Herbal tea is not only for quenching thirst, but also for clearing heat and reducing fire. However, if the degree of cooling is not mastered properly, drinking herbal tea will hurt the spleen and stomach. The advantage of the water is that it is refreshing and moisturizing without being cold. And the stomach is most like clear and moist, because the stomach is more gas and blood viscera, easy to generate heat, heat and injury to the Jin, so dry thirst. Therefore, when we are thirsty, drinking something cold is very cool, because it quickly clears the heat and satisfies the stomach. But if it's too cold, it will hurt the spleen, which is healthy when it gets warm, and cold will slow down the spleen's transportation function. Therefore, Chinese medicine practitioners will not advise you to drink warm or cold, but they do focus on the seasonal changes and individual constitution, but they will not be biased.
