Why can't I eat in hot weather?
Eat light and delicious food
In hot weather, greasy food is more likely to lead to loss of appetite, while light food is not only appetizing, but also plays a role in relieving summer heat. For example, in the northwest of China, in summer, we often eat light noodles, fish paste and other foods, which are refreshing and delicious. As for dinner, you can drink some porridge, such as mung bean porridge, lotus leaf porridge, mint porridge and so on.
In addition, the proportion of cold dishes can be appropriately increased on the dining table. Pat cucumber, cold tomato, sweet and sour peanut, old vinegar peanut, cold radish skin, cold lettuce and mashed garlic eggplant are all good cold dishes.
Change recipes frequently.
Many friends feel that the meals in the canteen and at home have no appetite. One of the reasons is that the variety of food is single, and if it is eaten for a long time, the taste of food will be greasy and there will be no appetite. Therefore, the best way is to change the recipes from time to time, so that people who eat them have a fresh feeling and naturally arouse people's appetite.
Proper amount of fruit
The rising temperature in summer increases the consumption of vitamins in the body, and sweating is the main way to lose water-soluble vitamins at high temperature. Therefore, selecting some fresh fruits in a proper amount can supplement water, vitamin C, dietary fiber, minerals, carbohydrates and some bioactive substances, which is very beneficial to the body. In addition, when you have a bad appetite, you might as well add some salad dressing to fruits and vegetables to make a fruit salad. Friends who are not used to salad dressing can also use yogurt instead of salad dressing to make a unique yogurt salad. However, we should pay attention to the right amount. After all, eating fruit alone can't meet our nutritional needs. Excessive consumption of fruit will inevitably affect the normal intake of other foods, and it is difficult to ensure a balanced diet and reasonable nutrition.
Appropriately increase sour food and spicy food
Sour food and spicy food are typical appetizers. Proper amount of sour and spicy food is helpful to digestion and increase appetite, thus helping to prevent digestive juice secretion and gastrointestinal peristalsis that people often have in hot and humid summer.
Add some nutritious liquid food.
Milk, yogurt, soybean milk and freshly squeezed juice are all nutritious liquid foods. Eating in hot weather will not only reduce appetite, but also quench thirst and relieve summer heat, providing many necessary nutrients for the body.
Don't eat cold drinks.
Cold drinks are many people's favorite food in the heat. Eating cold drinks properly in hot weather can really play a certain role in heatstroke prevention and cooling, but you can't eat too much. Excessive consumption will reduce the gastrointestinal temperature, cause irregular contraction, and induce abdominal pain and diarrhea in severe cases. Moreover, eating too many cold drinks will definitely affect the intake of dinner and reduce our interest in food. In addition, cold drinks contain a lot of food additives, especially for children in the growth and development stage, so it is not advisable to eat more cold drinks.
