"Bite the spring" takes the meaning of the ancients "bite the grass roots and do everything", which represents a kind of tenacity that can bear hardships and withstand wind and rain.

"Bite spring": that is, get up in the morning and chew a crisp radish first. The Chronicle of the Ming Dynasty said: "When beginning of spring was in China, no one chewed radish, saying it was spring."

Beginning of spring is the first of the 24 solar terms. The founder is the beginning. After a long cold, spring finally came. Beginning of spring is full of vitality, the spring breeze turns into rain, and everything is silent. With the hope and expectation of spring, a brand-new year has begun.

A "new" takes the meaning of "new" to welcome the new; Secondly, these five foods have divergent effects, which can disperse and dredge the qi of the five internal organs, dissipate stagnation and relieve exterior syndrome, sterilize and drive away cold, prevent viral and bacterial infections such as colds and some infectious diseases coming in spring, and are beneficial to health care.
