For summer, the hot weather has made people very upset, so even in the face of delicious food, they have no appetite. It is precisely because of the high temperature in summer that the peripheral blood circulation of human body increases, which leads to the relative weakening of human digestive function. But in terms of health, you should eat three meals no matter how hot you are, and you must meet your body energy needs on time. Because of sweating in summer, a lot of minerals in the body will be lost with sweat. If there is not enough food supply, it will easily lead to various chronic diseases. In fact, the most vegetables in summer are melons, such as loofah, wax gourd, bitter gourd, cucumber, watermelon and wax gourd. Cucumber vegetables are characterized by high water content and high potassium content, which is the best choice to replenish water to dispel summer heat and potassium to lower blood pressure in summer.
