All my close friends know that I usually make videos, give speeches and even have spare time to write books. My life is very busy, but compared with ordinary office workers from nine to five, my complexion and spirit are not bad, even better than the average person. At first, everyone thought I was eating health food. In fact, I just know how to choose the right food and often drink soup. Our family also uses this regimen. It has been our family's habit for decades to cook suitable soup and drink soup for health in different seasons all year round.
Personally, I have loved soup since I was a child. In junior high school, I often study late because of the pressure of homework. At that time, my mother would stew me lean meat with Japanese ginseng, medlar and red dates every morning. I didn't understand it at that time, but I thought the soup was delicious and I felt much better after drinking it. Later, when I was studying in Chinese medicine, I realized that the function of this soup was to "replenish qi" and "boost the spirit". Up to now, whenever I am busy with work and have a bad spirit, I will stew this "Oriental Ginseng Sliced Soup" and let myself drink it before serving.
Eating correctly makes food the best medicine.
Sun Simiao, an ancient physician, mentioned in his book "A Thousand Daughters' Prescriptions": "The essence of living is food? People who don't know what to eat are not healthy enough. It means that if you don't know whether food is suitable for the body, it will not be enough to achieve the purpose of health preservation, which shows how important diet is to health. This is also my famous saying of keeping in good health.
But what exactly is "dietotherapy"? Simply put, it is also called dietotherapy, which combines traditional medical theory, modern nutrition and cooking technology, uses various foods, makes food after cooking, and then achieves the purpose of preventing and treating diseases through eating.
There are four natures in nature, namely, warmth, heat, cold and coolness, which are generally called "four natures". Food also has four characteristics, that is, temperature, heat, cold and cool, because of the different growth environment and its own characteristics. With different properties, it will have different effects on the body after eating. It is precisely because food is biased that we can use these prejudices to change our physique and relieve discomfort. For example, if you eat too much raw and cold food, your body will get cold; If you eat too much warm food, your body will become hot and dry, which is exactly what happens when your constitution changes.
Suppose your body gets cold, your hands and feet will get cold, and your stomach will hurt; When the body is hot and dry, it will cause dry mouth, constipation, acne and so on. If you don't have a special purpose and don't want your physique to be affected by a partial eclipse of food, you should be very careful in your diet. Don't be partial to food, or just eat your favorite food. It is suggested that everyone eat according to the principles of balance, diversity and diversity, and keep the balance of physique.
I have always liked "a doctor". He should first understand the source of the disease, know what disease he has committed, treat him with food, and then order medicine if he doesn't recover from his diet. In this sentence, before treating a patient, a doctor should understand the causes of physical discomfort, carefully find the source of the disease, know where the problem lies, and first regulate the body with food to relieve the patient's discomfort. If the diet can't solve it, then use drugs to treat it. Hippocrates, the father of western medicine, once said, "Your food is your medicine. It can be seen from this famous saying that dietotherapy plays a very important role in daily life, whether in the East or the West.
