White dew season is approaching, how to do a good job of health? White dew is the fifteenth of the twenty-four solar terms of the year, and is also the first solar term in September. Every year, around September 8, when the sun reaches 165 degrees of the ecliptic, the “White Dew” festival, according to the interpretation of “White Dew” in “The Seventy-two Hibernations of the Moon” – According to the interpretation of “White Dew” in the “Seventy-two Hieroglyphs of the Moon” – “Water and soil moisture condenses into dew, autumn is gold, golden white, white is the color of dew, and the air starts to get cold”. Dew is a natural phenomenon that is unique to the White Dew season, as the temperature drops in the morning and evening, water vapor condenses on the ground or objects near the ground and becomes water droplets.
