What are the health foods? 1 1. Duck meat can clear away heat and nourish yin.
People in Hunan and Jiangxi prefer to "lower their heads to eat chickens and ducks" and think that "lowering their heads to eat a chicken will keep them healthy for a year". In dog days, people consume more physical energy and need proper nutrition. In Nanchang, there is a tradition of "eating chickens and eating ducks".
"Compendium of Materia Medica" records that duck meat "mainly tonifies fatigue, clears away heat, facilitates urination, eliminates edema, eliminates fullness, benefits viscera, eliminates sores and detumescence, and stops spasm and epilepsy." Among the four seasons, duck meat is suitable for summer. Eating ducks and drinking duck soup in summer can clear away heat and nourish yin.
In Chinese medicine, ducks eat mostly aquatic food, so their meat tastes sweet and cold, and enters the lung, stomach and kidney meridians, which has the functions of nourishing, nourishing stomach, tonifying kidney, removing tuberculosis, steaming bones, eliminating edema, stopping dysentery, relieving cough and resolving phlegm. Duck meat is suitable for people with fever in the body, and it is more beneficial to people with weak constitution, loss of appetite, fever, dry stool and edema.
2. Noodles are dehumidified to reduce heat.
Northerners, especially the old Beijingers under the roots of the imperial city, pay special attention to eating in dog days-"jiaozi lies on his head, and pancakes spread eggs in dog days". The Chronicle of Jingchu's Age in the Southern Dynasties records that "the soup cake in June is pale, which is called evil". Eating a bowl of hot noodle soup makes you sweat, which can remove moisture and summer heat from your body.
There are many ways to make noodles. We often eat noodle soup, such as tomato and egg noodles and braised beef noodles, which can be eaten with soup. However, noodle soup is generally high in salt, so drink less. Fishing noodles means draining noodles and mixing them with seasonings, such as cold noodles and dregs noodles. Some people like to wash their noodles twice with cold water, which will make some B vitamins and potassium dissolved in water, and the nutrition will be easily lost. Stir-fried noodles, cooked noodles are fried with ingredients, and generally use more oil, so it is not recommended to eat them often; Braised noodles, stir-fry all kinds of ingredients, and then add noodles and water to stew, with less nutritional loss.
Many people often eat more noodles than side dishes, and it is difficult to achieve a balanced nutrition. Therefore, it is suggested that the variety of dishes should be rich, and cucumbers, radishes, spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms and so on should be often added. You can also add some bean products, such as soybean sprouts, cooked soybeans, yuba, shredded tofu, etc.

Everyone in Hangzhou knows that in the old society, the rich wanted "ham, chicken, gold and silver hooves", while the poor who were nervous at hand wanted "melons, eggplants and melons without peeling". In summer, the temperature is high, the human body is prone to sweating, and physical exertion is also great. Have some chicken and hooves? You can replenish your strength and get through this difficult day.
Now, ham, hooves? It has already entered the homes of ordinary people, and winter melon and eggplant have also become popular seasonal vegetables. Poor people eat melons and eggplant earlier in dog days, which is in line with modern summer health science to some extent. Wax gourd is sweet in taste and slightly cold in nature, and has the functions of nourishing the stomach, promoting fluid production, clearing away heat and promoting diuresis. There is eggplant, which tastes ancient and cold, relieves swelling and pain, and clears away heat and toxic materials.
4. Hot tea is cool.
Shanghai has always had the custom of "wonton with tea". In the past, people used hot tea to relieve the heat. Modern science has also proved that drinking hot tea and warm tea can relieve summer heat better than drinking herbal tea. Fu Cha, as its name implies, is the tea that people drink in dog days. Legend has it that it began in the Southern Song Dynasty and flourished in the Qing Dynasty, but the exact date cannot be verified. Generally, it is drunk from the beginning of June to the end of August, which has the effect of cooling and dispelling summer heat. Under the scorching sun, a cup a day can clear away heat and relieve summer heat.
The two major functions of Fu tea are clearing away heat and relieving summer heat, eliminating summer heat and eliminating dampness. Therefore, the formula of Fuzhuan tea should be adjusted according to the different climate every year. The recommended formula of Fu tea is: honeysuckle 10g, bamboo leaves 10g, Prunella vulgaris 15g, lotus leaves 10g, lentils 15g, Pogostemon rugosa 10g and Eupatorium odoratum 65438.

It's best to have a light diet in summer, and don't eat some greasy and high-fat spicy food, which is not easy to digest. Daily life should be based on a light diet. It is suggested to appropriately increase liquid or semi-liquid foods, mainly porridge and soup, and drinking mung bean soup, lotus seed porridge and lotus leaf porridge is more beneficial to health.
In seasoning, it is recommended to eat vinegar in moderation, which can promote appetite and digestion by reading books.

Bitter gourd has the effects of stimulating appetite, promoting digestion, clearing away heat and pathogenic factors, eliminating fatigue, clearing away heart fire and improving eyesight. In addition, bitter foods such as bitter vegetables, tea, coffee, etc. can also be selected as appropriate. It should be noted that eating bitter food should not be excessive, otherwise it may cause nausea, vomiting and other symptoms.
Avoid a lot of cold drinks and iced watermelons.
In order to prevent heatstroke and cool down, many people like to eat and drink many cold dishes, cold food, iced watermelon, iced beer, cold drinks and so on. In hot summer, the human body is actually in a state of external heat and internal cold. If you are greedy and drink too much, it will easily lead to gastrointestinal dysfunction. In addition, many girls like to drink mung bean soup. Although mung bean soup is good, don't drink too much, let alone drink it as water. Especially for girls in menstrual period, it is not advisable to drink mung bean soup, so as not to harm the body and cause dysmenorrhea. Female friends should not do things that harm their health for the sake of temporary greed.
Don't stay in the air-conditioned room for a long time.
Staying in an air-conditioned room for too long will also make you ache all over, listless and lose your appetite. Sometimes nosebleeds are caused by dry nasal cavity, or colds, fever, and even bronchitis, pneumonia and gastroenteritis. At the same time, it must be noted that the indoor temperature shall not be lower than 27℃, and the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor shall not exceed 8℃. Air-conditioned rooms should not be closed for a long time, and should be ventilated frequently.
Avoid going out at noon.
After 10 in the morning and before 4 pm, it is the hottest time in a summer. If you can stay indoors, stay indoors. If you want to walk or work outdoors, you'd better choose a shady place. But even so, you can't stay outdoors for a long time. You should regularly blow an electric fan in a cool room to dissipate heat. It is not advisable to go directly into the air-conditioned room for a cold bath.
Drink more water and have more rest.
In the summer barbecue mode, people will experience the heat, as long as they stay outdoors for a few minutes, they may sweat profusely and quickly lose a lot of water. Therefore, hydration in dog days is also an important part of health care. It is suggested that you take a certain amount of water when you go out, so that you can replenish it at any time when you are thirsty. People who work under air conditioning do not sweat, but it is easy to cause water shortage, so drink water regularly. In addition, sleep quality is also very important. Many women, due to their work or lifestyle, lack proper rules in their daily life, often stay up late and lack sleep, which has a great impact on their health. Therefore, it is suggested that women should develop a regular routine.
