夏天太熱沒胃口？
夏天給艷陽曬一曬，整天都身體乏力、精神狀態不佳、食慾下降、心情煩躁，還伴有胸悶、噁心的症狀，身體又輕微的發熱，但又不至於中暑，有人稱這種狀態為「苦夏」，中醫理論認為炎熱季節暑氣當令，暑熱傷了元氣會令人感到不適，暑濕邪氣亦會乘虛而入，尤其平日脾胃虛弱的人，在夏天多吃生冷食物，就會進一步損傷脾胃功能，更容易出現苦夏症狀。
要紓緩苦夏症狀，可以通過飲食調理，首先要保持飲食清淡，少吃油膩、重口味食物，以減輕腸胃負擔。其次可適量進食苦味食物，因為苦味食物多有清心涼血、健脾利尿以及緩解暑熱的功效，例如苦瓜、生菜、萵筍、芫茜、薄荷葉等。適量的酸味食物可以刺激食慾，亦能促進胃酸分泌，例如番茄、橙、士多啤梨等。
如果身體有濕的症狀，包括舌苔白色而濕潤黏膩、大便稀爛甚至黏馬桶、睡醒仍然疲倦不堪等，就要適量祛濕，多吃健脾化濕食物如白米、赤小豆、淮山、薏米、扁豆衣等，每天飲一杯米水，都可以有助強健脾胃，驅走濕氣，回復胃口。
✔推介米水：朝米水
功效：去水腫、消胃脹、改善面黃

Summer heat leads to lack of appetite
Exposure to summer heat may lead to fatigue and appetite loss, and we may not be in our best mental state which leads to irritability. We may feel tightness in the chest and nausea, yet not to the extent of suffering from a heatstroke. Some would call this condition as “Ku-Xia” in Mandarin, which literally means the bitterness experienced during summer. Theoretically, Chinese Medicine views that the heatwave during the hot season would hurt qi, a person’s internal vigor, allowing the heat from the damp-heat to enter the body. This is especially true in the case of individuals with asthenic spleen and stomach. Eating raw and cold food during summer will further deterioriate the functions of their spleen and stomach, worsening the “Ku-Xia” symptoms.
Through dietary management, we will be able to alleviate the “Ku-Xia” condition. First of all, keep your meals light, avoid eating deep-fried and heavily flavoured foods to reduce the burden on the intestines. Next, consume an appropriate amount of bitter foods, such as bittergourd, lettuce, Chinese lettuce, coriander and mint, as they can flush out the body heat and cleanse the blood, strengthen the spleen and promote diuresis. An appriopriate amount of sour foods such as tomatoes, oranges and strawberries, can also stimulate appetite as well as the secretion of gastric acid.
