Dr. He Haochen
Eating nourishing yin and clearing heat foods can help alleviate symptoms of yin deficiency with hyperactive fire, such as lotus seeds, winter melon, white fungus (silver ear), etc. It's also appropriate to consume more strawberries, mung beans, eggs, and milk. During yin deficiency with fire excess, the diet should mainly be light; avoid spicy, stimulating, and greasy foods. Additionally, maintain a regular sleep schedule and avoid staying up late for extended periods.
