Pay attention to Shui Mo Net's special topic for June 2022 to learn more.What are the taboos during the Great Heat?1. Avoid eating unclean foodDuring the Great Heat period, when humidity and heat coexist, bacteria and viruses reproduce rapidly, the incidence of skin diseases increases, and food poisoning is also likely to occur. Therefore, you must pay attention to food hygiene, wash your hands frequently, pay attention to fly extermination, do not eat unclean food, it is best to eat the food on the same day, and overnight food must be boiled and heated thoroughly. 2. Avoid simple tonic After people suffer from heatstroke, the heat has not yet dissipated, and although they have symptoms of deficiency, they cannot simply take supplements. It would be a big mistake to think that your body is weak and in urgent need of nourishment. If you take tonic too early, the summer heat will not subside easily, or the summer heat that has gradually subsided will come back, and then it will be more troublesome than beneficial. 3. Avoid spicy food The stomach and intestines have weaker absorption and digestion abilities in summer. Although spicy food can stimulate the appetite, you cannot eat too much, otherwise it will damage your spleen and stomach. 4. Avoid using cold drinks to cool down During the Great Heat period, the Yang energy is the strongest in the year. In addition to the summer heat, there is also damp and turbid air. In order to cool off, people often drink a lot of beer and other beverages to relieve the heat. If you are not careful, it will cause gastrointestinal discomfort and lead to diarrhea. What are the characteristics of the Great Heat solar term?1. Characteristics of meteorological changes: During the Great Heat season, which is around the middle of the dog days of summer, the weather enters the hottest period of the year. It is also the rainy and hot season, and the rainfall is significantly higher than in other months. During this period, farmers must not only pay close attention to heavy rains and prevent floods, but also make preparations in the fields to resist drought and ensure a good harvest.2. Characteristics of phenological phenomena: During the Great Heat season, due to the high temperature and rain, bacteria are easy to breed, and many dead plants become damp and rotten. At night, fireflies can often be seen flying around on rotten grass and leaves looking for food. In addition, the soil is hot and humid, which is very suitable for the growth of water-loving crops such as rice. The third sign refers to the humid and hot weather in this rainy and hot season, and rain may fall from the sky at any time. 3. Characteristics of agricultural activities: The temperature is highest and crops grow fastest during the period around the Great Heat. Early rice has entered the harvest period, cotton has entered the flowering and boll-forming period, and soybeans are in the flowering and pod-forming period. Although it is very hot during the Great Heat period, the crops in the fields cannot wait. For areas in China that grow double-season rice, the most intense "double harvest" season of the year, in which crops are harvested under the scorching sun and in high temperatures, has begun. As the saying goes, "Early rice seizes the day, late rice seizes the time" and "If you don't harvest the rice during the Great Heat, you will lose one basket a day." Harvesting early rice at the right time can not only reduce the damage caused by wind and rain in the later period and ensure a high yield and harvest, but also create enough growing period for the double late rice. |
