The answers are in! Did you guess them correctly? 👀

Kopi O (黑咖啡) vs Bubble Milk Tea (珍珠奶茶)
✅ Answer: Kopi O 黑咖啡 ☕️
Kopi O is warming (温性) and can overstimulate Yang ‘Qi’, leading to restlessness, palpitations or heat signs if taken excessively. Bubble Milk Tea, despite its high sugar and dairy content, is more damp-forming (生湿) than truly heaty — it burdens the spleen and can cause bloating or phlegm.
咖啡性温，易助长阳气，久饮或致心悸烦躁，阴津不足。珍珠奶茶虽含糖奶，偏于生湿困脾，易致腹胀痰多，却非典型热性之品。

Garlic Chives (韭菜) vs Cabbage (大白菜)
✅ Answer: Garlic Chives 韭菜 🌱
Garlic chives are warm (温性) and pungent, able to dispel cold, warm the kidney, and invigorate circulation. Cabbage, in contrast, is neutral to slightly cooling (平性偏凉), nourishing the stomach and intestines without disturbing the body’s balance.
韭菜性温辛香，能温肾助阳，行气活血，驱散寒邪。大白菜性平微凉，养胃润肠，不易致寒热失调。

Cherries (樱桃) vs Bananas (香蕉)
✅ Answer: Cherries 樱桃 🍒
Cherries are warm in nature (温性), beneficial for invigorating ‘Qi’ and blood but overconsumption can easily generate heat with overconsumption. Bananas, are more cooling than heaty being cold (寒性). They , clear internal heat, moisten the intestines, and relieve thirst. — making them more cooling than heaty.
樱桃性温，补中益气，助血行而偏热，多食易生内火。香蕉性寒，能清热解毒，润肠通便，生津止渴。

🧊 Liang Tehs are cooling, Longans are heaty. 🔥
But can you tell which everyday foods bring heat to your body? 🤔

In TCM, foods are classified as heaty, cooling, or neutral, not by their temperature, but by how they affect your body’s balance. Too much ‘heaty’ food can show up as a sore throat, acne, or irritability, but this also depends on your individual body constitution. What feels heaty for one person may not affect another the same way.

Guess which ones are more heaty – answers revealed soon! 👀

🍻 Alcohol & TCM: Finding Balance for Your Health
Did you know? In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), alcohol isn’t seen as “good” or “bad”, it’s all about balance.
🍺 When enjoyed in moderation, alcohol can help warm the body, improve circulation, and support ‘Qi’ and Blood flow.

🍻 When overconsumed, it can create excess heat, burden your Liver and Stomach, and upset your body’s natural balance. That’s why hangovers often show up as headaches, irritability, dry mouth, and fatigue.

The TCM perspective? Drink mindfully. Small amounts may bring benefits, but keeping balance at the centre helps protect your health and harmony.
💡 Curious about how TCM can support your wellbeing? Book a consultation with our experienced physicians today.
🍻 中医视角：饮酒与平衡
在中医里，酒并不是绝对的“好”或“坏”，关键在于 是否适量。
🍺 适量饮用：可驱寒、活血，促进气血运行。
🍻 过量饮用：易生内热，加重肝胃负担，打破身体平衡，出现头痛、口干、烦躁和疲倦等宿醉症状。
中医提醒：饮酒要适度。掌握平衡，才能守护健康与和谐。

You asked, we answer – Let's talk 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐁𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐞𝐲 (Job’s Tears/ Yi Yi Ren) 🌾

We often get questions like: “Why is Pearl Barley more common in drinks?” That’s because it is softer, sweeter, and friendlier for the mass market. But… it doesn’t pack the same TCM punch!

👉 Continue reading as we answer some of the questions you have on Barley.

大家关心的薏米问题，这里一次解答！🌾 薏苡仁你了解吗？

或许你会好奇：“为什么这些饮料里常用的是洋薏米？”
原因很简单- 口感更软、味道更甜，也更容易被大众接受。
但从中医养生角度来看，它的功效可就大打折扣了！

市面上常见的“洋薏米”，和中医常用的中国薏米或薏苡仁 ，其实是两种不同的食材。

继续阅读，我们将为你解答之前帖子里大家最关心的薏米问题。

山楂与陈皮能刺激消化液分泌，理气健脾助消化；薏米有助利水消肿；绿茶则可提升代谢、促进脂肪燃烧。
这款饮品虽好，但不建议空腹饮用哦！

🫖 材料:
• 山楂 6克
• 中国薏米（薏苡仁）6克
• 陈皮 4克
• 绿茶包 1个 （可选）
• 清水 500毫升

🔖 做法: 将所有材料放入沸水中，小火煮5–10分钟即可饮用。

Hawthorn and dried tangerine peel aid digestion by stimulating digestive juice, and regulating the ‘Qi’ in your Spleen & Stomach.

Better still, while Chinese Barley relieves water retention by increasing urination, green tea boosts metabolism and increases fat burning. Best enjoyed after meals, not on an empty stomach.

🫖 Ingredients:
• Hawthorn (Shan Zha) 6g
• Chinese Barley (Yi Yi Ren) 6g
• Dried Tangerine Peel (Chen Pi) 4g
• Green Tea Bag 1 Pc (Optional)
• Water 500ml

☀️ Mom is absolutely right about drinking more barley water in hot weather!

Chinese Barley (Job’s Tears or Yi Yi Ren) is known to clear heat and drain dampness, making it a perfect cooling drink for Singapore's weather.

For TCM benefits, choose Chinese Barley over Pearl Barley where possible. But if you’re in it for taste and a smoother, softer texture, Pearl Barley can be enjoyed too for its milder flavour and quicker cooking time.

💡𝐆𝐨𝐭 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐛𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐞𝐲? 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐮𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐮𝐬 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩!

妈妈说得对！天气热就该多喝薏米水。

薏苡仁有清热祛湿的功效，是新加坡炎热天气里的绝佳清热饮品。

在中医养生方面，建议优先选择薏苡仁。但如果你更注重口感与质地，也可选用洋薏米，它味道更温和，且烹煮时间更短。
