How to detoxify uneven skin tone

Whether it is air or diet, a lot of toxins will accumulate in our bodies. Therefore, detoxification is necessary in our daily life. Exercise is a good way to detoxify, but many people don’t have the time, so they choose to detoxify through diet. However, our detoxification methods are different for problems caused by different toxins. So, how do you detox if you have uneven skin tone?

Heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, five internal organs contain toxins, poor skin

[Case] ​​Ms. Chen, who is in her prime, has been busy with work and often has to work overtime until late at night, sometimes even staying up all night. Over time, many spots and pimples appeared on Ms. Chen's face. Her friends said that Ms. Chen had too many toxins accumulated and needed to detoxify.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, there are many different types of toxins in our body, such as blood stasis, phlegm, cold, food accumulation, qi stagnation, damp heat, etc. When these toxins accumulate in our five internal organs, they will accelerate the aging of our five internal organs, and then cause the skin, bones, muscles, nerves, etc. that are nourished by the five internal organs to become aged as well.

The manifestation of toxic accumulation in the five internal organs

Are toxins accumulating in your five internal organs? Do you have any of the following clues of toxins accumulated in the five internal organs left on the surface of the body?

(1) When toxins are hidden in the heart, tongue ulcers, forehead acne, and even insomnia, palpitations, chest tightness or tingling will occur;

(2) When toxins are stored in the liver, raised ridges or depressions may appear on the surface of the nails, breast pain, depression, acne on both sides of the face, migraines, and women may experience dysmenorrhea.

(3) When toxins are stored in the spleen, facial spots, bad breath, acne or ulcers around the lips, fat accumulation, and increased vaginal discharge may occur.

(4) When toxins are stored in the lungs, the skin becomes dull, constipation occurs, and the person becomes easily sad and sentimental.

(5) When toxins are stored in the kidneys, symptoms such as edema, acne on the jaw, and fatigue may occur. Women may also experience less menstrual flow, shorter periods, and darker menstrual periods.

Once we find where the toxins are hiding in the human body, we can pull them out as quickly as possible and eliminate them from our body.

Detoxification is so simple

Toxins are produced in the human body every day. A healthy lifestyle can effectively eliminate these toxins. However, people who have an irregular diet, lack of sleep, and do not like to exercise often have toxins remaining in their bodies. Experts remind us that detoxification is actually very simple. Diet, exercise and sleep can all help detoxify. If you pay attention to the details in your life, you can clean your five internal organs and eliminate all toxins.

● Face washing detoxification method

When you wake up in the morning, wash your face with warm water first, then rinse with cold water for 30 seconds, then wash with warm water, and then rinse with cold water. Alternating between hot and cold water can promote blood circulation. Doing this can promote the contraction of facial blood vessels and skin, and is a little trick to eliminate toxins from facial skin.

●Dietary detoxification

Some people think that dieting is detoxification and that not eating will not produce toxins. In fact, this dieting approach is wrong. Dieting is not only not conducive to the excretion of toxins, but also damages our internal organs, especially the spleen and stomach, and causes other diseases. Detoxification does not require dieting, but learning to scientifically adjust the diet structure and arrange three meals a day.

(1) 7-9 am is the time for stomach detoxification.

Therefore, you must eat a rich breakfast, and it is best to eat some stomach-nourishing foods, such as peanuts, walnuts, apples, carrots, etc.

(2) 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. is the time for heart detoxification.

Therefore, you can eat some heart-nourishing foods for lunch, such as longan. In addition, fungi, especially black fungus, have the function of cleansing the blood and detoxifying, so you can eat more of them in moderation.

(3) You can eat some bean soup (red bean, mung bean, black bean, or soybean) or bean products at night.

These foods can help excrete various toxins from the body, promote metabolism, break down fat and inhibit fat accumulation, so you can eat more of them; whole grains like oats, brown rice, sweet potatoes, corn, etc., as well as fresh vegetables and fruits, are rich in vitamins and fiber, and are very beneficial detoxifying foods, so you can eat more of them.

● Cleanse the stomach and detoxify

Most of the toxins in the human body exist in the intestines and are excreted from the body with feces. If defecation is not done for a long time, the toxins may be reabsorbed by the body. If you can keep your bowel movements smooth, you can ensure that most toxins are excreted in a timely manner.

In order to clear out the stool, many people often try some detoxification and laxative products on their own. Since some common detoxification products on the market contain laxative ingredients, although they work quickly, if they are used excessively for a long time, they can easily aggravate constipation and may eventually cause stubborn constipation, which is very irritating to the gastrointestinal tract.

Therefore, the safest and most reliable way is to rely on the body's own balance function and good daily living habits and eating habits. If the bowel movements and urination are smooth, the toxins in the body will naturally be discharged.

●Exercise detoxification

Modern urbanites, especially white-collar workers who often sit in offices, usually sit from work to get off work and hardly move from their desks. They also drive to and from get off work. Over time, toxins accumulate due to poor circulation of meridians in the body. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone do some appropriate exercise every week, such as walking, jogging, yoga, swimming, etc.

Through appropriate amount of exercise, gastrointestinal motility can be promoted, blood circulation can be accelerated, and toxins can be excreted smoothly from the body.

●Sufficient sleep detoxification method

Many people like to stay up late, which is a very unhealthy lifestyle habit. Because from 11pm to 5am the next morning is the time for the gallbladder, liver and lungs to detoxify, and these detoxifying organs need to work in a quiet sleep state. Being a "night owl" for a long time will not only affect your mental state the next day, but also cause dysfunction of the endocrine system, and various toxins cannot be excreted, resulting in dull complexion, bad breath, constipation, etc.

Therefore, sleep quality is very important. Ensure adequate sleep to allow the liver, gallbladder, and lungs to get adequate rest and excrete toxins.

●Deep breathing detoxification method

Everyone breathes in daily life, but most of the time people's breathing is an unconscious reflex action. The volume of gas entering the lungs each time is very limited. In fact, the faster the breathing rate, the smaller the breathing volume. The inhaled oxygen has no time to take effect before it is sent out again. Coupled with short breathing, the waste carbon dioxide remains in the lungs.

Therefore, instead of taking a hundred short breaths, it is better to remind yourself to take deep breaths or abdominal breathing frequently to help speed up the metabolism of waste in the body and purify the blood.
