Mung bean porridge: enjoy the long summer with porridge to maintain health

Overview

During the Qingming Festival, sorghum is grown in small grains; during the Summer Solstice, sesame seeds are grown under the mist. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that you should eat more spleen-strengthening foods during July and August, especially beans such as mung beans and red beans that have the effect of strengthening the spleen and removing dampness during the dog days of summer, which can remove the moisture accumulated in the body in summer. Eating mung beans in summer can also help clear away heat, detoxify and relieve heatstroke. Li Shizhen believes that porridge is in harmony with the intestines and stomach, which is the most wonderful thing about diet. In summer, use weakly alkaline mung beans to cook a bowl of rice and mung bean porridge or millet and mung bean porridge. It is refreshing and can regulate the acid-base balance of the body. It is really the most timely and first choice.
