In spring, people are prone to get angry, with yellow tongue coating, bitter taste and dry throat, so the diet should be light and avoid greasy, cold and irritating food. People with obvious symptoms of excessive internal heat can eat some foods that can clear the fire, such as mung bean soup, honeysuckle tea, chrysanthemum tea and lotus plumule soaked in water. The products of Xin Gan help Chunyang with some spicy things, such as onions, ginger, leeks and garlic sprouts, which are all foods that nourish spring.

2, less acid and more sweet to protect the spleen and stomach

Chinese medicine believes that the liver, one of the five internal organs of the human body, should eat food with stimulating temperature rise in season, and eat less cold and sticky food to avoid hurting the spleen and stomach. Therefore, in spring, we should eat more sweets, less sour food and yellow-green vegetables to prevent drowsiness in spring, and eat more red, yellow and dark green vegetables, such as carrots, pumpkins, tomatoes, green peppers and celery.

3. Choose food carefully and get sick less.

After the temperature rises gradually in spring, bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms also begin to multiply in large numbers, and their vitality is enhanced, which is easy to invade the human body and cause diseases. Therefore, you should take enough vitamins and minerals in your diet. Fresh vegetables such as cabbage, kale and broccoli, and fruits such as citrus and lemon are rich in vitamin C and have antiviral effects. Yellow-green vegetables such as carrots and spinach are rich in vitamin A, which can protect and strengthen the epithelial cells of upper respiratory mucosa and respiratory organs, thus resisting the invasion of various pathogenic factors and being beneficial to health preservation in spring.

4, gastrointestinal diseases should be cautious.

Diseases such as gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer are prone to occur in spring. In diet, we should avoid taking broth, chicken soup, fish soup, animal offal and irritating condiments rich in creatine, purine base and other substances, because these foods have a strong role in stimulating gastric juice secretion or forming gas to produce abdominal distension, which will increase the gastrointestinal burden. Avoid using these foods in spring.

5. Eliminating phlegm, moistening lung and keeping safe

Chronic tracheitis and bronchitis are also easy to attack in spring, so it is advisable to eat more foods with expectorant, spleen-invigorating, kidney-tonifying and lung-nourishing functions, such as loquat, orange, pear, walnut and honey, which are helpful to relieve symptoms and are the first choice for health-preserving fruits in spring.
