How Can Melanin Be Eliminated from the Body?
Many people have pigmentation on their bodies, which is caused by melanin deposition. Once it appears, it is very difficult to treat, such as freckles, chloasma, etc. Melanin can do great harm to the skin. In daily life, we can promote the excretion of melanin and maintain a good state of our skin by avoiding exposure to ultraviolet rays, diet, and developing good living habits. Here are some tips:
The formation of melanin is closely related to ultraviolet rays. Therefore, we should reduce exposure to strong sunlight, especially after 12:00 noon when the sun is strongest. Wear a sun umbrella and apply sunscreen when going out. In addition, the radiation from electronic products we usually contact also contains components harmful to the skin, so we should pay attention to it.
People with skin diseases should be careful not to involve spicy, irritating, difficult to digest, and fried foods, as well as greasy and heavy-flavored foods. Avoid artificial additives and use hormones and contraceptives cautiously. Drink plenty of water and eat more fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables that are beneficial for spot removal include cherries, pineapples, lychees, apples, red dates, lemons, tomatoes, strawberries, cucumbers, oranges, aloe vera, carrots, eggplants, celery, etc. In addition, foods rich in trace elements such as copper and zinc, such as shellfish, animal livers, and some acidic foods, can increase melanin deposition and should be eaten less.
Our bodies are very sensitive, and even a small injury can cause a reaction. If the disease manifests on the skin, it will show dullness, inflammation, pigmentation, etc. Therefore, to maintain healthy skin, it is necessary to develop good living habits in daily life. Especially, staying up late can lead to the deposition of a lot of melanin. In addition, try to keep regular schedules for meals and bedtime, go to bed early and rise early. It is recommended to eat seven or eight full meals per day and avoid eating after 9 pm, as food contains toxins, especially greasy and heavy-flavored foods. Combine work with rest, avoid overexertion, exercise appropriately, and cultivate a good physique to look radiant.
If you often get angry or are under long-term mental stress and excessive pressure, ugly pigmentation will appear on your face and arms, especially on your face. Therefore, it is important to maintain a pleasant and good mood at all times. Traditional Chinese medicine also believes that emotions can harm the body, manifesting as dullness and deposition of pigment toxins on the skin.
To remove melanin deposition, you can massage areas such as Xuehai, Zusanli, Neiguan, and Dazhui regularly. Especially tapping gently along the spleen and stomach meridians can help detoxify. You can also do yoga and stretch your muscles to help unblock the flow of blood. Soaking your feet in the evening can also detoxify. Additionally, you can choose green tea, Baizhi, apricot kernels, and other spot-removing materials to make masks and apply them to the pigmented areas.
