Q. Seasonal Indigestion: Upset Stomach Every Summer

A.

Air-conditioner induced stomach upset/diarrhea is caused by consuming too many cold foods or drinks. Especially during summer, it's important to warm your body from the inside with warm Samgyetang (ginseng chicken soup) or ginger tea (using heat to combat cold).

📝 Detailed Answer

여름만 되면 배탈이 나는 것은 서습(暑濕)이 비위를 상하게 하기 때문입니다.

  • 원인: 더위 + 습기 + 찬 음식 과다 섭취
  • 증상: 설사, 식욕 부진, 무기력

여름철 찬 음료와 에어컨으로 속을 차갑게 하면 소화력이 떨어집니다. 미지근한 물을 마시세요.
