1, food for daily treatment
Drink ginger tea to relieve nausea.
Dozens of studies have proved that ginger can relieve nausea and nausea symptoms of motion sickness (motion sickness, seasickness and airsickness, etc.). ), but also can help pregnant women overcome morning sickness. For example, 1 4 teaspoon of ginger powder, 0.5- 1 teaspoon of ginger powder, or1cup of ginger tea can all play an antiemetic role. Take a slice of ginger before taking a bus, boat or plane, and then take motion sickness medicine, the effect will be better. The researchers said that ginger is effective and safe in treating nausea, and will not produce side effects such as dry mouth and dizziness.
Basil is used to treat stomach upset.
Many studies have found that eugenol in basil (also known as spearmint) can relieve abdominal pain, nausea, stomach cramps and diarrhea by killing Salmonella and Listeria. Dr Mildred Matfield Beaman, director of the Department of Nutrition at St. Louis University in the United States, said that the effect of basil on spasm is very remarkable, and mashed fresh basil can be added to sauces and cold salads.
Eating pears to reduce blood fat
A medium-sized pear contains 5 grams of dietary fiber, mostly in the form of colloid. This dietary fiber helps to "wash away" the "bad cholesterol" (that is, low-density lipoprotein) in the body. Excessive harmful cholesterol levels are the main risk factors for heart disease. A recent study by American nutritionists found that taking 10g dietary fiber from pears and other foods can meet 40% of people's daily dietary fiber requirements.
Two spoonfuls of honey to relieve cough.
A study by Pennsylvania State University found that two teaspoons of honey can relieve children's cough better than over-the-counter cough medicine. Dr. John Lapma, director of Shafu Clinic in California, said that the antioxidant and antibacterial properties of honey can help relieve inflammation and redness of the pharynx.
A serving of cabbage can prevent gastric ulcer.
A study by Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine found that nutrients contained in cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage can effectively kill Helicobacter pylori. It is the chief culprit leading to gastric ulcer and digestive tract ulcer. The study also found that eating more cabbage can even help suppress digestive tract tumors. Eating 1 small cup (about 9 1 g) of Chinese cabbage only consumes 34 calories, but you can get 3 grams of dietary fiber and a lot of vitamin C, which can meet 75% of the daily vitamin C requirement.
Eating turkey relieves insomnia
Tryptophan is an important amino acid, which helps the human body to produce serotonin and melatonin that regulate sleep. Many studies have shown that the level of tryptophan in insomnia patients is low, while turkey and chicken are rich in tryptophan. Eating 85 grams of turkey every day can meet the daily demand for tryptophan.
Four figs prevent hemorrhoids.
Dr. Elizabeth Mason, a famous American nutritionist, said that four dried figs contain 3 grams of dietary fiber, which can make the stool soft and smooth, thus preventing the recurrence of hemorrhoids. The potassium and manganese contained in fig can meet the daily intake of 5% and 10% respectively.
Bananas relieve anxiety.
Dutch scientists have found that bananas help to relieve psychological stress, anxiety and depression, and make people happier. Dr Molly kimball, a registered physician of sports nutrition in New Orleans Fitness Center, suggests that when you feel stressed and anxious, eat a banana. A medium-sized banana contains 65,438+005 calories and 65,438+04 grams of sugar, which helps to moderately raise the blood sugar level, meet 30% of the daily intake of vitamin B6, and help the brain to synthesize more serotonin, thus resisting depression and anxiety.
A handful of raisins helps to lower blood pressure.
The results showed that a handful of raisins (about 60 pieces) contained 1g dietary fiber and 2 12mg potassium. Potassium can lower blood pressure, and dietary fiber can also lower blood pressure by reducing the risk of arteriosclerosis. Both of them are antihypertensive nutrients recommended by "diet therapy for stopping hypertension" in the United States. A large number of studies have shown that polyphenols contained in grapes, raisins and wine help to maintain cardiovascular health. A study conducted by researchers at the Center for Metabolism and Atherosclerosis in Louisville, Kentucky, USA, aimed at prehypertensive patients (blood pressure is between130/80-139/89mmhg) found that after eating a handful of raisins 12 weeks three times a day, the systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure of participants decreased by 6-65438+ respectively.
A cup of yogurt prevents flatulence.
A study published in the American Journal of Nutritional Pharmacology and Therapeutics found that 1.5 cup (about 368g) probiotic yogurt can greatly improve the digestion and absorption capacity of gastrointestinal tract. Dr. kimball said that under normal circumstances, beans and lactose are difficult to digest. Once the intestinal function is indigestion, it will easily lead to flatulence and farting in the abdomen, and drinking yogurt will help solve this embarrassing problem. Experts suggest that drinking 1 cup of yogurt every day after meals or about two hours before meals has a certain effect on constipation and flatulence.
8 Dried apricots prevent kidney calculi.
Dr Christine Gerbstadt, a nutritionist in Florida and a spokesperson for the American Nutrition Society, said that eight dried apricots contain 2 grams of dietary fiber and 325 milligrams of potassium, and only 3 milligrams of sodium. All these help to prevent minerals from accumulating in urine and forming calcium oxalate stones, the most common of which is kidney calculi.
Canned tuna can drive away depression.
A can of tuna contains about 800 mg of omega-3 fatty acids. Studies have found that omega-3 fatty acids help to treat depression. Dr Elizabeth Mason, a famous American nutritionist, said that the American Psychiatric Association has included omega-3 fatty acids in the treatment of depression.
A glass of orange juice can relieve fatigue.
American nutritionist Dr. Gerberstadt said that drinking a glass of orange juice every day can quickly eliminate fatigue, and fructose in orange juice plays a key role. Many studies have shown that vitamin C in orange juice can resist oxidative stress caused by free radicals and provide energy for human body. Vitamin C also plays a key role in iron metabolism, thus increasing the oxygen carrying capacity of blood flow more effectively.
Garlic inhibits mold infection
It is found that allicin is a special substance in garlic and has inhibitory effect on mold. Many studies also show that thyme, clove and orange essential oils are also effective fungicides. Experts suggest that mashed garlic can be eaten with sauce and cold salad.
Drink chamomile tea to relieve heartburn
Dr Dale Bayless Field, a clinical herbalist in New Jersey, USA, said that chamomile can relieve symptoms such as inflammation, spasm and flatulence in the digestive tract. Add 2 teaspoons of chamomile to about 280 grams of boiling water, cover and soak for 20 minutes. Drinking it several times a day can relieve heartburn.
Eat potatoes to stop headaches.
A medium-sized potato contains 37 grams of carbohydrates, which can relieve headache symptoms by raising serotonin levels. The headache after drunkenness can be completely relieved by eating potatoes. The reason is that excessive drinking easily leads to dehydration and the loss of trace element potassium, which leads to electrolyte imbalance in the body. Therefore, eating potassium-rich foods such as potatoes and bananas can relieve hangovers and headaches. Eating potatoes after drunkenness is better than eating bananas because potatoes contain more potassium.
