Avoiding cold is an important concept of TCM health preservation. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that warm and cold foods will destroy the normal heat balance in the body, which will lead to many diseases. Some people ignore the importance of avoiding cold, often eat raw and cold food, and do not take good measures for conditioning and exercise. This may not only lead to some common diseases and frequently-occurring diseases, such as colds, diarrhea and internal injuries, but also aggravate any health problems accumulated by the human body for many years, thus causing adverse effects on health.

Avoid cold food is not to ban all cold food, but to take it in moderation, or to achieve physical balance by heating and cooking. For example, raw pig liver rich in vitamins contains melanin in addition to preventing night blindness. Eating too much will make the body's qi and blood unbalanced and the brain fragile; A large number of bacteria appear in lettuce and bean sprouts, which will lead to oral diarrhea and other diseases. Therefore, the only way to protect human health is to eat healthily and cleanly and master the intake.

Protecting gastrointestinal health is very important. By avoiding colds, we can protect the health of our stomach and intestines. Because the stomach and intestines are very sensitive organs, once you eat cold food, it will increase the burden on the stomach and intestines, which will lead to stomach problems, indigestion or other gastrointestinal diseases. So try not to eat cold food, choose warm food, such as white radish, cooked kelp, etc., to protect gastrointestinal health. At the same time, we should also pay attention not to drink too much, overeating and other bad habits, and follow the rules of healthy life in order to better protect our health.
