Do you believe cold or warm foods to be better for your health?

@MalteseFalconPunch Yeah I hadn’t really thought about it before either. It’s an idea in Chinese Medicine, not sure if any other cultures have a adapted a similar theory

@assemblingaknob Temperature so sushi for example is usually served cold and salad quite often. Whereas soups, stews, ramen etc tend to be warm and I’m learning easier for the body to digest.

@Notladylike Doesn't the temperature in our mouth warm the food? Like we chew it, then swallow it, and it stays in our stomach for a good hour before moving on to the intestines to be digested... So why does it matter what temperature a dish is served?

@assemblingaknob I’m with you I didn’t realise this was even a thing.

I’m getting acupuncture for different issues atm related to my spleen which apparently needs warm stuff to digest easier 🤷‍♀️. I’m interested to see what happens. I’m also taking these Chinese herbs which are warming my body, as I tend to always feel cold.

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether It would seem so hey

@DearAmbellina2113 How come?

@Notladylike because cold food all the time can "shock" the body (which stays perpetually warm on the inside).

@DearAmbellina2113 That makes so much sense, I can’t believe I’m only learning this at 37

@Donotfolowme Is this something obvious that no one told me about because I had no parents around? 🤔

@Notladylike This is obviously something I am telling you right since no one is around. Now, go n heat it up already 😒

@Donotfolowme Thank you 🤗. I made a chicken rice bowl tonight 😋 no more bloody salads haha
