Winter diet principle
In winter, the climate is cold, with yin flourishing and yang declining. Under the influence of cold temperature, the physiological function and appetite of human body will change. Therefore, it is very necessary to adjust the diet reasonably, ensure the sufficiency of essential nutrients, improve the cold tolerance and immune function of the elderly, and make them spend the winter safely and smoothly.
First of all, we must ensure the supply of heat energy. The cold climate in winter affects the endocrine system of human body, which increases the secretion of thyroxine and adrenaline, thus promoting and accelerating the decomposition of protein, fat and carbohydrate, increasing the body's cold-proof ability, thus causing excessive loss of heat. Therefore, nutrition in winter should be based on increasing heat energy, and foods rich in carbohydrates and fats can be properly ingested. For the elderly, the intake of fat should not be too much, so as not to induce other diseases of the elderly, but enough protein should be taken, because the decomposition of protein is enhanced, and the human body is prone to negative nitrogen balance. The supply of protein should be 15 ~ 17% of the total calories, and the supply of protein should be mainly high-quality protein, such as lean meat, eggs, fish, milk, beans and their products. Protein contained in these foods is not only easy for human body to digest and absorb, but also rich in essential amino acids with high nutritional value, which can increase human body's cold resistance and disease resistance.
Winter is the off-season of vegetables, and the number of vegetables is small and the varieties are monotonous, especially in northern China. Therefore, often after a winter, the human body appears vitamin deficiency, such as vitamin C deficiency, which causes many elderly people to have symptoms such as oral ulcer, swelling and pain of root, bleeding and constipation. Its prevention and control method should first expand the food source, and the green leafy vegetables are relatively reduced in winter, so you can eat some potatoes, such as sweet potatoes and potatoes. Are rich in vitamin C and vitamin B, especially lack of vitamin A, and red sweet potatoes also contain more carotene. Eating more potatoes can not only supplement vitamins, but also clear away heat and eliminate plague. In addition to Chinese cabbage, cabbage, radish heart, white radish, carrot, bean sprouts, mung bean sprouts, rape and so on. It should also be selected in the main course listed in winter. These vegetables are rich in vitamins. As long as the varieties are changed frequently and matched reasonably, the vitamin demand of the human body can still be supplemented. The cold in winter will also affect the nutritional metabolism of the human body and increase the consumption of various nutrients to varying degrees. Due to the influence of digestion, absorption and metabolism in the body, the elderly often lack potassium, calcium, sodium, iron and other elements. In addition, the inorganic salts discharged with urine in winter increase, which should be supplemented in time. You can eat more foods rich in calcium, iron, sodium and potassium, such as shrimp, shrimp skin, sesame paste, pork liver and bananas. If there is low sodium, it tastes slightly salty when cooking, so it can be supplemented.

Tonifying in winter is one of the traditional self-care methods to prevent diseases, strengthen the body and help the weak.
Winter is a cold season. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that winter tonic is closely related to balancing yin and yang, dredging meridians and harmonizing qi and blood. Due to the decline of physical function and low resistance, it is more appropriate for the elderly to take supplements in cold seasons. This can improve the nutritional status, enhance the immune function of the body, promote the recovery of the sick body and so on, showing the irreplaceable role of drugs.
Tonifying in winter should conform to nature, pay attention to nourishing yang and give priority to nourishing. According to the principle of "deficiency is tonic, cold is warm" in traditional Chinese medicine, we should eat more warm food, especially warm and kidney-yang food, in order to improve the cold tolerance of the body. In winter, "food supplement" should provide food rich in protein, vitamins and easy to digest. Optional food: cereals such as japonica rice, indica rice, corn, wheat, soybeans and peas; Leek, coriander, garlic, radish, day lily and other vegetables; Mutton, dog meat, beef, chicken, eel, carp, silver carp, hairtail, shrimp and other meats; Oranges, coconuts, pineapples, lychees, longan and other fruits. Dog meat and mutton are the best tonic for the elderly in winter. Old people take 1 small glass of ginseng wine or astragalus wine every morning, which can prevent cold and promote blood circulation. Older people with weak physique often eat stewed chicken, lean meat and tendons in winter, and often drink milk and soybean milk, which can enhance their physique. Cutting beef into small pieces, adding yellow wine, onion and ginger, stewing in casserole, eating meat and drinking soup have the effects of invigorating qi, quenching thirst, strengthening tendons and bones and nourishing spleen and stomach. Old people who are deficient in Yang Can boil mutton and radish together, then remove the radish (that is, remove the fishy smell of mutton), add Cistanche deserticola 15g, Morinda officinalis 15g and Lycium barbarum 15g, and eat mutton and soup together, which has the function of strengthening yang and warming the body. Modern medicine believes that winter tonic can improve human immune function, promote metabolism and improve the phenomenon of chills. Tonifying in winter can also regulate the metabolism of substances in the body, so that the energy converted from nutrients can be stored in the body to the maximum extent, which is helpful to the rise of yang in the body and lays a good foundation for health in the coming year. As the saying goes, "September makes up for a winter, and the next year is disease-free", which is the truth.
