Many people like to eat cold food and drinks in summer to relieve the heat. But eating too many cold drinks will not only dilute the gastric juice, but also stimulate the gastric mucosa. Drinking cold drinks often, which is cool and delicious, is actually bad for digestion. Especially the baby, whose gastrointestinal function is not perfect, can't eat too much cold food.

Due to excessive evaporation of water in the body in summer, the digestive function of gastrointestinal tract is weakened. If you eat greasy food again, it will definitely increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and affect digestion. Therefore, according to the characteristics of summer, choose light, refreshing and digestible food.

The temperature difference between indoor and outdoor should not be greater than 8℃, and it is easy to cause air conditioning disease if the temperature difference is too large.
