The weather is dry and your mouth is dry, and you still feel thirsty after drinking water? Chinese doctors suggest "Category 1 Fruit" to relieve dryness

 8:58am, 4 July 2025

As the weather begins to turn, the moisture in the air decreases, and the human body is prone to dry mouth and tongue and dry skin due to lack of water. This is what is called "autumn dryness". The doctor said that if the skin is dry, you can drink lily, wolfberry, chrysanthemum tea to relieve the water, or use foods rich in gelatin or gelatin to retain water; if the mouth and tongue are dry, you should drink more water, or eat some slightly sour fruits to reduce the inappropriate feeling caused by autumn dryness.

Zhang Fengdong, a Chinese doctor at Changhua Hospital of the Ministry of Fufu, said, "Dryness and damage to body fluids. Once the body is consumed, dryness will appear." The body is dehydrated and dry, and the Chinese medicine calls it "Autumn dryness". At this time, the mouth and tongue, dry skin, secret stools, dry cough, and even nosebleeds will appear. The "body fluid" mentioned by Chinese medicine refers to the moisture in the body. Because the patient was very sick, he had to stop the patient from being dreaming and awake, which caused the patient to have a wound and he went to the hospital.

Zhang Yingdong pointed out that this type of patients is more likely to develop in the dry autumn season. If the main symptoms appear on the skin, they can use the method of clearing heat and dryness, and lily wolfberry chrysanthemum tea can be slightly relieved. If the symptoms are severe, it is recommended to take foods rich in gelatin or gelatin, such as fungus, sausage, chicken feet, fish and pig skin, etc. This type of food can retain water, but everyone's physical condition is different, so it is best to consult a doctor or nutritionist.

Thirsty and dry tongue eat slightly acidic fruits

Zhang Fengdong explained that if you feel dry mouth and tongue, just drink water to quench your thirst, you only need to drink more water; if drinking water cannot improve it, it is recommended to use foods that can increase saliva and bring slightly acidic fruits, such as lemons, kumquats, gold, citrus, sour plums and other slightly acidic foods, but remember to ease the slight acidic and dry, don’t eat too much.

What should I eat less of "Autumn Dry"? Zhang Fengdong further pointed out that due to dry reasons, foods that are dry or irritating in the food should be eaten carefully, such as dry foods such as dry bread, too dry bread, and convenient crisp noodles. In addition, fried foods, peppers, chili and other foods that will aggravate the irritation should not be eaten as much as possible.

It is best to wear a thin coat with your body

As climate changes such as global warming, the climate changes are now more diverse than before. Zhang Xudong said that the situation of "dry autumn" still exists, but the daytime in late autumn is still hot, and the temperature difference in the morning and evening is even greater. If you are not treated carefully, the general cold may be caused by external cold.

He also called out that ordinary people tend to squish when the temperature difference is big day and night. It is best to wear a thin coat to keep the cold and the temperature is constant during sleep. The fan does not blow directly to the body, so that the body will not squish.
