1. Runfei Runzao
Chinese medicine believes that seasons correspond to different human organs, and autumn corresponds to human lungs. Therefore, autumn food supplements should pay attention to the maintenance of the lungs, and selectively eat foods that nourish yin and moisten dryness, such as lily, pear, donkey-hide gelatin, tremella and honey. It can not only moisten the lungs and relieve cough, but also moisten the lungs.
2. Qi and blood
Qi and blood are controlled by the viscera of the human body, so the viscera of the human body will also be damaged due to the lack of qi and blood, which will lead to the decline of human immunity, yellow complexion, insomnia and forgetfulness, and dry painting. Therefore, supplementing qi and blood is also necessary for autumn diet. You can eat more foods that enrich blood and benefit qi, such as red dates, yams, black fungus, longan, peanuts and so on. These foods have the function of enriching blood and invigorating qi. Eating them in autumn is very beneficial to us.
3. Strengthen spleen and nourish stomach
After autumn, the temperature difference between morning and evening is great, and the abdomen is easy to catch cold, causing diarrhea. Therefore, when eating, it should be mainly warm, soft, light, vegetarian and fresh. Such as yam, astragalus, lotus seeds, millet, cowpea, white radish, etc., can strengthen the spleen and nourish the stomach, which is a good food for nourishing the stomach in autumn.
Confucius said, eat from time to time, that is to say, what food to eat in what season. Eat according to the season, and eat the right food every season. Therefore, the diet in autumn should be based on three criteria: moistening lung and dryness, nourishing qi and blood, strengthening spleen and nourishing stomach.
