As the saying goes, "medicine is better than food." As a big food country that believes in "medicine and food are homologous", food tonic has always been a popular way of health preservation in China. In this hot summer, Tongrentang Healthy Kitchen has prepared three kinds of health-care soup and porridge suitable for mango, summer solstice and light summer solar terms for everyone in a limited time, teaching you how to conform to the solar terms and be the most popular "national tide health" person at present.
Summer diet, avoid cold soup and porridge.
According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, summer belongs to fire in the five elements, corresponding to the heart in the five internal organs, so summer health care should pay special attention to the conditioning of the mind. In addition, summer is hot and rainy, humid and sultry, which is easy to cause strong heart fire. Summer heat is easy to enter at this time, and problems such as heatstroke and eczema are easy to occur. Therefore, the focus of summer health care lies in clearing away heat and dampness. At the same time, we should pay attention to protect the human body's yang in summer to prevent eating cold food in summer, thus hurting the body's yang.
In hot summer, many people like to sit in air-conditioned rooms and eat iced watermelons to cool off. Or after strenuous exercise, the whole body is sweaty, and immediately drink cold drinks or eat ice cream. As we all know, eating too cold food in summer can only play a temporary role in alleviating the heat, but it can't really achieve the purpose of cooling off the heat. Eating too much cold food may also cause problems such as intestinal diseases. Therefore, summer diet should be light and easy to digest, and cold and greasy food should not be eaten too much.
When the yang is strong in summer, the body's metabolism is vigorous, and the body fluid loses more water, which is easy to hurt the body fluid and consume gas. At this time, eating some soup porridge that can quench thirst and relieve summer heat can supplement the water needed by the human body, and secondly, it can achieve the purpose of nourishing health and clearing away heat and relieving summer heat by matching rich ingredients.
