This is how beginning of autumn Shibu eats! Five ingredients, mung bean and coix seed, are used for eliminating dampness and relieving summer heat.
Beginning of autumn has passed, which means that hot summer is coming and autumn is coming! However, TCM reminds that beginning of autumn season is still classified as "long summer" in TCM theory, and long summer is "wet". In daily maintenance and diet, we should pay more attention to dampness and summer heat, so as not to damage the spleen and stomach unconsciously! It is suggested that you can eat more five kinds of ingredients such as coix seed and mung bean, which has the effect of eliminating dampness and relieving summer heat and helps to recuperate.

The "moisture" in the long summer is more important than the five ingredients to nourish the spleen and stomach.

Dr. Wang Meijun mentioned in his book "Twenty-four solar terms health and beauty book" that Chinese medicine believes that among the five elements, the long summer belongs to the soil, and the spleen in the five internal organs of the human body also belongs to the soil, and the two just correspond. However, the climate in long summer is humid, and humidity has the greatest relationship with human spleen. Therefore, the long summer is a good time to strengthen the spleen and nourish the stomach.

But it is also because of the long summer time and much rain that it is humid in the heat. If we don't pay attention to it in daily life, it is difficult to get rid of moisture and summer heat, which will easily lead to spleen and stomach being trapped, thus causing many discomforts such as listlessness, loss of appetite, chest tightness and abdominal distension. In order to avoid the above situation, it is suggested to use more sweetness in the diet to replenish the spleen. At the same time, it is a good dietotherapy choice to choose foods that strengthen the spleen and promote diuresis, clear away heat and relieve summer heat, such as the following five ingredients, such as mung bean, coix seed, cucumber and yam:
