Heat and dampness are TCM terms. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that heat and dampness are both pathogenic factors of exogenous pathogens, which can easily be combined to attack the human body and produce various uncomfortable symptoms, especially dampness. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it can be divided into internal dampness and external dampness. External dampness is mainly related to the humidity of living environment, while internal dampness is mainly related to the dysfunction of viscera, that is, the function of spleen transporting and transforming water and dampness is reduced, which leads to the evil of water and dampness in the body. The evil of damp-heat can be produced after a long period of stagnation. Damp-heat pathogens fight against each other and invade human tissues and meridians, which will lead to a series of uncomfortable symptoms. In view of the evil of damp-heat, Chinese medicine usually adopts the methods of clearing heat, promoting diuresis and strengthening the spleen, and dietotherapy is a better method. All the above foods have the functions of clearing away heat and promoting diuresis.
