What is mentioned here for Shanghai does naturally also apply for Ningbo residence
By Zhang Qian | July 3, 2014
THE plum rain (mei yu) season arrives in Shanghai when plums get mature in the region south of the Yangtze River — hence the name.
Appreciating mature plums in rain may sound romantic, but the monsoon weather is hot, wet and muggy.
Characterized by high temperature, frequent rain and high humidity, plum rain is annoying to most residents here as it not only encourages bacteria growth, but also triggers various ailments including poor digestion, aggravated eczema and risk of cardiovascular disease relapse.
Pathogenic dampness is a big enemy to the spleen (digestive system), which operates best in a “dry” environment, says Dr Liu Wen, chief physician of Longhua Hospital attached to Shanghai University of TCM.
The spleen, according to TCM, is responsible for digesting and transporting nutrition to all organs and supporting water metabolism within the body.
With pathogenic dampness invading, the normal transportation and nutrition and water is damaged, which may lead to indigestion problems like abdominal distension, poor appetite and diarrhea that causes fluid loss and exhaustion. People may also suffer fatigue that’s hard to relieve.
“Though most people will feel discomfort in the season, they do not necessarily all suffer that much,” says Dr Liu. “Some people may naturally get over it within days when they get adapted, but it may stay as a problem for the weak.”
