Hot summers are especially prone to irritability and get angry. Everyone wants to drink some cool cold drinks to lower the fire, but cold drinks can only lower the body temperature at that time, and it is really difficult to reduce the fire. So if I really want to reduce fire and detoxification, I still need to find the right ingredients, and make real green health drinks without additives at home for the best results. I don't like to use a juicer very much. I always like juice with a little fiber, because fiber helps intestinal peristalsis, helps defecation, and can better discharge toxins from the body. The emerald green things are particularly refreshing and cool in summer, and they are also very attractive visually. So I chose bitter gourd as an ingredient, but the taste of bitter gourd is too bitter for many people to accept, so I use honey to neutralize its bitterness. For the honey, I chose linden honey of better quality, which was sent by a good food friend. It is the best linden honey I have ever come across. It is just right with bitter gourd juice. You can also use honey instead, but the taste may be slightly inferior. Linden honey contains amino acids, enzymes and esters. Linden honey is rich in nutrients, containing more than 70% glucose and fruit acid, as well as a variety of vitamins, inorganic salts, organic acid enzymes, and biotin that promotes human growth and vitality, which can improve health. It is not only a nutritious food, but also can nourish the stomach and invigorate deficiency, nourish qi and nourish the kidney, clear away heat and nourish the middle, relieve pain, detoxify and moisturize dryness, etc., and also have a certain sedative effect. It has the effect of curing and reducing high blood pressure, heart disease, constipation, insomnia and other diseases.

Bitter gourd can vent heat from the heart and remove toxins from the body. The best way to eat bitter gourd is raw or cold.

Often eating bitter gourd can enhance the vitality of the skin and make the skin tender and healthy. It is a good supplement for diet therapy for liver-fire red eyes, epigastric pain, and damp-heat dysentery; taking fresh bitter gourd and smashing it for external application can treat carbuncle and boils; children are prone to rash in summer, and try to wipe the bitter gourd slices on the body, and it will heal as soon as possible; Bitter melon is boiled in water or used as a delicacy to dissipate heat and relieve heat.

Bitter gourd contains substances similar to insulin, which has a significant effect on lowering blood sugar. Chinese medicine believes that bitter gourd is sweet in nature, bitter and cold, and can clear away heat, relieve irritability, and quench thirst.

Bitter gourd and linden honey are a perfect match for detoxification, moisturizing, calming, and beautifying. The refreshing bitter gourd juice, added with linden honey, tastes less bitter. The emerald green color is very attractive.

Ingredients

Honey Bitter Gourd Juice

1. Wash, cut, and remove the seeds of bitter gourd, and scrape the white part as much as possible, so that it will not be so bitter

2. Cut into small pieces into the food processor, add a cup of pure water

3. Use a baby stick or food machine to break

4. Filter out the residue and save the juice (you can omit this step if you like fiber)

5. Pour the juice into a cup, add 1 spoon of linden honey (you can also use honey instead)

6. Stir evenly

Tips:

1. I like a little bitter taste. Linden honey is just to neutralize the astringency. Those who are afraid of bitterness can add another spoonful of honey.

2. Bitter melon is bitter in taste, cold in nature when it is raw, and warm in nature when it is ripe. Raw food clears heat and relieves fire, relieves heat and trouble; cooked food nourishes the blood and nourishes the liver, nourishes the spleen and kidneys, can eliminate evil and heat, relieve fatigue, clear the mind and eyesight, invigorate qi and yang. But eating bitter gourd should also be careful not to damage the spleen and lungs. Although the weather is hot in summer, people should not eat too many bitter foods, and it is best to match spicy foods (such as peppers, peppers, onions, garlic), which can prevent bitterness from entering the heart and help replenish lung qi.
