Even though summer is hot and temperatures are high, the large temperature difference between indoors and outdoors makes summer a season of colds. Therefore, it is essential to take preventive measures during the cold season. When it comes to preventing colds, many people think of their long-stored cold medicine such as Ganmaoling granules and Banlangen. However, today I want to share with you not ready-made cold medicine, but therapeutic diets for preventing colds. Let's take a look at the ingredients needed for these therapeutic diets for preventing colds!
