During the period of "getting angry", you should not eat spicy food, drink, smoke and stay up late. You should pay attention to maintaining oral hygiene, gargle frequently, drink plenty of water, and take "clearing fire" drugs under the guidance of a doctor.

In terms of dietary taboos, people who get angry or who get angry easily should try to avoid eating the following foods.
