Body becomes sticky after sweating

Sweating is a normal condition. We can usually sweat in many ways, such as exercise, etc. Sweating will directly cause many symptoms, including the stickiness of the body. The stickiness of the body should be taken seriously because it may be caused by a certain disease. So why does the body become hot after sweating?

Sweating is our body's natural way of "cooling itself": in order to keep the body at a normal 37°C, we need to release excess heat in the body through sweating. In summer, the temperature rises, the human body's yang energy floats on the surface of the body, the sweat pores of the skin open, and metabolic waste is excreted from the body through sweating. Health experts remind us: In summer, we should follow the rhythm of nature and sweat appropriately, and should not stay in the air-conditioned environment for too long.

We can look at it from head to toe. If you always feel heavy and tired in the summer, as if you wrapped a big wet towel on your head after taking a shower, and feel groggy and "as if your head is wrapped", this is a manifestation of dampness; for example, swollen eyelids, edema of the face, and a thick and greasy tongue; for example, you are always tired, your body is heavy, you always want to sleep, you don't want to eat, you still have diarrhea after eating, and your stool is loose and soft, or it is unformed and not comfortable, the so-called constipation, these are all manifestations of spleen deficiency; and swelling of the lower limbs is also a manifestation of dampness.

For example, you may often have poor appetite, no desire to eat, loose stools, or indigestible food, which are symptoms of spleen deficiency. We say that the spleen is responsible for transportation and transformation, and distributes it throughout the body. This is equivalent to a grain of rice added with water. No matter how long it is left here or how much water is used, it will never become rice. Only by adding heat and cooking it into porridge or rice can it be cooked. When the spleen and stomach function poorly and the spleen yang is insufficient, it is like the rice is not cooked enough and the raw rice will never be cooked. When the spleen yang is deficient, the stool is always unformed, and undigested food is present, even vegetable leaves. Whatever you eat will come out as well. This indicates spleen deficiency, and you should pay special attention to it. People tend to have a poorer appetite in summer, unlike in winter when they always want to eat. In summer, the outside is hot and the digestive function is weak. At this time, you should be extra careful about spleen deficiency and pay attention to it as early as possible.

For example, obese people often like to eat greasy food, sweets, and meat for a long time, which can easily produce phlegm, which cannot be metabolized and accumulates in the body. According to traditional Chinese medicine, damp-heat is caused by accumulation of phlegm. People with this condition can actually cough up visible phlegm, and sometimes invisible phlegm. This is often an early sign of diabetes. Obesity is the root of all evil and the source of many diseases. If you curb obesity in the early stages, it will be beneficial for future diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. Therefore, obese people should pay special attention to strengthening the spleen and eliminating dampness, eat less and exercise more, and ensure sufficient energy.
