【#24節氣 – 立夏】
夏天到了！晝長夜短越來越明顯，大自然界陽氣漸長、陰氣漸弱，氣候開始悶熱，雷雨亦增多。春夏交替時節，肝氣漸弱，心氣漸強，春天養肝的工作告一段落，夏天宜適量進食酸味食物，酸性收斂，例如檸檬、百香果、烏梅，有助生津止渴、歛汗安神。這時候容易心火旺盛，調養上以清心降火為主，飲食宜清淡，更要少吃生冷，減低脾胃負擔，預防夏天容易出現的腸胃病。
溫馨提示：
．每天喝米水，減低脾胃負擔
．飲食宜清淡，不宜太滋補
．冬瓜連皮一齊煮消暑效果更好

Summer is here. The days are becoming longer and the nights shorter. Yang qi is rising while yin qi is falling gradually. It will start to get warmer with more frequent thunder and rain. As you go from spring to summer, the liver qi may weaken, and heart qi will strengthen. Strengthening of liver during spring will finish for now, and it is suitable to consume sour food such as lemon, passion fruit, ume plum to improve fluid production to relieve thirst, reduce sweating and calm the mind. The heart fire is prone to be overactive now so it is important to nourish your heart and relieve fire in the summer. Eat lighter and less cold/raw food to reduce the burden on the spleen and stomach to prevent digestive issues that tend to happen during the summer.
Gentle reminders:
．Drink rice water every day to reduce the burden on the spleen and stomach.
．Eat lighter and less tonic food.
．Have winter melon with skin to better clear summer heat better.
