Three must-eat foods for Dragon Boat Festival: 1 and Monopterus albus.
As the saying goes? Dragon Boat Festival Eel Race Ginseng? Of course, eels are indispensable in the Dragon Boat Festival diet. Monopterus albus has a high protein, but a low fat content. Especially in summer, the meat quality of Monopterus albus is fuller, more delicious and has better nourishing effect. Eating more Monopterus albus can enhance our disease resistance, and patients with chronic bronchus, heart disease, hypertension, nephritis and hepatitis can eat it often, which can be said to be a rare food.

2. purplish red
Amaranth is also a good food to supplement calcium. Amaranth contains calcium, which is easily absorbed by human body and is beneficial to the growth of human teeth and bones. In addition, amaranth is rich in vitamin K and iron, which can promote blood coagulation and have a good effect on nourishing blood and enriching blood. Chinese medicine believes that amaranth is cool, has the function of stopping dysentery, can clear away heat and promote diuresis, and promotes detoxification, so it is a good food for health preservation in summer.
