1. Eat more acid and less bitterness.
Long summer is the season when the yang is getting longer and the yin is getting weaker, so the human liver is getting weaker and the heart is getting stronger. At this time, you should eat more acidic foods, such as fish, chicken, lean meat, duck, beans, sesame, onion, cabbage, eggplant, wax gourd, celery, asparagus, pumpkin, millet, corn, Shan Ye plants, batch handles, bayberry and cantaloupe.
2. Eat more food to quench your thirst.
Because of the hot weather in summer, it is easy to sweat, which leads to the loss of water in the body and the decline of digestive system function. At this time, it is advisable to eat more thin food, such as porridge and lunch soup in the morning and evening, which can not only quench thirst, cool and relieve summer heat, but also nourish the body. When cooking porridge, you can also add lotus leaves, mung beans and other foods that have the functions of dispelling summer heat, nourishing the stomach and clearing the intestines, promoting fluid production and quenching thirst.
3. Eat some foods that clear away heat and promote diuresis.
Usually, you should also eat more foods that clear away heat and promote diuresis, such as watermelon, peach, ebony, grass 4, tomato, wax gourd, a dish, cucumber and so on. Carp is a good diuretic food. In the long summer season, we should eat less animal viscera, fat meat and salty food, such as salted fish and pickles.
Diet should be light: Chinese medicine believes that after a long summer, the yang will rise and the weather will gradually get warmer. If people eat more greasy and easy-to-get-angry food at this time, it will cause fever inside and outside the body, resulting in acne, oral ulcer, constipation and other diseases. At the same time, don't overeat, otherwise it will easily damage the digestive function of the gastrointestinal tract.
