Diet is mainly tonic, and dinner is mainly spleen-invigorating and dampness-removing food. Adzuki bean can not only nourish the heart and blood, but also has obvious effects of diuresis, detumescence and spleen and stomach. In particular, modern people have great mental stress, lack of spirit, improper diet, little exercise, spleen deficiency and dampness. To eliminate dampness, nourish the heart and strengthen the spleen and stomach, adzuki bean is undoubtedly a better choice. The specific method is to soak adzuki beans in warm water for 2~3 hours and cook them with japonica rice to make their effective components fully absorbed by the human body.
At present, the heat and humidity in summer have the greatest impact on human body. When summer-heat and dampness invade the human body, it will lead to pore opening, hyperhidrosis, qi deficiency, spleen-stomach dysfunction and indigestion. Bitter gourd tastes bitter and cold. Eating at ordinary times can clear the heart and improve eyesight, quench thirst and relieve fatigue. Cut bitter gourd into small slices and blanch until it changes color and drains water; Beat the eggs well, add salt, pepper and cooking wine, stir well, put them in the oil pan, and then add bitter gourd slices to stir fry. Although bitter gourd has many advantages, it is not suitable for pregnant women and preschool children to eat it often because of deficiency and cold of the spleen and stomach, and it is still easy to hurt the spleen and stomach in loose stool at ordinary times. In addition, excessive consumption can easily lead to dysmenorrhea in women.
Bean vegetables can strengthen the spleen and promote diuresis, and the contents of protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and inorganic salts are higher than other vegetables. B vitamins are the most in beans, higher than cereals. Rich in inorganic salts such as calcium, phosphorus, iron and potassium, it is a rare food with high potassium, high magnesium and low sodium in diet. Because sweating in hot weather will lose some B vitamins and inorganic salts, peas are very suitable for eating at this time. Chinese medicine believes that peas are sweet in taste, flat in nature, enter the spleen and stomach meridians, and have the effects of invigorating qi, stopping diarrhea, facilitating urination, eliminating carbuncle and swelling, and detoxifying. Usually, peas can be soaked in light salt water. When the frying pan oil is 30% hot, put the shrimps into the frying pan, add the peppers and peas, then add the cooking wine, salt and chicken essence, and finally thicken the frying pan with wet starch.
In addition, you can also eat more vinegar appropriately. On the one hand, because vinegar contains the fragrance of amino ether and organic acid, it can stimulate the appetite management center of the brain, stimulate appetite, promote the secretion of digestive juice, increase the concentration of gastric acid and help the digestion and absorption of food; On the other hand, people are often infected with germs because of poor diet at this time, and vinegar has good antibacterial and bactericidal ability.
