What food do you eat in the 2022 rain festival?

1, bean sprouts-clearing away heat and fire, enhancing metabolism

Bean seedlings are seedlings when peas grow 2 ~ 4 leaves. They are tender and fragrant, and they are best for making soup. The nutritional value of bean seedlings is roughly the same as that of peas. The young leaves of pea pods and bean sprouts are rich in vitamin C and enzymes that can decompose nitrosamines in the body, which have the function of preventing cancer. The acid, gibberellin, phytohemagglutinin and other substances contained in bean sprouts have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects and enhance metabolism. Bean sprouts are rich in cellulose, which can prevent constipation and clear the intestines. Bean sprouts also contain a lot of calcium, vitamins B, C and carotene.

2, garlic-a powerful bactericidal effect

Eating more onions and garlic in spring is not only beneficial to the needs of hair growth, but also helps the body to resist more external aggression. There are many cold viruses in spring, but garlic contains antibacterial components-alliin and alliinase. Allicin and alliinase exist in the cells of fresh garlic. Once garlic is crushed, they will contact each other, thus forming a colorless oily liquid-allicin. Allicin has a strong bactericidal effect, which can help the human body to be immune to the invasion of external "flora".
