Liking for cool drinks
喜冷饮 〔喜冷飲〕 xǐ lěng yǐn
A preference for drinking cool or chilled fluids a sign of interior heat. It is treated by clearing heat and engendering liquid. When yáng is exuberant, there is heat in the outer body; when yīn is vacuos, there us heat in the inner body. When there is heat in both the inner and out body, there is panting and thirst; hence a desire for cold drinks.
