Eat ginger tonic soup early.
Speaking of the homology of medicine and food, there is one thing that cannot be ignored, and that is ginger. Ginger is really a treasure given to mankind by God. China people whose kitchen is short of ginger? In traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, ginger is used as a medicine for monarch, minister and assistant.
Confucius said that "ginger food will not be withdrawn", which is a famous saying. You can't live without ginger for a day at home.
At home, no matter young or old, whoever caught a cold or caught a cold immediately served a bowl of ginger soup. Sweat a little and you'll get over your cold.
My stomach is cold and I can't eat. Just drink ginger jujube tea for two days to warm your stomach.
Everyone knows a lot about the benefits of ginger, so I won't say much. Just to emphasize, if you eat ginger for daily health care, you must eat it at breakfast. The so-called "eat ginger early, tonic soup" is also true.
Eating ginger in the morning has the best health care effect. The reason is that Jiang is best at promoting Yang Yang. Morning is the time when qi and blood flow into Yangming stomach meridian. Eating ginger at this time just produces stomach gas and promotes digestion. Moreover, ginger is pungent and warm, which can speed up blood flow and have a refreshing effect.
How to eat? It is best to prepare a plate of ginger for breakfast and eat it with millet porridge. The soaked ginger tastes crisp and tender, with a little sour, spicy and sweet taste at the entrance, and the fragrance of porridge. It is ingeniously blended together, simple and refreshing, and delicate in taste, but it is the best in the world. This is the most nourishing diet, and the effect is far better than tonic soup.
Eating ginger in the afternoon will make you sick.
Many people know not to eat ginger at night. In fact, ginger should not be eaten not only at night, but also after noon.
Don't eat ginger after noon, or you will easily hurt your lungs.
China people keep healthy and pay special attention to adapting to the weather. The yang in nature reaches its peak at noon. Prosperity will decline, Yin Qi will start to rise in the afternoon, and Yang Qi will start to converge. Ginger gives birth to yang, so it is naturally inappropriate to eat it in the afternoon.
At noon, the blood in the heart meridian is the most abundant. Eating ginger at this time is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire for angry people. The heart will burn brighter. The city gate caught fire, which affected the fish in the pool. Our lungs are the fish in this pond. If the heart fire is too strong and the lungs are injured, there will be various symptoms such as cough, asthma and phlegm heat.
Eating ginger in the afternoon will make you sick. People with yin deficiency and fire flourishing constitution should remember.
I ate ginger at night and died.
Eat ginger tonic soup early. Eating ginger in the afternoon will make you sick. Eat ginger to death at night.
Recently, a similar folk proverb circulated on the Internet, saying, "Eating ginger in the morning is equal to tonic soup, and eating ginger at night is equal to eating arsenic." Many people are scared after hearing the word "arsenic" and ask why. After reading some articles on the Internet, the truth is correct. Unfortunately, I only know one, but I don't know the other, and I can't explain why "it's like eating arsenic". Some people simply change this proverb to eat ginger at night, which is harmful to health. That was the rape of the ancients.
Why can't I eat ginger at night? Ginger is the soul of the sun. At night, the human body should nourish yin and suppress yang. Eating ginger is counterproductive and goes against the sky. Eating ginger at this time has several major hazards:
First, people are excited and can't sleep well.
Second, stimulate nerves and affect heart function.
Third, internal fire stagnation consumes lung yin and hurts kidney water.
This alone is not enough to show that eating ginger late is as harmful as arsenic. The key reason is that people usually drink at night, and if they drink with ginger, it will be very harmful!
Eat ginger and wine together, and your heart will rot for a hundred days Ginger wine is a very spicy thing. Ginger enters meridians with wine, and wine enters viscera with ginger. Drinking ginger at night is equivalent to eating chronic poison. In the civil construction case, there is a story of ginger wine rotting the lungs for a hundred days. In fact, eating ginger with wine is not only harmful to the lungs. Over time, the internal organs will be injured. After all, alcohol still harms people. It is better to give up drinking and keep fit than to eat ginger in the morning. Eating ginger at night is equivalent to eating arsenic. This is a metaphor to describe the great harm!
Ginger, containing volatile oil, can accelerate blood circulation; At the same time, it contains gingerol, which has the functions of stimulating gastric juice secretion, exciting intestines and promoting digestion; Ginger also contains gingerol, which can reduce the occurrence of gallstones. Therefore, there are advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, people have left a saying that "go to bed to eat radishes and get out of bed to eat ginger", which shows that ginger can be eaten, but not much. Especially in autumn, it is best not to eat it, because the climate in autumn is dry and dry, which hurts the lungs. In addition, eating spicy ginger is more likely to hurt the lungs and aggravate the dehydration and dryness of the human body. In ancient medical books, there is also such a "warning": "Don't eat ginger in autumn within one year; One day, I don't eat ginger at night. "It seems reasonable not to eat or eat less spicy food such as ginger in autumn, which has long attracted the attention of the ancients.
"Eating ginger at night is like eating a box", why? The ancients said, "It is better to eat ginseng chicken soup than ginger in the morning;" Eating ginger at night is equivalent to eating arsenic (eating ginger in the morning is beneficial and eating ginger at night is harmful). " Ginger is pungent and warm, containing volatile oil, gingerol, resin and starch. Ginger can enhance and accelerate blood circulation, stimulate gastric juice secretion, excite the stomach, promote digestion and resist bacteria.
"Use radish to sleep and ginger to get up, and don't bother the doctor to prescribe medicine." This folk proverb means to eat ginger in the morning and radish in the evening, which is good for your health.
Why do ginger and radish eat at different times of the day? This is determined by their nature.
Ginger is pungent and warm. When people are in the morning, the gas in their stomachs needs to rise. Eating ginger can strengthen the spleen and warm the stomach, and promote the rise of yang. At night, the qi of the human body should be the excess of yang and yin, so eating ginger is against the physiological law. Contrary to ginger, radish is cool, which can clear away heat and reduce fire, promote qi and promote digestion, eat radish after a hard day, moisten throat and promote digestion, and clear the heat of deficiency and dryness, which is conducive to rest. Because ginger is a loose food, it is not easy to digest, and it is even more unbearable to eat at night. The secretion of gastric juice at night is not very good, which is not conducive to digesting ginger and is very bad for endocrine, so it is not good to eat ginger at night.
