Meat, noodles, and sticky foods should not be eaten at night, otherwise they will cause abdominal distension, vomiting, diarrhea, etc.
3. Avoid drinking tea on an empty stomach:
Drinking too much tea, especially on an empty stomach, can easily lead to the tea consuming the body's yang energy. It is also taboo to avoid the salty taste that leads the tea into the kidneys, which depletes the kidney yang in the lower part of the body, making people prone to pain in the hands and feet, diarrhea due to coldness in the lower part of the body, and other symptoms. Therefore, during the Grain in Ear solar term, it is best to drink two to three cups of tea after a meal, and stop drinking immediately if you feel hungry.
