預防痔瘡要排便通暢
一直都有「十男九痔」的說法,就是說十位男士當中就有九位有痔瘡的問題,其實男女一樣有生痔瘡的可能。痔瘡即是圍繞肛門的靜脈血管血液不流暢致腫脹,甚至成血管瘤,常見的伴隨症狀為便鮮血及排便時疼痛,嚴重的甚至會脫肛。中醫認為,身體燥熱、濕熱、血瘀及氣虛的人較易有痔瘡,長期站著、習慣性便秘、大便偏硬、排便困難要用很多力等問題。要預防及舒緩痔瘡,要緊密留意大便狀況。近期最流行的通便食物一定是麒麟果,但又有人說吃完就腹瀉,究竟這種「排便聖物」是否適合你,又與一般的火龍果有何分別?
麒麟果-屬火龍果的一種,功效與紅肉或白肉火龍果無異。性涼,味甘、淡,有清熱生津、潤腸通便的功效。由於麒麟果有比火龍果更豐富的粗纖維和果腸,因此對便秘特別有舒緩作用,腸胃虛弱及易有便溏的人多吃會出現腹瀉。要注意麒麟果糖分相對較高,糖尿患者不宜多吃。
