Cold dew is the first solar term with the word "cold", and the weather will transition from cold to cold. "Cold dew, cold dew, Coody Leng is everywhere" to keep warm.

▌ "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic Su Wen": "The five flavors are fashionable, the liver is sour, the lungs are pungent, the heart is bitter, the kidney is salty, and the spleen is sweet."

"Xin enters the lungs", and Xin's drugs and foods are good at entering the lungs and spreading lung qi.

▌ In the Book of Rites, it is said: "Where there is harmony, there is sour spring, bitter summer and salty autumn."

We often say that the five flavors are the five internal organs, and the five internal organs are the five hours. Reasonable intake of five flavors can balance human endocrine.

▌ "Shengji Jing" has a cloud: "Xin, Jin, or San, or Run, then San is Yang, Run is Yin."

What I'm talking about here is the spicy taste of five flavors, which can both disperse and moisten.

Spicy food

For example: ginger

"Within a year, don't eat ginger in autumn; Within a day, don't eat ginger at night, "because the climate in autumn is dry, and dryness hurts the lungs. If you eat spicy ginger, it will aggravate the symptoms of lung dryness.

However, Chen Xiuyuan, a famous doctor in Qing Dynasty, said, "Dried ginger tastes spicy, which makes it taste like Yangming's dry gold. If pungent but not biased, gold can produce water and turn to moist, so dried ginger is the main medicine for dirty cold. The chest can also be divided into lung, lung cold and loss of gold. When qi is trapped in the chest, it is full, and it is full. Therefore, cough is born against the disease of upper qi, and its main purpose is pungent and warm. "

Such as mutton, green onions, leeks and so on. People with lung qi deficiency can eat spicy food to enhance lung qi. Appropriate spicy food can stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis, increase the secretion of digestive juice, and promote blood circulation to dispel wind and cold.
