I received a lot of Chocolate as Christmas Gift
this year (2005 ) . I would normally get many nice T-shirts as gifts but
not for this year. This is probably due to the fact that economy is in
such a bad shape that buying chocolate as gift seem to be a more
economical choice.
So after coming back from the party, I have decided
to indulge myself a little with those Christmas gifts. I began my
Chocolate feast soon after a nice bath. After an hour or so , I have
finished most of my chocolate that I received during the party . I was
in awe as I knew I wasn’t supposed to eat so much of Chocolate in hot
weather. Following the indulgence, I decided to take a nap after feeling
a little dizzy. So could you guess how I felt after the nap?
Extremely horrible ! I began to feel nauseating but
there was really nothing for me to puke out. Oh my neck, I could feel
there is an upsurge of “hot CHI” from my stomach to my neck. I could
feel there is an accumulation of “heat” around my neck area. I tried to
burp those “hot chi” out but I just failed do it as if something has
blocked my throat. I could barely eat anything while having a Christmas
dinner with my family.
I knew I have to do something or else I would
definitely on medical leave the next day.
I remembered that I was in the similar situation
when I had over-consumed Chinese mandarin during 2005 Chinese new year.
The remedy that I had taken was to drink lots of “Twenty four ingredient
medicated” Tea recommended by my grandmother, A traditional medicinal
herbs made of 24 types of Chinese traditional herbs. I decided to try
the herbs again by drinking at least dozen cups of that. After a while
of drinking the herbs, I began to burp and fart uncontrollably, and it
really eased off the pressure that was built up around my neck area. I
continued to drink those teas while farting. After a few hours, I have
almost recovered and I did go to work the next day.
What’s the lesson learnt from my painful
experience? Please feel free to eat whatever you like but do so in moderation,
so that you would never suffer the fate as me.
