Q. Every summer, I suffer from the heat, losing my appetite and feeling drained.

A.

The loss of vital fluids through sweat leads to a state of "Gi-jin-maek-jin" (氣盡脈盡), meaning you're utterly exhausted. Just as our ancestors ate Samgyetang during Boknal (the dog days of summer), you should replenish your lost energy with a restorative tonic containing Hwanggi (Astragalus) or Insam (Ginseng), such as Saengmaeksan or Bojungikgi-tang.

📝 Detailed Answer

여름은 겉은 뜨겁지만 속은 차가워지기 쉬운 계절입니다.

  • 생맥산: "맥을 다시 살린다"는 뜻으로 오미자, 인삼, 맥문동을 달인 여름철 최고의 음료입니다.
  • 주의: 찬 음료와 에어컨은 속을 더 냉하게(배탈) 만듭니다. 이열치열로 속을 데우세요.
  • 증상: 어지러움, 구토, 무기력, 갈증
💡 제철 과일

수박과 참외는 몸의 열을 식히고 수분을 보충해주는 천연 해열제입니다.
