Consume honeysuckle to relieve ’housewife's hand’
The weather during spring and summer is humid, and a humid environment can easily cause skin allergy, eczema, and ‘housewife’s hand’. Stay-home mothers, who have endless house chores to deal with, are always in contact with water. This causes the dampness pathogen to invade through our skin, causing our skin to itch, swell, and age. These symptoms are similar to eczema and atopic dermatitis.
Chinese Medicine theories view ‘housewife’s hand’ as the outcome of the dampness pathogen’s invasion. Other accompanying symptoms include dry mouth, aversion to heat, and yellowish urine. It would be best to clear the heat and dampness from our body and get rid of toxins to prevent itching from getting worse.
Honeysuckle, which is often used in herbal tea, is cool in nature. It can clear the summer heat, dispel wind and heat from the body, and is anti-inflammatory. Other than being a topical medicine, it is also an edible ingredient. One can consume honeysuckle to relieve itchiness caused by ‘housewife’s hand’. When you are planning to eat hotpot or barbecue, consider making a drink with honeysuckle and chrysanthemum. These ingredients can help clear heat and eliminate toxins from the body.
Honeysuckle – cool in nature; can clear summer heat, dispel cold and heat, and is anti-inflammatory. It is suitable to relieve summer-related conditions such as dizziness, dry mouth, excessive sweating, irritability, and heatstroke. It is also suitable to treat infection caused by inflammation and ulcer.
Since it is cool in nature, individuals with a cold and weak stomach and spleen as well as those who experience diarrhea should avoid. People with G6PD deficiency (Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase deficiency) should avoid consuming this ingredient as well.
