Tag: Heaty fruit

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and other folk medicine practices, foods are classified as either 'heaty' or 'cooling' based on their perceived effects on the body's internal balance. This traditional system helps explain why some fruits, including the tropical rambutan, are considered to have a heating effect and should be consumed in moderation.

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Ayurveda, apples possess cooling properties, not heaty ones. This classification is based on the fruit's effect on the body's internal balance and temperature, a concept that differs from Western nutritional science.
