What to eat in hot weather?

The weather is hot and dry. In this weather condition, the human body is prone to dry throat, dry nose, dry mouth, cough without phlegm, dry skin and so on. Eat less spicy food, drink more water, eat more hydrating vegetables such as aloe, cucumber, broccoli, lettuce, celery and tomato, and hydrating fruits such as grapes, pears, lemons and kiwis, and cook more soup to keep the respiratory tract moist and the mouth clean.

Pay attention to hygiene and eat more fresh and less oily food. Because this kind of food is rich in water and easy to digest, it stays in the stomach for a short time. However, greasy food is difficult to digest, and entering the duodenum and upper empty mucosa will also produce an intestinal gastric acid, which will slow down the peristalsis of the stomach and affect people's appetite.

Hot weather diet:

1, you should eat more foods containing vitamins and protein. Due to the vigorous metabolism in summer and the massive consumption of various protein and vitamins, the human body is often in a state of protein deficiency. Therefore, we should eat more soy products, eggs, vegetables and fruits in moderation to supplement our body's needs.

2. Eat less sweets. All kinds of sweets, such as sugar and cakes, contain a lot of sucrose and fructose. These sugars will be converted into glucose and enter the blood after being digested by human gastrointestinal tract and phenols, which will increase the concentration of blood sugar solution. High blood sugar can make people lack hunger.

3. The diet should be diversified. Changing the variety of food can increase people's appetite, pay attention to color and fragrance, often eat cold dishes, and add some vinegar and soy sauce seasoning to the dishes, which can increase appetite.

4, often eat heatstroke prevention and cooling food. Such as tomatoes, mung beans, hawthorn and so on, these foods are not only rich in nutrition, but also contain a variety of vitamins and trace elements, which can quench thirst, diuretic, detoxify, dissipate heat and stimulate appetite, and are excellent heatstroke prevention foods in summer.
