People need to pay attention to their diet, mainly light, eat more digestible food, and supplement the nutrients needed by the body. They can't eat cold and exciting food, nor can they eat greasy food. They can eat more heat-clearing and dampness-removing foods, such as bitter gourd, white gourd and yam.
Third, people are prone to sweating in summer, which may consume people's qi and blood, so they can eat more acidic foods, which can not only enhance their appetite, but also achieve the effect of promoting fluid production and quenching thirst, promote digestion and benefit the health of the spleen and stomach. In life, people can eat more pineapples, lemons, tomatoes, kiwis, mums, mangoes, hawthorn and so on. These fruits often contain minerals and nutrients needed by human body, which can reduce the heat in summer, calm people's mood and make people's mood better.
Fourth, people need to obey the laws of nature. In summer, they can't be greedy for cold. They can drink some cold drinks to cool off the summer heat, but they should be temperate and not drink too much. People can also strengthen their physique through exercise in summer, but they can't exercise excessively. They can choose to exercise in the morning or evening, such as practicing Tai Ji Chuan or jogging, which will enhance people's resistance. People also need to develop the habit of drinking water at ordinary times. They can't wait until they are thirsty to remember to drink water. They need to drink boiled water or tea regularly.
