Tag: Yeet hay

According to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), many foods have inherent "energies" that can either heat or cool the body. For centuries, Asian cultures have turned to grass jelly, a popular herbal dessert, for its celebrated ability to combat 'yeet hay,' or excessive internal heat.

While the modern slang 'yeet' means to throw something, the similar-sounding Cantonese phrase 'yeet hay' (熱氣) refers to an imbalance of internal heat in the body. This internal heat can be triggered by a number of factors, including the consumption of alcohol, and can lead to various physical symptoms.
