[Health Channel/Comprehensive Report] When I wake up in the morning and look in the mirror, what should I do if I see my face in the mirror is swollen and there are "bubble eyes"?

Nutritionist Huang Qionghui suggested that drinks with high potassium content can be supplemented, because the increase in potassium ions can help remove sodium ions and quickly eliminate edema.

However, friends with poor kidney function or who need to limit potassium are not recommended to use this method, so as not to increase the burden on the body.

In addition, it is also necessary to develop light eating habits and regular exercise to make it easier to discharge excess water.

Huang Qionghui pointed out in a Facebook fan page "Huang Qionghui Nutritionist" that there are many reasons for edema. In addition to disease factors, if you are used to eating heavy-tasting foods, such as salted crispy chicken, instant noodles, canned food, pickles, processed foods, dipped Sauce, hot pot, etc. can easily cause excessive intake of "sodium", which will increase the electrolyte concentration in the blood. In order to maintain a constant osmotic pressure, the body will retain water in the body, causing edema.

The following are 5 drinks to quickly eliminate edema:

1. Red bean water:

foods with high potassium content can help reduce edema, and red bean water is a good choice. If you cook red bean water yourself, it is recommended not to add extra sugar, and you should also avoid boiling the red bean skin to avoid drinking too much starch and heat.

In addition, since red beans are whole grains, if the remaining red beans are reluctant to throw away, they can be eaten instead of staple food.

2. Black bean water:

Black bean water is made by frying black beans and soaking in heated water. It is rich in mineral potassium, which can excrete sodium from the body to help the body metabolize and eliminate edema.

3. Black coffee:

The "caffeine" in coffee can help water metabolism and accelerate intestinal peristalsis.

The recommended daily intake of caffeine is less than 300 mg. Excessive consumption can easily lead to anxiety, insomnia and other conditions. People with cardiovascular disease, abnormal gastrointestinal function, and insomnia are advised to reduce coffee consumption. Pregnant women and children also need to pay special attention.

4. Corn silk tea:

Corn silk can not only be used as an ingredient in cooking, but simply boiled into tea, which has the effect of diuretic and anti-edema.

5. Green tea:

Green tea is quite diuretic, which can help the body excrete excess sodium, reduce edema, and help burn fat and reduce body fat.

Among them, the "catechin" in green tea has more powerful antioxidant power.
