For women, we offer glutinous rice lotus root. Everyone should be familiar with this dish, which is to pour glutinous rice in the middle of the lotus root hole and steam it. Glutinous rice lotus root can clear heart, cool blood and nourish spleen and stomach. Lotus root is a frequent visitor on people's table. In Song Dynasty, Chen Da's Su praised the lotus root as "seven orifices of deficiency in the middle", which was not only refreshing, but also impressive. In fact, lotus root is not only delicious and refreshing, but also very nutritious. Li Shizhen called lotus root the spirit root in Compendium of Materia Medica, which can be eaten raw or cooked. But different ways of eating have different effects. Raw lotus root can clear away heat and moisten lung, cool blood and dissipate blood stasis. Cooked lotus root can stimulate appetite, strengthen spleen, promote granulation and stop diarrhea. It is a natural tonic for all ages. Generally speaking, it is forbidden to eat cold food for one or two months after delivery, because the mother loses too much blood after delivery. If she eats some cold or raw food, it will hinder the recovery of qi and blood, and it is not conducive to discharging lochia and removing congestion. However, although lotus root is a cold food, it can remove blood stasis, so pregnant women can eat lotus root. Lotus root also has the function of clearing lung-heat and relieving cough, and patients with pulmonary tuberculosis should eat more lotus root. There are many ways to eat lotus root, but juicing is the best. Take a fresh lotus root, remove the lotus root nodes, wash and mash it, then put it in a juicer to make juice, put it in a refrigerator, take it out when taking it, and drink it at room temperature. The reason why the lotus root knot is removed is that although it is similar to lotus root in nature and taste, it pays more attention to hemostasis. Therefore, women with metrorrhagia and nosebleed can drink lotus root juice, and the effect is good. Lotus root also has a good hangover effect. In Jin Ping Mei, there is a description of Ximen Qing using lotus root to relieve alcoholism. He peeled off the skin of the lotus root first, then soaked it in a vinegar jar, shook it every two days, and took it out in a few days. Ximen Qing likes drinking. Every time he drinks, he will eat lotus root soaked in vinegar to relieve hangover. He also recommended this method to his fair-weather friends. This method takes a long time to make. In daily life, if you are drunk, there is a simpler way, that is, don't peel the lotus root first, squeeze it into juice, mix it with boiling water at the ratio of 1: 1 and drink it in two small cups. Drinking too much wine will hurt your health, and friends who are often drunk are worth a try. Lotus root also contains a lot of crude fiber, which can accelerate gastrointestinal peristalsis in the body and play a role in defecation. People who are often constipated should also eat more lotus roots. Nowadays, it is more common for children to have a strong heart because of heavy schoolwork and excessive study pressure. You can drink some lotus plumule watermelon juice. Grind the plumula Nelumbinis, put the watermelon gourd ladle into a juicer to squeeze watermelon juice, and then mix the plumula Nelumbinis and watermelon juice according to the ratio of 1: 10. Lotus seed heart watermelon juice has the effects of clearing away summer heat, clearing away heat and calming the nerves. Lotus plumule is the blue-green germ in the middle of lotus meat. Although the taste is extremely bitter, it has excellent effects of lowering blood pressure, removing fat and clearing heart fire. According to historical records, every time Emperor Qianlong went to the summer resort, he always drank several cups of lotus plumule tea soaked in dew on the lotus leaf to clear fire and nourish his heart. Lotus seeds are most commonly used by the elderly. Lotus seed is also called lotus root. Compendium of Materia Medica holds that lotus seed is the fruit of spleen because it likes the fragrance and taste of crops. Chinese medicine often says that the spleen and stomach of the human body are the foundation of the day after tomorrow, but with the growth of age, the spleen and stomach will gradually weaken, and lotus seeds nourish the spleen and stomach, so lotus seeds are the best.
