This is something we get asked a lot about. Fear not though, we have an eating plan to complement your @tinyteatox (though it's not compulsory to see results), and TCM practitioner @natkringoudis to explain how digestion works from a TCM perspective, ""Imagine a pot of soup sitting on a fire. Both the spleen and stomach are the organs responsible for digestion; they transform and transport to the body the essential elements of food and drink. The nutrients they draw from food are sent out around the body to nourish and the bad sent out as waste. So with this pot in mind, the stomach is the ‘pot’ and the spleen is the ‘fire.’ Therefore you may like to understand that digestion is a process that requires warm energy. You may also recognise that all foods have properties in how they behave energetically in the body. Those which are warming and invigorating (think meat proteins, some legumes, chili and alike) and those that are cold (like most fruits and raw or cold foods) which can slow down digestion and lead to weight gain. Raw foods tend to be very heavy on the gut and overconsumption may not only cause weight gain but also cellulite and upset guts. From a Western sense, our bodies digest food at 37 degrees. So when we consume raw and uncooked foods, not only does it have work like madness to digest, but it first has to get the temperature of the food up to 37 before it can effectively deal with it. So consuming warm foods makes digestion is much more efficient. Sugar is also avoided as it is rapidly converted and stored as fat. You will notice uncooked fruit is on the out list as it is not only high in sugar but also raw which again leads to weight gain" ? ??? tap the link in our bio to see Nat's eating plan ??? #yourtea #TinyTea #tinyteatox #tcm #nourishandrevitalise #organictea #eatingplan #healthandwellness
