Second, gastrointestinal discomfort tastes new and early.
Around the long summer, cold and warm air frequently meet, people's immune function gradually declines, and their susceptibility to bacteria increases, resulting in weakened resistance to gastrointestinal diseases, and colds, fever and gastrointestinal discomfort are becoming more and more rampant. In folklore, there is a custom of "tasting the new" in the long summer. Eating some fresh fruits and vegetables in the long summer is very beneficial to people's health. A reasonable diet in the long summer can lay a healthy foundation for the whole summer. You can eat some bamboo shoots, cherries, barley and broad beans on this day. You can also eat some sour fruits to stimulate your appetite.

Third, nourish the heart and take a lunch break.
Heart and Xia Rong. The changes of yin and yang in the four seasons of nature correspond to the functional activities of the five internal organs of the human body. In summer, the heart yang is the most vigorous and has the strongest function. When the temperature rises, people tend to be irritable. This is because the high temperature has aggravated people's nervousness and excessive heart fire. At this time, people not only have great mood swings, but also have low immune function. If they have problems in their daily life and diet, various diseases will occur. After the long summer, the principle of diet is "nourishing Yang in spring and summer", and the key to nourishing Yang is "nourishing the heart". Therefore, we should pay attention to the special maintenance of the heart all summer. You can drink more milk and eat more soy products, chicken and lean meat. It can not only supplement nutrition, but also achieve the effect of strengthening the heart. Eating more vegetables, fruits and coarse grains at ordinary times can increase the supply of cellulose, vitamin C and vitamin B and prevent arteriosclerosis.

Noon 1: 00 to 3: 00 is the highest temperature in a day, which makes people sweat easily. If they are slightly active, they will consume more energy and be extremely tired because of sweating. So you can listen to music or close your eyes at noon, and it is best not to work overtime. The nap time varies from person to person, and generally it is appropriate to take half an hour to 1 hour. If it takes too long, it will destroy the air.
