First, it is not conducive to the health of the spleen and stomach.
Pepper, pepper, garlic, onion and other spices in hot pot have pungent and fragrant functions, which can promote blood circulation and help drive away cold. However, spicy food is very irritating to the spleen and stomach and intestines, especially for the elderly and women with weak spleen and stomach. Excessive intake of spicy food is not conducive to the health of the spleen and stomach.
Second, the damage to human body fluids
Eating too much hot pot is easy to damage body fluid and kidney yin and induce various inflammations.
Third, it leads to mucosal damage.
The tolerance temperature of oral cavity and gastrointestinal tract to food is limited. Besides eating less spicy food, we should also pay attention to the heat. For example, the normal tolerance temperature of esophageal mucosa is 40℃~50℃. If it exceeds this range, it is easy to cause mechanical damage such as breakage and ulceration.
