Mango in the 24 solar terms

The awn seed is the ninth of the 24 solar terms, and it is also the beginning of the noon month of the dry calendar.

During the awning season, the temperature gradually rises and the weather turns hot. Therefore, people should strengthen the maintenance of the mind, keep the spirit clear and happy, and avoid being angry and depressed, so as not to hurt the body and mind. Due to the exuberance of yang in summer, the human body's yang also reaches the peak of the four seasons, especially in dog days, when the skin is slack, drugs can easily penetrate from the skin to acupoints and meridians, and directly reach the affected parts through meridians and blood. Therefore, treating winter diseases in summer can often achieve the best results.

So what should we pay attention to in the diet during the canopy season?

1, pay attention to clearing away heat, and eating some cool vegetables is conducive to promoting fluid production and quenching thirst, clearing away heat and purging fire. For example, bitter gourd, cucumber and asparagus are excellent choices;

2. Summer is the season with frequent intestinal diseases. Eating more "sterilized" vegetables such as garlic, onion and leek can prevent diseases;

3. Watermelon and other fruits are cool and rich in potassium salt. Pear, because it is tender and juicy, sweet and sour, and also known as "natural mineral water", is the best hydrating skin care product.

In the season of ear planting, the busy farming from south to north in China entered the busiest time. There is also a saying in Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia that "the ear is busy, and the summer solstice is full of nostalgia."
