Why does Lixia eat eggs?

One theory is that the ancients believed that the roundness of eggs symbolizes the fulfillment of life, and eating eggs in the summer can pray for the safety of summer. "Lixia ate eggs, but hot days do not scroful in summer." Many places have the custom of eating "Lixia eggs", which means that Lixia eating eggs can prevent common summer symptoms such as loss of appetite, weak limbs, and weight loss. Another way of saying: Lixia eats the most supplements, and eating an egg is equivalent to eating a chicken. After Lixia, farming became busy, and people became tired easily. Eating red dates and eggs is to replenish physical strength.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that eggs are calm in nature, invigorating qi deficiency, and have the function of calming the mind and nourishing the heart. Eating eggs when sick can help restore physical strength. In the past, when living conditions were not very good, red dates and eggs were hard to eat. Eating a Lixia egg was not only a reward before hard work, but also a hope for safety and a good harvest. Because eggs do not hurt the spleen and stomach, most people are suitable, so even those with chronic diseases such as high blood pressure, eating eggs in Lixia is good for health.
