Summer fire-fighting food recommended

When the hot summer struck, the heat became extremely unbearable. At this time, what happened? Listen to Xiao Bian to recommend several fire-fighting foods for everyone.

"Bitter" food can often clear fire and reduce fire. The bitter gourd in vegetables contains alkaloids, which can not only clear away heat but also reduce blood pressure. In fact, most vegetables have the effect of clearing fire, such as celery, tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbage, broccoli, carrots, green radish, cauliflower and so on.

Soy products such as soybeans. Soybeans contain more protein and soluble fiber, which can also supplement the body's nutrients and reduce cholesterol levels.

There is no lack of fruits in the fruit, such as pears and watermelons. Summer is certainly the watermelon of choice. However, watermelon is cool and cannot eat too much, otherwise it will cause diarrhea. Watermelon should not be put in the refrigerator for more than 3 hours and it will be frozen. Other fruits such as plums, grapefruit, and strawberries also have little or no effect of being heat-cleared.

The products that tea heats down and heat down are presumably honeysuckle tea and chrysanthemum tea. Green tea such as Longjing, Zhu Yeqing and Maofeng also have the effect of reducing the fire.
