What are the ancient books on health preservation in China?
At present, many books about health preservation belong to Huangdi Neijing, which describes in detail the different reactions of various organs of the human body and eight strange meridians in different periods and the corresponding maintenance suggestions. It is a very classic health book.

In addition, there are many health-preserving recipes in the novel A Dream of Red Mansions in the Qing Dynasty, which are familiar to everyone.

For example, tofu skin steamed stuffed bun is a steamed stuffed bun made of tofu skin, fungus, mushrooms and vegetables. In the Qing dynasty, it was used as a tribute to the emperor for a long time. In the eighth episode of A Dream of Red Mansions, there is a scene in which Baoyu is reluctant to eat, but he has to leave it to Qingwen.

Tofu skin steamed stuffed bun is also called "longevity bag". Among them, auricularia auricula and tofu have the function of lowering blood fat, especially tofu skin, which contains a lot of phytoestrogens and has the function of delaying aging and beautifying. For patients with "three highs", steamed stuffed bun with bean curd skin is a very good healthy dish.

For example, in the first 16 of A Dream of Red Mansions, Jia Lian and Feng invited Zhao DOG, a wet nurse, to dinner. Feng was afraid of the old man's bad mouth, so he specially gave her a bowl of ham elbow stewed since morning.

Eating elbows has the function of nourishing bones and muscles. The elbow stew is particularly rotten, and the saturated fatty acids in it will partially become unsaturated fatty acids, which are easy to digest and suitable for the elderly. Besides, old people. The most important thing for the elderly to eat is the following words: rotten, because they are not good at chewing, chewing and digesting, and rotten is more conducive to absorption; Miscellaneous, eat at least 14 kinds of food a day, including steamed buns and jiaozi, stuffed with meat, eggs, mushrooms, Chinese cabbage and tofu. The best seasonings are vinegar, garlic and ginger. Fresh, the elderly should eat less frozen food and leftovers; Lighter, the elderly with hypertension over 60 years old should not exceed 3 grams of salt per day, and the obese and the elderly with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases should not exceed 20 grams of oil per day.

The above are representative contents.

Of course, some contents such as Compendium of Materia Medica and Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica are pharmacological contents used for health care today. However, due to the broad content, the general medical staff have little reference.

As a national nutritionist, I suggest to you that the way of keeping in good health in classic books is good. But I still hope that when you adopt, you should think more about whether it suits you, because only the right one is the best. Please don't make up for it blindly, lest it lead to the opposite result. Reasonable health care can achieve your original purpose. Thank you. .
