By True Scoop

Eggs

During the summer, it is recommended that you eat no more than two eggs per day.

Onions & Garlic

They can cause heat in the body, which may not be desirable during the summer. Use them in moderation, or substitute milder options.

Brown Rice

They generate a lot of heat when digested, and thus, they are among the foods to avoid in hot weather.

Honey

It is naturally warm and has been shown to increase your body's temperature, eventually making you feel overheated.

Peppers

They can be difficult to stomach for some people, particularly in hot weather.

Mushrooms

Consume them in moderation and explore lighter substitutes.
