In different seasons, the accumulation sites of toxins are different, the accumulated toxins are different, and the detoxification formulas are also different. In spring, we should pay attention to liver and gallbladder detoxification; in summer, we should expel heart fire, heat and blood toxins; in autumn, we should expel lung, sputum, intestine and skin toxins; in winter, we should expel kidney, cold and fat toxins. Detoxify your body!
The ancients believed that people’s internal organs echoed the seasons, and combined with detoxification in the four seasons, they could achieve twice the result with half the effort.
I. detoxification in autumn: detoxification of lung, sputum, intestine and skin
[pulmonary toxicity]
Symptoms: the autumn corresponds to the lungs. It is most timely to expel lung poison, also known as gas poison, which is manifested as poor breathing, chest tightness and expectoration.
Conditioning formula: 1. Take more deep breaths to expel the turbid gas in the lungs.
2. It’s just daybreak in the morning, and it’s the time for the lung meridian to “be on duty”. It’s very beneficial to stand on the balcony and take a deep breath while stretching your limbs.
3. Some people like to go out of their homes in the morning and shout mountains and rivers in places with fresh air. It’s also a good way to cleanse their lungs.
4. Massaging Hegu Point (located at the mouth of the tiger on the back of the hand, at the depression of the first metacarpal bone and the second metacarpal bone) and Taiyuan point (on the horizontal line of the wrist, at the root of the thumb) is also good for expelling lung poison.
[phlegm poison]
Conditioning formula: people with sputum and thick sputum should eat more radish, lily, almond, tremella, pear (snow pear is the best), which helps moisten dryness and expel sputum.

6. Serious cases can take Jingfang Baidu powder or Fangfeng Tongsheng powder.
II. Detoxification in winter: detoxification of kidney, cold and fat
[nephrotoxicity]
Symptoms: corresponding to kidney in winter, it is necessary to expel kidney poison. The kidney is the organ that produces urine, and excreting kidney poison is excreting urine poison. Because of the cold weather, people are generally lazy to move and drink less water, which is easy to accumulate uremia, manifested as less urination and dark color.
Conditioning formula: 5-7 p.m. is the “on duty” period of the kidney meridian. During this period, you must drink water to flush the “physiological toilet” of the bladder and kidney, which can prevent urinary system stones.

[lipotoxicity]
Detoxification formula: in autumn and winter, if the nutrition exceeds the standard and there is little exercise, it is inevitable that the blood fat will increase and the weight will increase. At this time, it is necessary to pay attention to detoxification. Hawthorn, black fungus, cucumber, tomato, cabbage, radish and various coarse grains are good food for eliminating fat and poison.
III. detoxification in spring: detoxification of liver and gallbladder
[hepatobiliary toxicity]
Symptoms: in spring, it corresponds to the liver and gall, so we should seize the time to expel the poison of the liver and gall. Hepatobiliary toxicity will affect the function of catharsis, which is manifested by long spots on the face, dark nails, hyperplasia of mammary glands, etc,

You should eat more bitter food, such as bitter cabbage and bitter melon; You can also drink 5g of bamboo leaves or 2-3g of lotus seeds in water to diuresis through the small intestine and discharge fire. However, it should be noted that bamboo leaves and lotus seed hearts are cold and should not be drunk too much to avoid hurting the spleen and stomach;
2. Throughout the day, the “duty time” of the Heart Sutra is in the afternoon, so taking a nap at noon every day helps to lower your anger.
3. At ordinary times, you can massage Shaofu point (where the little finger tip points when you clench your fist) and Shenmen point (that is, the little finger side of the wrinkles on the inner side of the wrist), which also has an effect.
[thermal toxicity]
Symptoms: in summer, the temperature is high, the sun is poisonous, and people under the scorching heat are easy to accumulate heat poison, which is manifested as upset, sweating, and urinating less.
Conditioning formula: I suggest eating watermelon and mung bean soup.
[blood poison]
Symptoms: in summer, people like to eat out, and often have dinner at the street side and big stalls. If you eat too miscellaneous and disorderly at ordinary times, or take in too many food additives, you will accumulate blood poison in your body, resulting in dizziness, nausea and other symptoms.

Conditioning formula: it is recommended to eat more grapes, watermelons, mung beans, green tea and so on to detoxify. You can also massage Shaofu acupoints at ordinary times.
v. long summer (dog days) detoxification: detoxification of dampness, sweat and insects
[dampness poison]
Symptoms: long summer is the midsummer season. Summer heat, rain and fog are intertwined. The humid air and continuous high temperature make people “sauna” almost every day. The most important thing in this season is to eliminate moisture and poison. People with severe dampness and toxicity feel sick, greasy moss, heavy breath, poor appetite and unpleasant stool.
Conditioning formula: you should drink more loofah soup, winter melon soup, job’s tears porridge and mung bean soup. If nausea is serious, you can eat mint and ginger in cold sauce. If you can’t, you should use Huoxiang Zhengqi water.
[accumulation of toxin in the spleen and stomach]
Symptoms: the viscera corresponding to long summer are the spleen and stomach, and it is also important to expel toxins from the spleen and stomach. In midsummer, the humidity is heavy. If you eat too much and too well, it is easy to form damp heat in your body, which is manifested as serious bad breath, bad stool and unpleasant feeling.
Conditioning formula: 1. At this time, you should eat diuretic food, mung bean soup and green vegetables are the best.
2. The “duty time” of the spleen and stomach is in the morning, generally from 7 to 9 o’clock. After breakfast, you can drink hawthorn, orange peel and job’s tears in water, which is helpful for digestion and dehumidification.
3. It can massage Zusanli (three inches below the outer knee) and Fenglong (eight inches above the tip of the outer ankle).
[sweat poison]
Perspiration is a great thing: in hot weather, people will sweat profusely after a little activity. At this time, perspiration is good for the body. If they can’t sweat, it will accumulate in the body and become a poison. White collar workers who stay in air-conditioned rooms for a long time should pay attention to it.
Formula for expelling sweat poison: it includes proper exercise, warm bath, soaking in warm bath, and eating spicy food to help the body sweat.
[insect poison]
Long summer is still the season for eliminating pests. Children do not pay attention to hygiene when eating, and it is inevitable that there are pinworms and roundworms in their stomachs. Parents are advised to go to pediatrics to ask a doctor to prescribe medicine to drive away the worms.
Four Seasons detoxification formula:
Although detoxification throughout the year has its own characteristics, it also has something in common, that is, Ganoderma lucidum, mushrooms, kelp, milk, pig blood, green tea, ginger, mung beans and so on. Eating them in spring, summer, autumn and winter can detoxify them; Don’t overeat on the rest day, but choose a meal every weekend to eat only half full, and take a holiday for the stomach. This is also a common detoxification method throughout the four seasons.
