They weaken your spleen and create internal dampness, which your body turns into mucus. If you want to get rid of phlegm permanently, start by cutting back on milk and sweets and cold drinks. Once it’s all cleared, you can go back to them - in moderation! Episode 14 of Mind Your Manners podcast just dropped - “What TCM Says About Phlegm,
