Summer is hot and rainy, with high humidity, and it is easy to get sleepy. Spleen governs transport and transformation, preferring dryness and aversion to dampness. Damp-heat trapping the spleen will affect the normal transport and transformation function of the spleen, and then affect the tolerance of the stomach, leading to loss of appetite. In addition, people are prone to irritability in hot weather, and poor sleep will also affect gastrointestinal function, leading to loss of appetite. Therefore, our general diet principle in summer is that food should be light. Eat more mung beans, coix seed, bitter gourd, loofah, lentils, tomatoes and other foods that can clear away heat and dampness, strengthen the spleen and stimulate appetite. You can also make some slimming porridge, such as hawthorn and barley porridge, mung bean and tremella ice porridge, lotus leaf porridge and bean porridge.
