孕媽媽消暑秘笈
懷孕是一件幸福的事,亦是一件很炎熱的事!尤其懷孕後期正值炎夏的孕媽媽們,因為孕婦體溫比正常人要高;但孕婦不宜多喝生冷飲品,否則有損脾胃又聚濕,凍飲的冰塊有可能含有致命的李斯特菌,難道為了寶寶健康就只有忍?讓中醫師教你一些孕婦消暑小貼士!
生活篇:
- 可涼冷氣但不宜直吹,並且要注意室內外溫差,室內冷氣溫度不宜調得太低,否則一熱一冷容易生病
- 游泳降溫,泳後要立即弄乾身體及頭髮
- 選擇鬆身、透氣及吸汗力強的衣物,必要時多帶衣物更換
- 戴有大帽沿的太陽帽或傘子
- 帶備保濕噴霧
- 帶備小風扇,但要注意避免固定吹向一個部位
飲食篇:
- 補充適量水份,加片檸檬或薄荷葉可以令人更醒神
- 消暑的水果例如椰青、西瓜、蓮霧、蜜瓜、士多啤梨等可按身體狀況適量食用,記得從雪櫃取出後放置室溫一會才享用;如出現腹瀉或眩暈情況,就代表食材對孕媽媽來說太寒涼了,不宜食用
- 適量食用苦味食物,因其多有清心涼血、健脾利尿以及緩解暑熱的功效,例如苦瓜、生菜、萵筍、芫茜、薄荷葉等
- 每天飲一杯米水,有助強健脾胃,驅走濕氣,紓緩太熱無胃口的症狀
- 避免進食屬性溫熱的食物,例如蔥、薑、蒜、辣椒等香辛料
- 濕熱孕媽媽們更不宜進補

Tips to clear summer heat for expecting mothers
Being pregnant is one of the best experiences in the world, but at the same time, it also causes pregnant moms to feel warm all the time! Especially during summer, pregnant moms’ body temperature tend to be higher than that of the ordinary people.
Yet, pregnant moms should avoid drinking raw and cold beverages as they could hurt the spleen and stomach and accumulate dampness in the body. They might even risk getting the deadly listeria infection from ice cubes in the drink.
Does that mean pregnant moms can only suffer in silence for the sake of their babies?
Here are some tips by Chinese physicians to help you relieve the summer-heat!
Lifestyle:
- can enjoy the air-conditioner but avoid direct cool air; watch out for indoor and outdoor temperature difference and make sure it is not overly extreme because a sudden change in temperature can cause you to fall ill
- swimming can help you cool down but make sure you keep your body dry and blow dry your hair afterwards
- choose clothes that are loose, airy, and sweat-absorbent; bring extra pairs of clothes along with you when necessary
- put on a large hat or carry an umbrella
- carry a moisturizing spray with you all the time
- carry a small fan but avoid blowing directly in one direction
Food:
- drink enough water to hydrate the body; add lemon slices and mints to freshen our mind
- eat fruits that can clear the summer-heat according to our body constitution, for instance, coconut, watermelon, wax apple, honeydew, and strawberry; remember to eat it at room temperature after you have taken them out of the refrigerator; if you experience diarrhea or dizziness, the fruits might be too cold for the pregnant moms
- consume food that are bitter in taste as they can clear heat and cool the blood, strengthen the spleen and promote urination, and relieve the summer-heat; these ingredients include bitter gourd, lettuce, coriander, and mint
- drink a cup of rice water daily as it can help to strengthen the spleen and stomach, eliminate dampness from the body, and improve your appetite during the warm summer season
- avoid eating ingredients that are warm in nature, for instance, onion, ginger, garlic, and chili
- pregnant moms with the damp heat body constitution should avoid eating foods that are over-nourishing

【乾燥惹的禍】一到冬天頭髮亂翹不受控
⭐頭髮多毛燥人也燥起來
⭐細心護理亦可減少脫髮問題
#星期六放輕身心
四招改善秋冬旱毛躁髮
秋冬天相對濕度下降,不但皮膚感到「掹掹緊」,連頭上髮絲也變得有如禾桿草一樣,乾旱、開叉、毛燥、斷裂、靜電等問題接踵而來,乾燥的頭髮不受控,心情也大受影響。想整理好柔順髮絲,留意以下的護髮小貼士。
1. 慎選梳子
避免選用塑膠材質的梳子,用天然材料製造的梳子不會那麼容易產生靜電,例如木梳、牛角梳、豬鬃毛梳等。梳子先浸水弄濕才梳頭,也可以減少靜電問題。
2. 用護髮素
洗頭時水溫不宜太熱,最好接近人體溫度,洗頭後記得用護髮素撫平洗頭時打開的毛鱗片,尤其滋潤髮尾部份。如果經常使用捲髮棒的話,不妨使用髮尾油保護頭髮。
3. 吹頭技巧
洗頭後宜用毛巾印乾水份,用力搓容易產生靜電。風筒溫度過高容易造成頭髮毛鱗片受損,宜用暖風吹頭,風筒與頭髮保持至少15厘米距離,把頭髮吹至八成乾就好。
4. 髮油
於髮尾塗上適量髮尾油也能有效減低頭髮毛躁感。
5. 內在調理
中醫理論認為「肝藏血,髮為血之餘」、「腎藏精,其華在髮」,想秀髮健康就要注意肝腎保養,適量進食黑色食物,例如黑木耳、黑豆、黑米、黑糯米、黑芝麻、黑棗、桑椹、烏雞等,有助滋養髮絲。

Four tips to improve dry hair during autumn and winter
The humidity during autumn and winter is relatively lower; our skin tend to feel ‘tighter’. Even our hair will feel like haystacks – dry, have split end, brittle and charged with static electricity. We would not be in a good mood if we cannot keep it under control. In order to maintain silky hair, take a look at below tips.
1. Choose suitable combs
Avoid using combs that are made of plastic. Use those that are made from natural materials, as they can prevent the static electricity from forming. Consider wooden comb, horn comb, or bristle comb. It is a good practice to soak the comb in advance, as it can help reduce the static electricity.
2. Use hair conditioner
Avoid using hot water to wash the hair; opt for water that matches the human body temperature. Remember to use hair conditioner to smoothen and moisten the dry split ends. This is particularly useful for those who always use curling iron to style their hair.
3. Technique to blow dry wet hair
Using a towel to rub against your hair after washing it can easily cause static electricity. Use a hair dryer instead at an appropriate temperature, as hot wind can damage the hair. Keep the hair dryer at least 15cm away from the hair and stop blowing when it is about 80% dry.
4. Hair oil
Apply hair oil at the tip of the hair, as it can help keep them moist and reduce splits.
5. Regulate the body
According to Chinese Medicine, ‘liver stores the blood; and the hair is the extension from the blood’ and ‘kidneys store the essence; and the essence is reflected on the hair’. In order to have healthy hair, take care of the liver and kidneys. Consume an appropriate amount of ingredients that are black or dark in color, for instance, black fungus, black bean, black rice, black glutinous rice, black sesame, black date, mulberry and black-bone chicken, as they can help nourish the hair.

💡DETAILS: Grahams Natural C+ Eczema Cream contains clinically proven ingredients which aim to reduce redness and inflammation of the skin.

I would definitely recommend for anyone with dry sensitive eczema prone skin.
6. ORGANIC LIP BALM VANILLA
7. ORGANIC LIP BALM RASPBERRY

Their lip balm is smooth to apply, and is available in vanilla and raspberry flavours. Why not buy one of each? This lip balm is about to become your new go-to.
