Traditional Chinese medicine believes that chicken has the effects of warming the middle warmer, benefiting qi, benefiting the five internal organs and tonifying deficiency, which can relieve fatigue caused by physical weakness and regulate human immunity. From the point of view of nutrition, although chicken, beef and mutton are all rich ingredients in protein, they have the effect of strengthening the body; But in contrast, chicken contains more kinds of amino acids in protein, which is more easily absorbed and utilized by human body.

2. Yangyang leek to dispel cold
Reason for being on the list: China pays attention to "nourishing yang in spring and summer, nourishing yin in autumn and winter". In spring, the yang is rising, so you should eat more foods that warm and tonify the yang. Especially in early spring, when it is still cold, it is best to eat more leeks, parsley, onions, ginger and garlic. These vegetables are warm, which can not only dispel cold, but also sterilize and inhibit bacteria.
Among them, leek is called "the first dish in spring", and in Southern Qi and Zhou Dynasties, "leek is fermented in early spring and late autumn", which means that leek in early spring is the best. There is also a folk saying that leeks are fragrant in spring and smelly in summer. Leek is warm and helps to maintain human yang. Eating often in spring can also benefit the spleen and stomach. The unique spicy taste of leek is formed by its sulfide, which has certain bactericidal and anti-inflammatory effects and helps to regulate immunity.
Although coriander and Toona sinensis are also warm foods, they belong to "hair" and are easy to cause the recurrence of chronic diseases. Therefore, patients with chronic diseases are advised not to eat more.

Fried pork with leek and scrambled eggs are also good. It should be noted that sulfide will volatilize when it meets heat capacity, so leek needs to be fried quickly to maintain its nutrition and flavor. Although leek is good, it contains more dietary fiber and is not easy to digest, so don't eat too much at a time, and it is best to control it below100g.
3. Sweet potato promotes digestion

Therefore, eating some alkaline foods can alleviate the "spring sleep". Sweet potato is alkaline, which can neutralize acidity and ensure human health.
In addition, sweet potato can keep the elasticity of arterial wall and prevent cardiovascular fat deposition. The cellulose it contains can also prevent and relieve constipation.
Recommended practice: It is a good practice to cook sweet potatoes, but it is best to supplement them in a milder way in spring. So drinking porridge is a good choice.
