How to distinguish the hot and cold properties of food

　　Human physiques are divided into cold and hot, and so are foods. So how to identify the hot and cold properties of food? Under normal circumstances, the cold and heat can be distinguished from the color, taste, growth environment, geographical location, and growing season of the food.

　　Greenish in color and cold in nature； Reddish in color and warm in nature . Green plants are close to the ground and absorb ground moisture, so they are cold in nature, such as mung beans, green vegetables, etc. Reddish-colored plants, such as peppers, dates, pomegranates, etc., although they grow close to the ground, their fruits can absorb more sunlight, so they are hotter in nature.

　　Bitter and sour foods tend to be cold； Sweet and spicy foods are hot in nature . Bitter and sour foods are cold in nature, such as bitter melon, bitter vegetables, taro, plums, papaya, etc. Those with pungent and sweet tastes, such as garlic, persimmons, pomegranates, etc., are hot in nature because they have been exposed to sunlight for a long time.

　　Aquatic plants are cold；Terrestrial plants tend to be hotter . Lotus root, kelp, seaweed, etc. are cold in nature. Foods that grow on land, such as peanuts, potatoes, yams, ginger, etc., are hot in nature because they have been buried in the soil for a long time and have less water. 》》》》 Unexpected10The most difficult food to digest

　　Food on the shady side tends to be cold； Sun-facing plants tend to be hot . Foods that are shady and facing north absorb more moisture and rarely see sunlight, so they tend to be cold in nature, such as mushrooms and fungus. Foods that grow in the air or have a positive orientation, such as sunflowers, chestnuts, etc., are hot in nature because they receive sufficient light.

　　Cold food in winter and summer； Food heat in spring and autumn . Food grown in winter has a cold nature due to the heavy cold, such as Chinese cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, white radish, winter melon, etc. Foods grown in summer are also cold in nature because they receive more rain, such as watermelons, cucumbers, pears, etc. Spring and autumn foods such as apples and oranges tend to be hot.
