After beginning of spring, there will often be a period of cold and hot, so be careful of the intrusion of "cold in spring", especially for people who are weak, catching a cold and having a fever is a common occurrence. According to the expert, if you want to sterilize and prevent cold, you can increase the number of times you eat "flavored" foods such as garlic, onions and celery, which is of great benefit to prevent respiratory infections such as typhoid fever and colds in spring.
Chinese medicine believes that onions, ginger, garlic and celery can not only dispel wind and cold, but also sterilize and prevent diseases. Garlic contains volatile capsaicin, which can eliminate the fat accumulated in blood vessels. Onion contains prostaglandin, which has the functions of relaxing blood vessels, lowering blood pressure and promoting thrombolysis. Celery contains volatile oil, mannitol and so on. It has the effects of lowering blood pressure, calming, invigorating stomach and diuresis. However, children may have some resistance to this kind of food. At this time, celery and Jiang Mo can be used as dumpling stuffing, and fried rice can also use chopped onions. In addition, heat onions, garlic, celery, etc. The smell can be reduced after a long time, but the longer the cooking time, the less healthy substances in the smell remain.
After beginning of spring, the weather is still relatively dry. Drinking scented tea helps to dispel the cold evil accumulated in the human body in winter. Because each flower has its own characteristics, taste and efficacy, if used properly, herbal tea does have a certain health care function, but it needs to be adjusted according to its own physique, and excessive drinking will also cause physical discomfort. Warm edible flowers mainly include plum blossom, jasmine, rose, Chinese rose and saffron. Cold edible flowers mainly include Prunella vulgaris, honeysuckle, chrysanthemum, Sophora japonica and so on. The flowers with flat sex mainly include Albizia Albizia, Stigma Maydis, Hibiscus, Lavender and so on. In collocation, those flowers and plants with warm medicinal properties should not be compatible with flowers and plants with cold nature.
In addition to the combination of medicinal properties, you should also pay attention to your physical condition when drinking herbal tea. Every kind of herbal tea has a special effect, so when choosing it, on the one hand, you need to distinguish your physical condition. For example, people with heat constitution should choose cold flowers and plants, while those with deficiency constitution should choose warm flowers and plants, and most of them can choose flat flowers and plants. In addition, if you are taking drugs, you should be more careful when choosing herbal tea.
