The overture chapter of spring, rain, as the second solar term, coincides with the tenth day of the first month of the first month this year as scheduled. Its arrival seems to put an end to the bitter cold and dryness of winter, and indicates that the temperature will begin to move towards a rising pace. As the spring rains gradually increase, the sky also becomes more moist. With the change of seasons and the change of climate, we should be more judgmental of the situation, adjust our life and diet, and conform to the laws of nature.
As the earth is deeply moistened by the tenderness of the spring rain, all things quietly wake up, full of vitality and vitality. However, in this time of spring, it is still necessary to pay attention to the chill that has not yet subsided. Especially when the rain is abundant, the humidity and cold go hand in hand, as the proverb of the ancients says, the temperature at this time fluctuates, and the human body is more susceptible to the invasion of external evils, showing symptoms such as colds and fevers. Therefore, at this time of year, if you do not pay attention to adjusting your eating habits, it may trigger physical discomfort. As a result, folk wisdom condensed into a warning: "Eat the rain, eat the spring." This sentence reminds people in a vivid way that during the rainy season, we should pay attention to the reasonable combination of diet and avoid eating improper food, so as to ensure the effective health care in spring, so that the body and mind can transition peacefully and live in harmony in spring. With the passage of time, we are about to usher in the arrival of the rain solar term, and the health wisdom of "rain ** eating" has also attracted more and more people's attention and curiosity. Now, let's unveil this mystery and learn more about it if we are keen to explore traditional wisdom and care for a healthy life. First of all, we should avoid eating cold rice and cold drinks. During the rainy season, although the temperature gradually warms up, the cold has not completely subsided. At this time, if you eat too much cold rice and cold drinks, it will irritate the stomach and intestines, affect digestive function, and even cause diarrhea, stomach pain and other uncomfortable symptoms. Therefore, we should choose warm foods to nourish the spleen and stomach and conform to nature. 
As spring approaches, the temperature gradually warms up, and the air is filled with a moist smell. At this time, the item is susceptible to moisture, and mold is also easy to grow. During this season, we need to pay special attention to our diet and remember not to consume foods that are susceptible to moisture and mildew, especially cold foods such as cold rice and cold drinks. Spring is a feast for nature, where everything is revived and vibrant. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the liver qi is vigorous in spring, and the "liver and spleen", that is, if you consume too much cold food at this time, such as cold rice and cold drinks, it is easy for the cold and damp evil qi to take advantage of the weakness, which will have a negative impact on the function of the spleen and make it fall into a state of distress. Therefore, it is particularly important to adjust your eating habits in a timely manner and avoid cold foods. 
In this special period of rain and solar terms, we should pay special attention to the choice of diet and resolutely avoid eating raw and pickled seafood. Especially for those species that have not been tried, you should be cautious. Raw pickling is generally pickled, and the process of pickling does not completely kill parasites, so it is likely that parasites will survive in raw pickled seafood. In spring, the rainy and humid season, if we consume raw pickled seafood, it may cause adverse effects on the body. Therefore, it is necessary to remember the principle of "three don'ts": do not eat pickles, do not eat pickled foods, and do not eat raw and cold foods. By maintaining a healthy diet, we can better protect our physical health. 
As spring gently approaches, a variety of fresh vegetables have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the shelves of the market are full of dazzling colors. In this vibrant season, the rain festival is like a moving poem, reminding us that it's time to nourish our bodies. So, dear friends, let's embrace spring, choose the fresh, sweet fruits and vegetables, and let them be the protagonists of our table. Fresh vegetables and fruits are undoubtedly a better choice than pickles. Due to their high salinity and long curing process, pickles cannot provide us with the nutrients that our body needs, but may put a heavy burden on our metabolism. Excessive salt intake can disrupt the body's water balance and make metabolism difficult. So, for the sake of our health, it's time to put aside pickles and turn to those fresh fruits and vegetables that nature has bountied. And bitter gourd, although it has the effect of clearing heat and relieving heat, it may not be the best choice in spring, the season of recovery. The bitter taste of bitter gourd may affect our appetite and make us feel slightly uncomfortable while enjoying the spring treat. So, dear friends, let's put aside the bitter gourd in the energetic season of spring and choose those fruits and vegetables that will give us more pleasure to our taste buds. 
Bitter gourd, this cold ingredient, is like a clear spring, nourishing people's desire to reduce fire and clear heat. In those hot summer days, or when the climate is hot and dry, eating bitter gourd in moderation can indeed help us adjust our inner balance and prevent the intrusion of fire. However, at this particular moment, the bitter gourd on the market is mostly a product of the out-of-season.
What's more, the cold properties of bitter melon are not suitable for everyone, especially those with weak spleen function, and need to be more cautious. Nowadays, the temperature fluctuates, and if you overeat bitter gourd, the cold in the body may quietly accumulate, which is not conducive to health care. Therefore, when tasting bitter gourd, we need to weigh the suitability of the season and the physical characteristics of the individual.
When the rainy season is quietly coming, in view of the abundance of most of our tables during the Spring Festival holiday, big fish and meat have become the main theme, and the body has been a little overwhelmed, so we should avoid it at this moment and stay away from those greasy foods, such as braised pork.
During the rainy season, if we continue to crave these fatty and delicious foods, it will not only stress the digestive system, but also cause cold and damp evil qi to settle in the body, causing problems for the normal functioning of the spleen. This is undoubtedly not conducive to the cultivation and boosting of our yang energy. Therefore, for the sake of our health, let's choose light food in this rainy season to reduce the burden on the body and add points to health.
In the folk "rain ** eat" health rule, there are five foods that are specifically mentioned. Raw pickled seafood, which is cold and prone to moisture, should be eaten with caution; Cold rice and cold drinks, they will consume the spleen, stomach and yang energy, affecting the health of the body; Bitter gourd out of season, cold properties may damage the spleen and stomach; Pickles, high salinity and long-term pickling reduce their nutritional value and increase metabolic difficulty; Braised pork is greasy and difficult to digest, and it is easy to cause spleen and stomach discomfort.
The taste of 2024 is getting stronger Therefore, in the special period of rain and solar terms, we should adjust the dietary structure and pay attention to strengthening the spleen and dispelling dampness. It is recommended to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables to nourish the spleen and stomach, remove excess moisture from the body, and minimise the intake of the above five types of food.
