Why should we raise the spleen and stomach in summer?
Chinese medicine believes that the spleen and stomach are the foundation of the day after tomorrow, and summer is not only the most fragile time of the spleen and stomach, but also the best time to nourish it. Health care must first raise the spleen and stomach. A strong stomach is strong, while a weak stomach is weak. If longevity is compared to building a house, protecting the spleen and stomach is to lay a foundation, and the foundation is not firm. Eating more nutrients and health products won't help much.

Methods of invigorating spleen and stomach in summer:

1, regular diet, regular quantitative.

Chewing slowly is the first step to maintain the spleen and stomach, especially those with bad stomach, and eat less spicy, stimulating and cold food. In addition, we should pay attention to the law of eating, don't wolf down, don't stand or eat while walking, and don't discuss problems or quarrel when eating.

2. Correct inappropriate ways to cool off the heat.

Correct some inappropriate ways to relieve summer heat, such as eating cold drinks before meals. Cold drinks can make the blood vessels in the stomach contract, and the secretion of digestive juice decreases, which is not conducive to digestion. In addition, milk and soybean milk should be heated before drinking, not on an empty stomach or on ice.

3. Warm care

The temperature difference between day and night changes greatly in summer. Patients with chronic gastritis should pay special attention to the warmth of the stomach, increase or decrease clothes in time, and cover the quilt at night to prevent stomach pain or stomach pain from catching cold.

4. Drinking time

The best time to drink water is when you get up on an empty stomach in the morning, one hour before each meal. Drinking water immediately after a meal will dilute the gastric juice, and the soup soaked in rice will also affect the digestion of food. It is best to drink soup before meals.

5. Pay attention to food hygiene

Wash raw fruits and vegetables, and don't eat spoiled food, because contaminated and spoiled food contains a lot of bacteria and bacterial toxins.
