大小二便自己都要留意吓?✨
如果發現這情況應先諗諗自己食過甚麼,因為進食大量含有胡蘿蔔素的食物,如紅蘿蔔、南瓜、木瓜、大黃等,和某些藥物都會令小便變深黃,甚至呈橙紅色。如果無進食過,就要留意自己是否飲得水少。而中醫理論中,有肝熱、胃氣盛、肺氣虛、腎氣不足等,都有可能導致小便色偏黃,而有肝膽病和肝炎的亦是。假如有長期小便偏深黃的問題,就應與醫生查詢。千萬不要以為自己是熱氣就狂飲涼茶,有可能會令你愈飲愈虛!
Yellow Pee means heaty?
When you have this condition, you should first try to remember what you have eaten recently. Foods with more carotene, such as carrot, pumpkin, papaya and rhubarb, or some kinds of medication can cause urine to become dark yellow or even orange. If you haven’t eaten any suspicious foods, then you also have to examine if you are drinking too little. From Chinese medicine perspective, those with hepatopyrexia, excessive stomach ‘qi’, lung ‘qi’ deficiency, or kidney ‘qi’ deficiency can have yellow pee. People with liver/gallbladder disease or hepatitis can also experience the same. If yellow urination persists over time, it will be important to seek medical advice. Don’t assume you are too hot internally and drink too much cooling herbal tea as it may cause your body to be even more asthenic.
