茯苓 Poria cocos : 祛濕

白朮 Atractylodes macrocephala : 健脾 🌿😊 Thanks🙏

《白朮茯苓祛濕茶食譜》Atractylodes macrocephala & Poria cocos - Chinese herbology Tea (soup) Recipe：準備白朮5克、茯苓5克、陳皮2克。先將所有食材洗乾淨，在鍋子裡加入適量的水煮沸，轉小火，再加入所有的食材煮2分鐘，即可飲用。 good having it in summer. xoxo

《內經》說。諸濕腫滿，皆屬於脾。濕氣是脾虛運化失常而產生的產物，想要一勞永逸地擺脫濕氣的體質，健脾是非常重要的事情。中藥的藥對：白朮和茯苓是祛濕健脾的好搭檔。兩者的功���相比，白朮重在健脾，而茯苓則重在祛濕。

茯苓能除脾胃的濕，也能除頭面上的濕。它有一個很神奇的作用，便是可以引導濕氣往下走，通過尿液排出體外，再趁機好好地修復脾胃。以茯苓加入飲食，或者泡茶喝，一段時間後，可以明顯感覺臉部的氣色逐漸變好，痘痘也會慢慢減少，不再那麼容易疲累，甚至因為茯苓的利水祛濕作用，而會發現體重的降低！濕氣除了是健康殺手，還是顏值殺手！那麽，這個夏天記得喝茯苓茶湯喔！

常聽中醫說「濕氣」，究竟濕氣是什麼？對人體有什麼影響？許多民眾大概都會列舉出一些濕氣的症狀，比如水腫、大便黏馬桶、舌頭有齒痕、容易疲倦、代謝變差、易胖等。被濕氣纏上，便是長時間在健康上的鬥爭。但是，濕氣除了是健康殺手以外，還是顏值殺手！

濕氣就好比是不流動的水，一段時間後，這水便會慢慢變黑，如果這水停留的位置就在臉上，那就是眼袋或者是黑眼圈，甚至整張臉也會變得不再容光煥發，而黯淡無光。如果這「濕」再加上「熱」，糾結在臉上，便是痘痘粉刺狂冒，還常常面冒油光，油脂分泌旺盛。

因此，想要膚如凝脂，擁有一張潔白亮麗的臉，把體內的濕氣拔除，是首要的任務！祛濕可以選擇的管道有兩個，一是選擇祛濕利水的食材，二是選擇健脾補土的食材。

Plant of the Day

Tuesday 18 July 2023

On a roadside verge by a cottage was this fine plant of Centaurea macrocephala (giant knapweed, Aremanian basket flower). This herbaceous perennial has stiff stems carrying large, shining buds of brown papery scales from which burst the yellow thread-like flower petals.

In our latest installment of things that MBARI scientists get excited about we give you—a bioluminescent arrow worm.

Arrow worms, also known as chaetognaths, are relatively small marine worms, with some species only reaching two millimeters (or nearly a quarter of a centimeter) to 120 millimeters (about four inches).

Until 1994, we had no idea that these worms were able to produce their own light (aka bioluminescence). Enter Caecosagitta macrocephala, the first known species of bioluminescent arrow worm. During a research expedition, scientists observed these arrow worms producing bioluminescent clouds from the viewing window of their robotic submersible. This deep-sea worm, usually found at depths over 700 meters (2,300 feet), is only one of the two known species of bioluminescent chaetognath.

Point of order, Hemiauchenia macrocephala is not a “bighead llama”, it’s a bighead guanaco or vicuña. Llamas (and alpacas) are the domestic versions, and they only came into existence a few thousand years ago.
