The forehead is a territory under the jurisdiction of the heart, and when the heart fire becomes fire poison, this territory will also boil, so many acne appear one after another.
The heart is constantly working, and when the fire poison stays in the heart and cannot be eliminated, sleep will not be peaceful.
Blood stasis in the heart is also a toxin, like a traffic jam on the highway, with chest tightness in the lighter and tingling in the heavier ones.
Hardship and detoxification
The lotus seed core is the first to be recommended, it has a bitter taste, can diffuse the heart fire, although it has a cold nature, but it will not damage the body's yang energy, so it has always been considered the best food to dissolve the heat poison of the heart.

The mammary gland belongs to the fortress on the route of the liver meridian, once there is "poison" in the liver meridian, the mammary hyperplasia will be produced, especially when the menstrual blood is about to be discharged, it will become swollen and painful due to the abundance of qi and blood.
The liver is an organ in the body that regulates emotions, and once the toxins in the liver cannot be discharged in time and block the flow of qi, obvious bad emotions will be produced.
The sides of the face and the lower abdomen are the "one acre and three points of land" of the liver meridian and its partner gallbladder meridian, once the liver detoxification is not smooth, their backyard will catch fire first.

Women with spots usually have a weaker digestive system.
The spleen is responsible for the removal of dampness in the body, and if there is too much dampness, beyond the capacity of the spleen, there will be excessive dampness in the body, and the increase in leucorrhea is one of the manifestations.
Fat has another name in traditional Chinese medicine: phlegm and dampness, which is produced by the poor digestive function of the spleen and the inability to excrete garbage toxins from the body in time. Effective weight loss must be done around the theme of restoring the normal metabolism of phlegm and dampness in the spleen and stomach, otherwise it will rebound.
The area around the lips belongs to the spleen, and when the toxins in the spleen cannot be excreted from the body, the accumulated toxins have to find opportunities to explode from these places.

When there are more toxins in the lungs, the toxins will be deposited on the skin with the action of the lungs, making the complexion look dull.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the lungs and large intestine are a system, and when there are toxins in the upper lungs, there will also be abnormal accumulation in the lower intestines, resulting in constipation.
Toxins in the lungs will interfere with the flow of qi and blood in the lungs, making the lungs unable to normally relieve the stuffiness in the chest, and they will be suppressed and sentimental.
