Eat more sweet and cool fresh fruits and vegetables, and avoid spicy foods that can generate fire, so as to prevent stirring up fire and consuming yin, which will aggravate the condition.

It is appropriate to supplement without aiding the evil and to ensure that the supplement can be accepted. The drugs that can be chosen include Polygonatum sibiricum, Polygonatum odoratum, Ophiopogon japonicus, Schisandra chinensis, Adenophora stellariae, Radix Rehmanniae, Polygonum multiflorum, and Rehmannia glutinosa. If the drug is too greasy, add appropriate amount of stomach-soothing herbs such as Amomum villosum, Amomum villosum, and Citrus aurantium to regulate the effect.
