The sputum mentioned in this sentence is not the sputum discharged from the respiratory tract in our traditional sense. It's garbage discharged from our digestive tract.
Pigs are omnivores, and they eat all sorts of things, including swill. Therefore, naturally, some body wastes will be produced. If these substances are not metabolized, some of them will be stored in the body as fat or between tissues and viscera.
When people eat the pork, they also eat the garbage in the meat together, so the process of expectoration after eating and drinking is actually a normal physiological reaction.
In other words, it can expel phlegm, indicating that people's bodies are still healthy. Spitting, like defecation, is also a detoxification process. ? If we eat beef and mutton instead of pork. Because these animals eat grass, there is less garbage in meat than pork, so people who often eat these meats are not easy to get phlegm. If they eat mutton, they are easy to get angry.
From the common fish in our life, first, strengthen the spleen and stomach, and second, remove dampness. It can be said that this is a great effect of fish. Therefore, we can see that pigs are fat, but less sheep are fat, cows are fat, and even less fish are fat.
Fish has less fat, but protein has more. ? As far as modern people's physique is concerned, due to the use of air conditioning and eating junk food, modern people suffer from cold syndrome, basically no "fire", and their physique is wet with phlegm, so most of them are fat. Therefore, this folk proverb is correct, but fish can't make a fire.

Eating in this way will not cause phlegm and get angry.
Now when it comes to "fish make a fire, meat makes phlegm", we can't help but talk about food safety. In recent years, food safety has become a topic of general concern in society. According to media reports, most of the abundant pork, chicken, duck and fish on the market today are produced by hormone feeding in farms. This production method shortens the breeding cycle and improves the yield and economic profit, but it brings health risks.
Even strawberries, apples, bananas and other crops are planted with hormones to ripen. In addition, whether children's snacks, milk and various nutrients have added some bad materials is a topic worthy of public attention.
Because most social problems such as precocious puberty and tumor rejuvenation of modern children are related to this. Many "delicious" foods with beautiful surfaces have already lost their nutritional value in the past, and even contain inexplicable toxins. How can we not "make a fire and produce phlegm"?
In such a social environment, there are principles for choosing safe and nutritious recipes for children: paying attention to nursing children's spleen and stomach functions; Choose natural foods suitable for children.
