【口甘】嘴巴甜甜可能是濕熱？
口甜舌滑非好事？
相信大家不時都會口甜舌滑氹媽媽高興一下，間中說話口甜舌滑一下固然沒有問題，但是口中真的覺得有甜味，連飲水也覺得帶甜或酸甜的話，多因為脾胃功能失常，尤其是有濕熱，中醫稱為「口甘」。這類人平日吃過多甘肥厚味的食物，胃口好，吃得也多，同時亦會有口渴不想飲水，而且有胃脹的的症狀。所以平日口花花口甜舌滑還可，但真的有「口甜」的情況，就要多注意飲食，多吃清淡食物和蔬菜。
口甜舌滑食療：
材料：綠豆60克、生薏米20克、洋薏米10克、白果8枚
做法：白果剝殼備用。鍋中加入約1000毫升水，放入全部材料，武火煮至水滾，調文火煮約45分鐘至軟身，最後以冰糖調味即可。
Being sweet isn’t always good?
A lot of people will try to use sweet words to make our moms happy, being sweet with words is not a problem but if you taste sweetness in your mouth even with water, then your spleen may not be functioning properly. This is especially true for those with damp-heat, and Chinese medicine calls it ‘sweet taste’. People with this usually consume fatty and strong flavored things. They have a good appetite and will eat quite a bit. As the same time they may feel thirsty but do not want to drink water and may also experience abdominal bloating. So if you are sweet with words, then great; but if you have a sweet taste, then pay attention to your diet, and keep to bland and light food and vegetables.
Tea remedy for sweet taste:
Ingredients: 60g mung beans, 20g raw coix seeds, 10g pearl barley, 8 gingko nuts
Preparation: remove shell from gingko nuts. Combine ingredients with 1000ml of water in a pot, and place over high heat until the water boils. Switch to low heat and simmer for additional 45 minutes. Add rock sugar to taste.
