Diet & Prevention

It is important to maintain a balance between work and rest; exercise daily to improve metabolism and release stress; and drink water to stabilize body temperature.  It is best to avoid eating uncooked (raw), greasy, pungent or spicy foods, fried foods, and chocolate.  Eat more lotus root, lotus seed, Chinese cabbage, water bamboo, spinach, bitter melon, cucumber, tomato, wax gourd, celery, mung bean, hyacinth bean, coix seed, and hawthorn fruit.  No smoking, drinking alcohol, coffee, and cold beverages.
