In Chinese Medicine, coughing phlegm, cystic acne, polycystic ovarian syndrome, hard nodule, foggy head, memory loss, poor focus, catatonic., nausea, sticky stools, obesity. are associated with an intern pathogen called Phlegm. In Chinese medicine, Phlegm is caused when the body fluid is not transported due to a lack of vital energy. The acupuncturist will prove that checking your tongue will be with a greasy coat.

To reduce the Phlegm in Chinese Medicine is recommended to avoid food like dairy, alcohol, and processed foods.

And it is recommended to add sour & bitter foods to your diet: dandelion, cucumber, lemon—celery, turnip, amaranth, quinoa, asparagus, alfalfa, pumpkin, vinegar, papaya.

I will also recommend going to your acupuncturist to have a treatment to reduce the Phlegm and bring your body in balance.
