When summer comes, many people will suffer from poor appetite, weakness in limbs, drowsiness, etc., but no reason can be found when they go to the hospital for examination. Liang Fang, deputy chief physician of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine Oncology at Shanghai Putuo District Central Hospital, said that we are gradually entering what traditional Chinese medicine calls the “long summer”. In addition to the heat, it is also the season with the highest humidity of the year. In addition, this year’s rainy season is longer, When dampness is present, it affects the transportation and transformation functions of the spleen and the digestion and absorption functions of the stomach, causing symptoms such as loss of appetite, weakness in the limbs, and fatigue. Many people eat fruits and snacks instead when they can’t eat. In fact, you have to eat in the right way and make it suitable for you in order to eat healthily. [Luggage Oxford cloth]
Most fruits in summer tend to be cold. For example, watermelons, melons, pears, bananas, kiwis, etc. are commonly eaten, and many people like iced fruits to cool down. In this regard, Liang Fang pointed out that this may not be a problem for people with normal spleen and stomach functions, but it is not suitable for people who have always had a weak temper. She explained that during this season, the humidity is too high and the dampness evil traps the spleen, which affects the spleen’s transportation and transformation functions. Moreover, the dampness evil is a yin evil and can easily damage the body’s yang energy, leading to spleen yang deficiency, resulting in loose stools and oliguria. , abdominal fullness, even edema and other symptoms. Therefore, Liang Fang suggested that iced fruits should be eaten as little as possible, especially the elderly and children with weak spleen and stomach. For the sake of nutritional balance, fruits and snacks are only suitable for meals and cannot replace meals.
For people with a loss of appetite, Liang Fang introduced that tangerine peel, hawthorn and plum blossoms are good appetizers, as well as sour radish and pickles. , sugar garlic, etc. can also have an appetizing effect. When cooking, add appropriate spicy foods such as onions, ginger, garlic, peppers, and coriander, which can invigorate the spleen and dry dampness and whet the appetite; when making soup, add amomum villosum, grass fruit, cloves, and other spicy foods that regulate qi and dampness can also whet the appetite. The effect is especially suitable for people who usually have a weak temper. 【210D Oxford cloth】
In addition, the weather is hot in summer, People sweat more and like to drink tea. However, Liang Fang said that tea drinking should also be based on personal constitution, and you can choose scented tea, ginger tea, green tea, dark tea, black tea, etc. Ginger tea is suitable for people with weak spleen and stomach. Brown sugar ginger tea is suitable for women with dysmenorrhea. Green tea can relieve summer heat, detoxify and promote body fluids, but because of its cold nature, patients with weak spleen and stomach should only use it in moderation. Dark tea is a post-fermented tea. It can help digestion and fat loss, reduce fat and lose weight, and is suitable for obese people. For people with weak spleen and stomach who like to drink tea, black tea is a good choice. Its tea has a mild nature and can stimulate appetite and digestion. There are many types of scented teas for drinking in summer, but scented teas are mostly cold, such as chrysanthemum tea, honeysuckle tea, lotus leaf tea, nasturtium tea, etc., which have the effect of clearing away heat, detoxifying and relieving summer heat, and are not suitable for people with weak spleen and stomach and insufficient yang qi.
