TCM is traditional chinese medicine. Also cooling stuff as in herbs? Did they tell you to consume cooking foods? Like coco water, cucumbers etc.
Not all herbs are "cooling". They did ask me to avoid "heaty" food. You can google for the list of "cooling" and "heaty" food. Sometimes, they also can't make up their mind if something is "cooling" or "heaty". So you might find some contradicting information.

I know that not all herbs are cooling because not everyone deals with heat (yang). Some people are cold so that’s why there is cooling and heating herbs.
