Because they are rich in nutrition and very beneficial to human health, Time magazine in the United States rated nuts as the third largest healthy food.
Nuts are not only nutritious, but also delicious. However, in the first frost season, you should eat nuts in moderation, otherwise it will be harmful to your health. This is because nuts contain very high calories. For example, 50 grams of melon seeds is equivalent to a big bowl of rice.
Therefore, we should not eat too many nuts. Generally, 30 grams a day is more appropriate. If we eat too much at a time, inexhaustible calories will be converted into fat and stored in our bodies, which will lead to obesity.

It was only 90 days from beginning of autumn to the first frost, but the temperature dropped 15-20. In order to keep out the cold, people who pay attention to health will start tonic before and after the first frost.
This practice is widely circulated among the people, and there are countless related folk proverbs, such as "make up the first frost in winter", "make up the first frost in one year" and "make up the tiger in the coming year with the first frost". According to research, protein will release 30%-40% of heat when it enters the human body, while the amount of fat and sugar released is 5%-6% and 4%-5% respectively. This characteristic of protein is called "special thermal effect".
This shows that eating more foods rich in protein can enhance the cold resistance of human body, so protein is the most suitable nutrient in the first frost season. In addition, adequate protein can also improve people's excitement and make people energetic.
According to nutritional analysis, the protein content of meat is pork, duck, beef, chicken, rabbit and mutton. However, when we choose tonic ingredients, we can't just rely on these data, but more importantly, we must rely on our physical condition.

The nutrients contained in it are easily absorbed by the human body, which can maintain vitality, improve human immunity and prevent diseases.
