【濕氣致肥】有沒有女生喜歡捏這個小肚肚？
減啤酒肚要健脾袪濕
完成一天繁重工作後，左手一杯冰凍啤酒，右手一口惹味串燒實在是治癒不過！久而久之，男士容易落下一大圈腰間贅肉，又名「啤酒肚」！中醫認為「脾虛濕阻」導致肥胖症狀，雖然啤酒屬性偏熱，能散寒氣、通血脈，「少飲則和氣行血」，但飲酒過量還是容易於體內聚濕、生痰、化熱，影響肝及脾臟的正常運作。下酒菜多是肥甘厚味的串燒、炸物或生冷小菜，令膏脂、水濕積聚腰間。此外，情緒鬱悶、工作壓力大等情志失調狀況導致肝氣鬱結，也會加重脾胃負擔，水濕痰濁積聚之下亦會形成啤酒肚。
想甩掉啤酒肚，宜少吃肥甘厚味、少生冷飲食；多進食健脾祛濕食材如淮山、薯仔、蓮子、小米、芡實等；一星期抽時間做適量帶氧運動及留意精神健康，有適當的宣洩；也可以配合針灸治療，令身體回復平和狀態。

Strengthen the spleen and dispel dampness to lose your beer belly
After a day of work, it is relaxing to have a cold beer with skewered food. Overtime many guys develop beer bellies as a result. Chinese medicine believes that spleen deficiency and dampness leads to obesity symptoms. Although the beer is hot in nature and can dispel cold and promote blood circulation, dampness can stagnate if you drink it excessively leading to phlegm and heat in the body. It affects the normal function of the liver and spleen. Good that complements beer are usually oily and fatty, in the form of skewers, fried food or cold and raw appetizers which leads to fat and dampness collecting in the waist area. In addition, bad mood, work stress and other emotional disorders can cause liver qi stagnation, and that also increases the burden of spleen and stomach. Dampness and phlegm accumulation will also form beer belly.
To get rid of the beer belly, you should eat less oily, fatty and cold/raw food. Eat more ingredients that can strengthen spleen and dispel dampness ingredients such as Chinese yam, potato, lotus seeds, millet, medlar, etc.. Take time to do moderate exercise and pay attention to your emotional health. You can also adapt acupuncture treatment to restore the body to a fair condition.
