Spring is getting closer, and this season is also facing the challenge of dryness. In such a season, symptoms such as cough and throat discomfort become common. Hello everyone, I am Sister Silly Food, and today I want to share with you a fruit known as the "Phlegm King", which is not Sydney pear, nor kumquat, but our common olive fruit.
The olive fruit, known as the "treasure of the south", is rich in nutritional value and medicinal value. In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, olive fruit is warm, sweet and sour, and has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, moistening the lungs and removing phlegm, and quenching thirst.
