The beginning of autumn diet
1. Eat more acidic food.
Eat more acidic foods, such as apples, pomegranates, grapes, mangoes, cherries, grapefruit, lemons, hawthorn, tomatoes and water chestnuts. Such as apples, oranges, hawthorn, kiwifruit and so on. , can converge lung qi.
The weather is still hot in early autumn, the air is humid and sultry, and the fruits and vegetables are ripe in autumn, so it is difficult to protect people from overeating and damage the spleen and stomach. Therefore, eating more porridge in autumn morning can not only strengthen the spleen and nourish the stomach, but also bring a refreshing day. We often eat porridge in autumn: hawthorn rice porridge, pear rice porridge, rabbit rice porridge, white radish rice porridge, almond rice porridge, orange peel rice porridge, persimmon rice porridge and so on.
2. Don't eat or eat less spicy barbecue food
In the dry season in autumn, we should also pay attention not to eat or eat less spicy barbecue food, such as pepper, pepper, cinnamon, ginger, onion, wine and so on. These ingredients are hot and lose a lot of water during cooking, so they are easy to get angry after eating.
Eat more fish
Autumn is the season that needs tonic, but many people are afraid that a lot of tonic will lead to obesity. They might as well eat some fish. The fat content of fish is very low, and the fatty acids in it have been proved to have the effects of lowering blood sugar, protecting the heart and preventing cancer.
Don't eat too much high-protein food, such as meat, for the time being.
After a hot summer, after beginning of autumn, many people who are "bitter in summer" or have a bad appetite in summer have gradually improved their appetite. But at this time, people's gastrointestinal function is weak and has not been adjusted. If you eat too much high-protein food such as meat, it will increase the burden on your stomach and affect your stomach function. So eat meat in moderation, and it is best to wait until it is really cold before adding more meat.
5. Eat more foods that nourish yin and moisten dryness.
Autumn breath should be in the lungs. Lung is an important respiratory organ of human body and the source of qi, and the rise and fall of lung qi is related to the length of life. The dry climate in autumn is easy to hurt lung yin and make people suffer from respiratory diseases such as dry nose, sore throat, cough and chest pain, so pay attention to nourishing the lungs in diet. Eat foods that nourish yin and moisten dryness, such as tremella, sugar cane, bird's nest, pear, sesame, lotus root, spinach, black-bone chicken, pig lung, soybean milk, caramel, duck eggs, honey, black-bone fish and olives. Eat more sesame seeds, walnuts, glutinous rice, honey, sugar cane, etc.
