Chinese medicine pays attention to "drinking more warm and hot water". The so-called heat energy can also drive away the cold, which is good for many organs of our body. However, it is not difficult to find that foreigners don't pay attention to drinking hot water. They drink cold water all year round, and their health is fine. What's going on here? Is our TCM theory wrong? Next, Bian Xiao tells you why.

1, constitution determines diet. China people and foreigners have totally different constitutions. We are cold and foreigners are hot, so we like to drink hot water and foreigners like to drink cold water. The main reason for this difference is actually diet. Our diet in China is dominated by whole grains, and these grains are neutral or cold in nature, so the diet from ancient times to the present has also created the physique of our people. On the contrary, foreigners, especially Europeans, mainly eat red meat such as beef, mutton and pork. These meats are hot and dry, so the physique of foreigners has gradually formed a warm physique.

Diet makes the difference of physique, and the difference of physique also makes the difference of diet. We China people like to drink hot water because of our constitution and feelings, and foreigners drink cold water all year round.

2. Water quality determines how to drink. At present, China's tap water resources can not meet the standard of direct drinking, and it needs to be boiled and heated before drinking. Foreign water sources are cleaner and safer and can be directly drunk, so foreigners rarely heat water except particles.

Bian Xiao wants to say that "one side of the soil and water will support one side." A country has its own eating habits, and there is no need to deliberately integrate or change them. What suits you is the best, so in the end, Bian Xiao will give you the familiar phrase "drink more hot water"!
