Blind spot of spring health care

"Spring dominates hair growth", so spring should help qi and blood grow, but there is another feature in spring: "Spring dominates wind", which is easy to take away body fluids, so spring should nourish qi and blood while nourishing yin and moistening dryness.

Liver governs blood, and yin and blood are homologous. While nourishing the liver, we should also pay attention to nourishing yin and moistening dryness. If you don't nourish yin and moisten dryness in time, there will be symptoms such as dry eyes, dry mouth, dry nose, thirst and polydipsia, and dry skin.

Most diabetics have internal heat due to yin deficiency, so if you have a family history of diabetes and it is yin deficiency, the incidence of diabetes will increase.

The first flower in spring: peach blossom

Teacher Wei Yun recommended the first flower in spring-peach blossom, which is edible and can be used as medicine. It has the effects of promoting qi and blood circulation, moistening dryness and promoting fluid production, and can lead the whole body to run qi and blood, which is very suitable for patients with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome (rough skin, three highs, dark spots or senile plaques, pain).

Teacher Wei Yun told us that not all peach blossoms can be used as medicine and eaten. Peach blossoms are commonly used. Teacher Wei Yun recommended peach blossom as a daily health care flower sauce.

The practice of peach blossom sauce

1, freshly picked peach blossoms, try not to wash and dry, to avoid aroma volatilization, and put them in sealed cans. Sealed cans must be disinfected and dried before use.

2. Add some honey and stir with sterilized chopsticks. Stir with chopsticks to squeeze out the water in the petals.

3. Then put it in the refrigerator for three or four days. If you want to eat on the same day, you can quickly stir for a while to let the water seep out quickly.

Reminder: You should wear gloves when picking peach blossoms, because your hands will secrete a lot of sweat, and bacteria can easily run into peach blossoms. Peach blossoms only feed on petals and stamens. Peach blossom core is moist, and peach blossom petals promote blood circulation.

Method for making peach blossom cake

First roll the dough into pancakes, spread the stirred peach blossom sauce evenly on the pancakes, drop a proper amount of olive oil, roll up the pancakes and gently flatten them. Add a small amount of oil to the pot, add peach crisp when the oil is hot, and fry on both sides for about 5- 10 minutes.

Peach blossom sauce can also be used to sandwich biscuits, bread and so on. However, it should be noted that people with thrombocytopenia should not eat it; If you are taking anticoagulant, please do not eat.

Think of the role of adjuvant therapy, you can soak in water with peach blossom sauce, usually 3 grams of peach blossom sauce each time. You can also drink 3 grams of peach blossom water directly, and diabetics can drink peach blossom with reed rhizome, Ophiopogon japonicus and Dendrobium water.

"Tears of Peach": Peach Gum

Have you ever heard of "Tears of Peach"? This is the peach gum on the peach tree.

Teacher Wei Yun introduced that peach gum is mainly used for nourishing yin and clearing away heat, and has the function of promoting qi and blood circulation, especially suitable for patients with yin deficiency and internal heat syndrome.

Peach gum can't be eaten directly from trees. It is best to remove the outermost layer, because there may be bacteria and various insects crawling on it.

Method for make peach gum soup

Soak the peach gum in boiling water for 1-2 hours before use, then put the softened peach gum into a casserole and add red dates to strengthen the functions of nourishing yin and enriching blood; Adding almond to guide menstruation will play a stronger role in hair growth. Cooking together. Taohua decoction has the effects of nourishing yin and moistening dryness, clearing away heat, promoting qi and blood circulation, and dispersing lung qi.

"Fairy flower": Dendrobium flower

There is also a seasonal flower in spring, whose whole grass can be used as medicine, especially its stem is called Cao Xian in Compendium of Materia Medica, which is regarded as the top grade and a good medicine for treating diabetes.

It is a Dendrobium flower, which mainly nourishes yin and moistens dryness. It has the functions of promoting qi circulation, waking up and enlightening, and is suitable for people with yin deficiency.

Drinking tea directly with 3 grams of Dendrobium flowers can have a good refreshing effect. If you want to enhance the effect of nourishing yin and moistening dryness, you can soak 6 grams of Dendrobium flowers in water.

Kumquat sauce

Finally, I recommend Wei Yun's kumquat sauce, which has the effect of moistening lung, relieving cough, resolving phlegm and appetizing. The production method is also very simple.

Method for make kumquat sauce

Wash kumquat, slice it and marinate it in sugar for one hour. Stir-fry slowly with low heat, add a little water until it is thick, squeeze half a lemon juice, add honey and stir, and take out.
