Lotus root is nutritious and can cool down the body. When the air is dry and water is insufficient, eating lotus root regularly can cool the blood, nourish yin, and clear away heat. It can be said that solving the problem of nosebleeds is a piece of cake. For the elderly, summer lotus root is a good food for nourishing the spleen and stomach.In addition, lotus root is also a health food for people with high blood pressure, liver disease, lack of appetite, iron deficiency anemia, and malnutrition. 2. As the saying goes, “Snake eel in Lesser Heat is as good as ginseng.” Almost all classic dishes from different places use eel as the raw material. Yellow eels grow in mud caves on the water banks. The most nutritious and delicious ones are the summer eels caught in the month around the beginning of the summer heat. In addition, this period is often the remission period for diseases such as chronic bronchitis, bronchial asthma, and rheumatoid arthritis. According to the theory of treating winter diseases in summer, using eels for nourishment at this time can better replenish the middle and benefit the qi, nourish the liver and spleen, eliminate rheumatism, and strengthen the muscles and bones. 3. Mung bean sprouts In the hot summer, cooking a dish of mung bean sprouts can clear away heat, detoxify, and promote diuresis and remove dampness. At the same time, mung bean sprouts are low in calories, but high in water and fiber, which can promote intestinal peristalsis and have a laxative effect. They are recognized as a good product for summer weight loss and a healthy vegetable for patients with constipation. They also have good therapeutic value for patients with esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, and rectal cancer. In addition, mung bean sprouts are cold in nature, and eating too much can easily damage the stomach qi. Therefore, people with chronic enteritis, spleen and stomach deficiency, and chronic gastritis should not eat too much. As the saying goes, "A good fate is not as good as good luck."
