良的胃脹不適及便秘症狀。
禁忌:麥芽能回乳,哺乳期婦女不宜飲用。
Although Chinese hawthorn can improve fat burn and relieve indigestion, sometimes after a cup of Chinese hawthorn tea, I’ll get a stomach ache. Is it damaging to my stomach?
Chinese Hawthorn is warm in nature with a sour taste, and helps to stimulate appetite, aid digestion and lower blood lipids. It is especially effective for those with indigestion from over eating or those with too much gastric acid secretion. If you have too much of it, it can lead to abdominal pain so it best to consume after meal, after eating a lot of meat or when you feel the indigestion. It is important not to have Chinese hawthorn tea before meal or it can be damaging to your stomach! You can also choose the milder malt and rice sprout to make a tea to relieve indigestion!
