1, healthy eating
It is very important for men, women and children, with good temper, to develop the habit of eating nutritious breakfast. Chinese medicine points out that the spleen is the foundation of the day after tomorrow, and once it is out of balance, it will affect health. Only by eating breakfast, chewing slowly and walking frequently can you improve your temper, especially the soup of red dates and fungus, which can not only "nourish your face" but also "nourish your spleen".
Wu Mingzhu, a female Chinese medicine practitioner, pointed out in her new book "Activating Spleen and Nourishing Beauty" that eating well in the morning, eating full at noon and eating less at night is a very correct concept of healthy eating. Because when you get up in the morning, you have to move your internal organs, and you have to rely on the spleen to transport Shui Gu's subtle transformation and generate qi and blood. At this time, if you eat a healthy and nutritious breakfast, the spleen can transport qi and blood.
Choose cooked food for breakfast, not cold drinks.
Especially between 9:00- 1 1:00 in the morning, it is the most vigorous time of qi and blood in the spleen, which requires a lot of nutrients to transport. So, remember to have breakfast and finish it before 9: 00 in the morning, so that the spleen can play its greatest role and replenish energy to every organ of the body.
In addition, the most important thing is to eat a good breakfast and have a balanced nutrition. It is best to contain five nutrients, including cereals, protein, vegetables, fruits and meat. And pay special attention to eating hot food. Never get up early in the morning, just drink 1 large glass of iced milk, or soy milk with coffee, otherwise it will easily drown all the exuberance of the spleen.
Wu Mingzhu, a Chinese medicine doctor, stressed that forming the habit of eating breakfast can cultivate a good temper. Moreover, it can concentrate more and improve efficiency, and both study and work can get twice the result with half the effort; In addition, eating breakfast won't make you fat, but you can keep your weight, because the spleen has the strongest function at this time, most nutrients are absorbed, and the remaining fat and cholesterol can also be excreted.
In addition, the habit of chewing slowly has many benefits. Besides strengthening the spleen, you can also lose weight. If you eat like a wolf, you often find yourself full after eating, and your stomach is too uncomfortable. At this time, your stomach is swollen and your spleen is damaged. Of course, you will get fat. Therefore, the good habit of chewing slowly as soon as possible can nourish the spleen and body.
2, healthy eating taboos
Don't eat too much fat. Generally speaking, women should control their total calorie intake, reduce their fat intake and eat less fried food to prevent overweight and obesity. The standard of fat intake should be 20% ~ 25% of total heat energy, but at present, many women have exceeded 30%. Excessive fat intake will easily lead to an increase in lipid peroxide, reduce exercise endurance and affect work efficiency.
Don't reduce vitamins. Vitamins themselves do not produce heat energy, but they are important components for maintaining physiological functions, especially vitamins related to brain and nerve metabolism, such as vitamin B 1 and vitamin B6. Brown rice, whole wheat and alfalfa are rich in these vitamins, so the food in the daily diet should not be too refined. In addition, antioxidant nutrients such as beta carotene, vitamin C and vitamin E are beneficial to improve work efficiency, especially for all kinds of fresh vegetables and fruits. Due to the busy work of modern women, vitamin nutrition in diet is often neglected, so some vitamin supplements should be used to ensure the balanced level of vitamins.
The supply of minerals cannot be ignored. During the menstrual period, women will lose iron, calcium, zinc and other minerals with the loss of red blood cells. Therefore, women should consume more calcium, magnesium, zinc and iron during and after menstruation to improve the efficiency of mental work and drink more milk, soy milk or soy milk.
Don't neglect the supply of amino acids. Many modern women are mental workers, so the supply of amino acids for nourishing brain nerves should be sufficient. The content of free amino acids in brain tissue is the highest, followed by taurine and aspartic acid. Beans, sesame seeds, etc. They are rich in glutamic acid and aspartic acid, so eat more appropriately.
