Dashu is the twelfth solar term in Chinese lunar calendar. It's also the last solar term in summer. Around July 23 every year, the sun moves to 120 degrees in the Yellow longitude, marking the beginning of the solar term. As soon as we enter the University, it's the time when the sunshine is the highest in most areas of China, and it's also the time when the heat is extremely hot. The temperature is very high in midsummer. The high temperature weather will speed up the metabolism of human body and consume a lot of protein. At this time, if you only eat some fruits and vegetables, it will cause protein deficiency, physical decline, and the human body will feel tired, sleepy, and weak in spirit. When the weather turns cold in autumn and winter, you are more likely to get sick. So at this time, we should eat some lean meat, eggs and milk properly to get enough protein. Duck meat is the best health food for big potatoes. Duck meat is very suitable for consumption in midsummer. It can not only dispel summer heat, but also supplement nutrition for human body.
