Spring is the season when everything recovers, and the weather is dry. Spring is also the best time to nourish the liver. You should eat more green leafy vegetables, less greasy food and more fruits, and it is best to eat an apple every day.
What is "fire"? Chinese medicine believes that "fire" is one of the six evils and a cause. It can be divided into heart fire, liver fire, stomach fire, lung fire and kidney fire. The word "fire" is ever-changing, and eating a melon and fruit is not enough to cure "hundred fires". There's pressure in here.
Generally speaking, eating bananas is the best way to reduce fire. Chinese medicine believes that bananas are sweet, cold, slightly astringent and non-toxic, and have the functions of clearing heat and quenching thirst, clearing stomach and cooling blood, moistening intestines and relaxing bowels, lowering blood pressure and diuresis. It is especially beneficial for people with thirst, constipation and other yin deficiency and intestinal dryness or blood heat and qi stagnation. People with spleen and stomach deficiency and yang deficiency eat bananas, which will be counterproductive, but will make the virtual fire more prosperous.
Take litchi as an example. Patients who are pregnant, bleeding, and damp-heat eat litchi excessively, but they will have symptoms of getting angry, thirst, nausea, and fatigue, and even bleeding and coma in severe cases. Such as apples, oranges and pears.
Watermelon is a pet with fire. Known as "eat two pieces of melon, don't take medicine". It has a great effect on quenching thirst, nourishing the heart and calming the nerves, but it is not suitable for patients with spleen and stomach deficiency, cold accumulation and cold pain, and loose stool's urine.
