The effect of almond tea on moistening lung and relieving cough is well known. Chinese medicine believes that the lung governs fur and moistens the lung to make the skin moist and bright; Because "the lungs and large intestine are from the outside to the inside", almonds moisten the lungs and large intestine and help to treat constipation. Therefore, drinking almond tea can relieve various "autumn dryness" symptoms such as dry skin and constipation, which is especially suitable for women to drink.

Almonds taste bitter, called bitter almonds or northern apricots, and are often used for treatment; One is sweet, called sweet apricot or south apricot, which is specially eaten. Only South Star made in China has laxative effect. Daily dietotherapy such as moistening lung and beautifying face, mainly apricot; If it is used to treat cough with excessive phlegm, it is mainly apricot.

The method of making health almond tea is very simple. Ten grams of southern almonds and a little of northern almonds can be washed and mashed, put into a small teapot with a filter, and soaked in boiling water for 20 minutes before drinking. After drinking for two or three weeks, it will have obvious effects of moistening the lungs, beautifying the muscles and relaxing the bowels.

In addition, Sydney Nanxing lean broth is also a healthy and delicious lung-nourishing soup. Peel a fresh Sydney and cook it with almonds and lean pork for 2 hours. It can moisten lung, promote fluid production, eliminate phlegm, relieve cough and moisten dryness.

Almond is also a beauty medicine.

Almond is sweet and bitter. Sweet almonds are mostly used to moisten the heart and lungs, and can treat deficiency cough, asthma, intestinal dryness and constipation. Bitter almond is mostly used for relieving cough and asthma, moistening intestines and relaxing bowels. Almond will produce trace hydrocyanic acid after taking it, which can inhibit the respiratory center, make the respiratory movement tend to be calm, and achieve the purpose of relieving cough and asthma. Especially bitter almond, should not be used excessively, otherwise it may cause poisoning. If soaked for 3-4 days, then boiled thoroughly with hot water, the toxicity can be volatilized. Modern research shows that almonds can also help treat cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and have anti-cancer effects. In addition, almonds are recognized as important cosmetic drugs in ancient and modern times.

In the famous secret recipe of the court, "Lu Fu Forbidden Fang", there is a record of "Yang Taizhen's Ruby Cream", which is the imperial concubine Yang Yuhuan in the Tang Dynasty; The Book of Old Tang Dynasty called her "peerless beauty", and The Song of Eternal Sorrow said that she was "refined in appearance, sensitive to her questions, and everything changed with grace, with China as the top priority". The charm of Yang Guifei is that she is good at decorating and maintaining beauty. Ruby cream is one of the secret recipes she uses to "add color". This prescription takes almonds as the main medicine. When making, peel almond, take talc and calomel in equal parts, grind into powder, swallow, add a little borneol and musk, mix with egg white, and apply after washing your face in the morning and evening. It is said that it has the effect of "making the face rosy and shiny, and the color is like ruby after ten days". Modern science has proved that sweet almond is rich in vitamins and minerals such as vitamin A, and it is an ideal material for making facial mask. It is worth noting that Calomel in this prescription can moisturize the skin, remove dirt and treat scabies, but it is highly toxic and must not be prepared without authorization.

Autumn skin care: the perfect combination of almond powder and tomato whitening spots.

After intense ultraviolet radiation in summer, the skin is damaged too much, and autumn is a good season for recuperation and whitening. Many glamour powders say that they don't have much money and can't afford high-end skin care products. I hope I can introduce some DIY whitening methods. Here is a whitening method of almond and tomato, which is simple and affordable and recommended to everyone.

After almond is ground into powder, it can help to remove the aged cells and excess horniness of the skin, and can also be used to make drinks and masks, which have a good preventive and therapeutic effect on facial acne, rough skin, pigmentation and facial wrinkles. In addition, almond is rich in vitamin E, which can effectively delay skin aging and make skin clean, bright, shiny and elastic. Regular consumption and external application are of great benefit to increase skin elasticity and moisturize luster. Tomatoes are rich in vitamin C, which can whiten and remove acne.

Almond powder+tomato = an excellent combination of whitening and light spots.

Materials:

American almond 50g

1 tomato

Happy baby simple mixer

Dried fruit grinding cup

Mask paper

step

The first step is material selection.

1, almond selection: There are two kinds of almonds sold in the market: American almonds and China almonds. You should choose bagged American almond (baked with salt) 300g5 1.6 yuan. Take it home, put it in a sealed can and carry it with you. California, USA is the most important almond producing area in the world. The natural environment here is most suitable for almond growth, with large, full and sweet grains, but the price is more than twice as expensive as that of China almonds. The almonds sold in the market are all natural, and after pasteurization, they are added with salt, which does not affect their nutritional value.

2, tomato selection: directly choose the packaged red tomatoes in the supermarket, medium size, 1.5 yuan can buy two. The main nutrition in tomatoes is vitamins, among which lycopene in carotene is the most important and rich. Generally speaking, the redder the tomato color, the higher the lycopene content, while the lycopene content of immature and semi-mature cyan tomatoes is relatively low. There is also a pink tomato on the market, the content of lycopene is not as high as that of red tomato.

Step 2: Put almonds into a sealed jar, put about 50g into a mask cup, and peel the almonds. In fact, it is not necessarily 50g, but it can be halved, because tomato juice is not always used up. If you don't want to waste it, you can eat it first or reduce it before making it.

Step 3: Select the blender dried fruit grinding cup, put peeled almonds into the cup, grind them into powder by machine, and pour them into the mask cup.

Step 4: Take 1 tomato, cut it into small pieces without peeling.

Step 5: Choose a blender and a juicing cup, put the cut tomato pieces into the juicing cup and break them.

Step 6: Pour the mashed tomato juice into the mask cup and mix it with almond powder, then seal it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for 20 minutes. The refrigerated mask has a better effect, and it has a calming and cooling effect when attached to the face.

Step 7: After 20 minutes, take out the mask cup, and then put 1 piece of mask paper into the cup to let the mask paper fully absorb the juice.

Step 8: To prevent clothes from getting dirty, it is best to put a towel around your neck, take out the soaked mask paper, stick it on your face, gently press it,/kloc-take it off after 0/5 ~ 20 minutes, and clean it with clear water. You can also apply it directly to your face without mask paper, but it is not easy to be absorbed directly and will drip down, which is not very elegant.

Step 9: Take toner and take care of your skin normally.
