1, bitter food
Chinese medicine believes that the property corresponding to fire is bitterness. Bitter food can clear away heat and fire. In reality, bitter gourd is a common food and a good food for removing fire. Eating bitter food in dog days will keep people away from humidity. When the weather is hot, people generally have a bad appetite and are prone to malnutrition, so that the body's immunity will also decline and the virus will easily find you.
2. cold vegetables
After entering summer, what our body needs to do most is to eliminate the poison of summer heat and dampness, so we need to eat more cold vegetables. There are still many kinds of vegetables in summer, such as loofah and cucumber, which are cool. Eating them regularly can quench thirst, detoxify and relieve constipation. Eggplant, tomato and lettuce are also cool vegetables and can be eaten frequently in summer.
3. Chicken
There is a folk proverb in our country, "Eat chicken on the head and duck on the second." Because in dog days, our bodies consume more physical energy, so we need proper nutrition supplement. Ginger slices can be added to chicken soup, because ginger slices are mild and can adjust the temperature difference of our bodies. As soon as we get out of the air-conditioned room, we won't be afraid, and we will soon get used to it, so that we can get rid of dampness and strengthen our body. If eaten regularly, it can radiate the accumulated cold in the body and prevent cold diseases in autumn.
