What is damp-heat toxicity?

Dampness is one of the six pathogenic factors: wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness and fire. There is a saying in Chinese medicine that "a thousand colds are easy to get rid of, but one dampness is difficult to get rid of." If people get caught in the rain or wade through water or stay in a humid environment in summer and autumn, moisture will invade the body through the respiratory tract, skin pores, etc., "set up camp" and "live there for a long time" in various organs and tissues.

If a person is troubled by dampness for a long time, the dampness will accumulate and turn into heat, which is what Chinese medicine calls "heat". When the body is heated, there will be many symptoms similar to getting angry, such as: loose stools, red and swollen eyes, erosions at the corners of the mouth, yellow urine, toothache, sore throat, dizziness, greasy hair, bitter mouth, greasy hair and skin...

Toxins are excess waste in the human body. Due to improper diet, damp living environment, etc., dampness and heat accumulate in the body, and excessive heat turns to poison.
