If you eat too much greasy food, it will hurt your spleen and stomach and affect the digestion and absorption of nutrients. Therefore, we should eat light foods such as mung beans, watermelons, buckwheat, jujube, chicken, duck, goose, crucian carp, soybean milk and pears in summer.

Flour, rice and coarse grains should be well matched, and coarse grains should eat three meals a week; Thin and dry should be well matched.
