1. It is advisable to eat less beans, meat, raw and cold foods and other foods that are difficult to digest, so as not to increase the gastrointestinal burden of the patient and affect disease recovery.

For patients diagnosed with heat syndrome by traditional Chinese medicine (such as constipation, oliguria, dry mouth, dry lips, red and sore throat, dry and red tongue, and peeling tongue coating), eating spicy food will aggravate the heat symptoms, thereby offsetting the effects of heat-clearing and blood-cooling medicines (such as gypsum, honeysuckle, forsythia, gardenia, raw rehmannia, moutan bark, etc.) and yin-nourishing medicines (such as dendrobium, adenophora, ophiopogon, anemarrhena, and scrophularia, etc.).
