Professor Medicinal Diet pointed out: Eat more melons in hot flashes.
Professor Gan Aiping, vice president of Hubei Medicinal Diet Research Association, pointed out that Chinese medicine believes that the above symptoms are caused by wet weight and fatigue of the human body and discomfort of the spleen. At this time, a large number of melons, cucumbers, cantaloupes and other fruits on the market are wet fruits, which will aggravate the symptoms of damp heat after human consumption. Therefore, these fruits must be eaten in moderation. Professor Gan suggested eating more easily digestible foods, such as wax gourd, loofah, bitter gourd and mung bean soup, glutinous rice and sweet potato. People with spleen deficiency should also eat yam, millet, sorghum and other foods.
Professor Gan said that winter melon is sweet and cool, and it is full of treasures. It is the only vegetable without fat in melons and vegetables. It has the effects of clearing away heat, promoting diuresis, relieving swelling and toxic materials, relieving fatigue, moistening lung and promoting fluid production, and has a good therapeutic effect on patients with diabetes, coronary heart disease, arteriosclerosis, hypertension, nephropathy and edema. In this season, in addition to cooking into regular dishes, you can also drink fresh wax gourd juice, or you can use wax gourd peel with salt and water. Of course, people who are cold, weak or have diarrhea after a long illness should avoid eating it.
