Avoid eating cold food at night. People who have a short summer night, are older, or have a weak constitution often have cold stomachs and indigestion, such as lettuce and melons. It is forbidden in summer, so you should pay special attention to eating this kind of food at night. Also be careful not to eat meat, noodles or anything cold and sticky at night, or you will see bloating, vomiting and diarrhea. Avoid drinking tea on an empty stomach. Excessive drinking of tea, especially on an empty stomach, can easily lead to consumption of yang. If you are a salty person, the salty taste will cause tea to enter the kidney, extinguish the kidney yang of the lower jiao, and make people prone to joint pain due to hand and foot pain, and diarrhea, impotence, dysmenorrhea and other diseases due to deficiency and cold of the lower jiao. Therefore, drinking tea in summer should be two or three cups after meals, and stop drinking immediately when you are hungry.
Avoid bathing in cold water. Taking a bath in cold water is the favorite way for many young and middle-aged men to cool off, but the weather is hot in summer, and people's pores and muscles are in a state of venting. Therefore, cold air can easily invade the human body, leading to the loss of yang. There are visible symptoms such as cold hands and feet, hamstring twitching, blurred vision in both eyes, and even unexplained fever syndrome. At the same time, even if you take a hot bath, you should pay attention to shelter from the wind after taking a bath, especially for children.
To sum up, although summer is a season that can bring us a lot of joy. But we should also know that summer is also a season to be cultivated. Although the external body needs to be cooled by the impact of hot air, the internal maintenance still needs our attention, otherwise there will be no saying that winter diseases are cured in summer.
