Chinese medicine thinks? Spring grows in summer? In summer, the human body's yang is in a vigorous state. If you often sleep late, it will violate the seasonal variation law of human yang.

Third, the dog days are sultry, humid, and the air pressure is low. Bacteria and molds breed quickly, so special attention should be paid to food hygiene. Summer is the season with frequent gastrointestinal diseases. If people with deficiency and cold constitution are added, they will be more vulnerable to the virus. Such people try not to eat more cold food. Because ice cream, ice cream and other cold drinks contain cholesterol, sugar and starch, eating cold drinks affects normal appetite and aggravates diarrhea.
