Lets talk about Ice Cold Drinks, I know you love your iced coffee but listen in! If you’re my patient you have heard me talk about this before
Our digestive fire—also known as “Spleen Yang” or “Stomach Fire”—is the internal warmth and energy our body uses to break down food, absorb nutrients, and turn that into energy.
Think of it like your internal stove. It needs to be warm and strong to function properly. If you pour something cold (like ice water) on a hot flame, what happens? 🔥➡️❄️ It weakens or goes out.
That’s essentially what cold drinks can do to our digestion! They cool down our digestive fire, making it harder for our body to process food efficiently. This can lead to bloating, fatigue, low energy, and even hormonal issues over time.
So, keeping that fire strong = better digestion, better energy, and better overall health. 💪✨
Have any questions? Feel free to DM me to talk about it!
