Foods that can't be eaten for clearing lung-heat and resolving phlegm:

1, cold food. Cold drinks or frozen drinks should not be eaten when coughing. At this time, if the diet is too cold, it will easily lead to lung qi occlusion, and the symptoms will be aggravated for a long time.

2, fatty sweets. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that cough is mostly caused by lung heat, especially in children. When a child coughs, the gastrointestinal function is weak, and fried food will increase the burden on the stomach, help damp heat, breed sputum, and make cough difficult to heal.

3. Shrimp and crab. Children with cough get worse after eating fishy food, which is related to the stimulation of fishy smell to respiratory tract and protein allergy to fish and shrimp food. Children who are allergic to some fish and eggs should pay more attention, among which silver carp and hairtail have the greatest influence.
