【#24節氣－穀雨】是日穀雨
穀雨是春季最後一個節氣，穀雨前後，雨水日漸頻密，充沛的雨水滋潤大地，正是莊稼生長的最佳時節。這個時候氣溫開始回升，日夜溫差大，空氣中的濕度亦逐漸加大，令人特別容易疲倦，即所謂的春睏。多吃粗糧、少飲食生冷有助強化脾胃，濕氣自然不滯留體內，也是對抗春睏的最有效方法。穀雨的飲食原則應以健脾胃、祛濕為主，可多吃薏米、扁豆、赤小豆等食物以健脾理氣化濕，並要注意減少飲食寒涼生冷或肥膩等會加重脾胃的負擔的事務，減底外濕加上內濕對身體的影響。
溫馨提示：
1. 小米粥具輕微的清熱功效，適合脾胃虛弱又想清熱的你！
2. 如不想衣服有噏味，就要抓緊太陽出沒的時候，或開抽濕機晾乾衣服！
3. 睡醒時如感覺像沒有睡過般，是時候袪濕了。
4. 作適量運動，微微汗出，並保持心情舒暢。
5. 腹瀉未必是感冒，可能是濕重的表現。
Grain Rain Solar Term
Grain rain is the last solar term of spring and there will be increasingly more rain. This is also the best time for crops to grow. The weather is warming up and the temperature difference between day and night can be large. Humidity is also increasing which can make people feel tired easily, this symptom is also known is spring fatigue. Try to have more coarse grains, avoid cold and raws to strengthen your spleen and stomach so that dampness won’t stay in your body. This would be the best way to fight grain rain. The dietary principle during grain rain is to focus on strengthening the spleen an stomach and focus on dispelling dampness. Try to have more coix seeds, hyacinth beans, and rice beans. Avoid oily and cold/raw foods so you will not give your spleen and stomach additional burden and try to reduce the effects of internal and external dampness on your body.
