Taboo 1: Greed and Coolness

Xiao Man is in late May, the temperature has increased significantly, and the fan air conditioning is also on. But over time, some people have dizziness, chest tightness, or stiffness of shoulder and neck.

Moreover, long-term drinking may also cause gastrointestinal dysfunction, dyspepsia, loss of appetite, acute gastroenteritis and so on.
