Hot, Cold, Warm, Cool… foods?

Traditional Chinese Medicine often includes dietary changes to affect disease or discomfort. What you eat can affect your body’s reactions and can either make you feel better, or make you feel worse. If you have a migraine, cooling foods like cucumbers and most leafy greens and lettuces will help lower the temperature of you body and ease the pain.
