Cleanse your body
Tomorrow is the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, and many people still observe the traditional custom of "cleaning up on the 28th." Many also buy pomelo leaves to soak in water for cleaning, to sweep away bad luck and misfortune. Pomelo leaves are rich in flavonoids, which have natural antioxidant properties and can inhibit bacteria. In addition to cleaning, pomelo leaves can also be boiled in water for bathing, which helps dilate capillaries and promote blood circulation.
