The solstice in summer is the most energetic season of the year. At this time, the human body's yang is vented, the skin is slack, and the pores are open. Excessive physical exertion will make the human body's yang in a state of internal deficiency. Taking exercise is not as good as walking or jogging, Tai Ji Chuan. During and after exercise, you can drink more salty boiled water and mung bean soup, and ban a lot of cold drinks to avoid gastrointestinal cramps.
Summer solstice is not only suitable for eating "yang-nourishing" foods such as ginger, but also suitable for healthy people to eat bitter gourd and coriander. Bitter food has the functions of eliminating dampness, cooling and relieving summer heat, diuresis, diminishing inflammation and reducing fever, clearing heart fire and improving eyesight.
