Why can’t you eat white radish in summer

There is no scientific basis for the claim that you can’t eat white radish in summer. White radish can be eaten in moderation all year round. White radish is rich in nutrients and is a good food for most people. From the Chinese medicine point of view, white radish is cold, so for people with a weak spleen and stomach, over-eating it may damage the stomach and intestines, so it is recommended to eat it in small amounts. In China, the temperature in summer is generally high, and most people have the symptom of “bitter summer”, which means that they have a loss of appetite or a significant reduction in the amount of food they eat after entering summer due to the rising temperature. White radish is a cool food, so it can be eaten in moderation to promote appetite for people who have heat in their bodies. The mustard oil and dietary fiber in white radish can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis after entering the body, thus helping digestion, so you can eat white radish in moderation when you have indigestion, food accumulation or constipation. Although white radish has many benefits, but also can not consume too much, consume too much white radish may appear bloating, diarrhea and other gastrointestinal disorders. At this time, you can drink more porridge or water to replenish water, do not eat cold and greasy food such as iced drinks, fatty meat, etc., and rub the abdomen appropriately to relieve symptoms.
