At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, the weather gradually becomes hot, and people are prone to getting overheated, even causing mouth ulcers, constipation, bloating, and so on. During this season, measures should be taken to extinguish fires. What is the best method of clearing heat and reducing fire dietary therapy?Let's take a look together.
1. Constipation and bloating:
Drink less cold drinks and more honey. The weather is too hot, and many people eat more cold drinks every day. As a result, they don't eat much food, but they often suffer from constipation, bloating, and acne. This is because eating too many sweets leads to excessive stomach fire.
At this time, one should eat more vegetables rich in fiber and eat less sweets, especially sweet cold drinks. Honey can moisten the intestines and detoxify, so drinking honey water in moderation is very beneficial. In addition, you may also want to try honey cassia drink. Boil the cassia seed with water on a high fire, and then boil it on a low fire for 30 minutes, then add honey for drinking.
2. Oral ulcers:
Eat more mung beans and celery. Summer oral ulcers, sore throat, and dry throat may be caused by eating too many warm foods such as lychee and longan. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that oral ulcers are caused by a "heart fire", and it is important to eat less warm foods and more cool foods such as bitter gourd, mung beans, celery, etc.
3. Dizziness and bad breath:
Pay attention to diet and avoid being too greasy or sour. Bad breath is mostly caused by overeating, poor digestion, and ultimately fermentation in the stomach. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that bad breath is a typical manifestation of excessive liver fire, so it is important to avoid foods that are too greasy, sour, fried, as well as chili peppers, lamb, seafood, fatty meat, etc. in one's diet.
4. Throat swelling and pain:
In this case, endogenous heat is more common than external heat. If there is high work and life pressure, frequent staying up late, eating spicy food, etc., it is easy to start a fire from the inside. Bitter tasting foods contain alkaloids that have the effects of cooling and clearing heat, promoting blood circulation, and are natural enemies of "internal fire". They can effectively deal with the "fire" in the body and heart.
