When the light snow comes, winter begins to become beautiful. Don't forget to arrange "three more and two less" and inherit the dietary wisdom of our ancestors.

Light snow is the second solar term after winter. From this day on, it means that the cold air is getting stronger and stronger, the weather is getting colder and colder, and rainfall and snowfall are increasing.

"Twenty-four solar terms" mentioned: "In mid-October, the rain was thin because of the cold, so it condensed into snow. The words of the villain are not prosperous. " It means that in October of the lunar calendar, when it rains and it is cold, it will condense into snow, but it is not so cold, so it is called light snow.

Then according to the season, the atmosphere of heaven and earth is changing, and our diet should be adjusted appropriately. Huangdi Neijing said: "Spring is born in summer and autumn harvest in winter". Then don't eat too spicy food in winter, but make up for it and eat more warm food, such as black food: black rice, black beans, black sesame seeds, chestnut and yam.

Then in diet, we should remember this "three more and two less", conform to the season and inherit the diet wisdom of our ancestors.

1. Eat more black food.

Winter belongs to water on the five elements, and the corresponding color is black. In ancient times, people attached great importance to seasonal diet, paid special attention to nourishing in winter, and said, "It must be replenished when it gets dark." So black food will be more nourishing, and the corresponding organ is the kidney.

Then you can drink more black rice porridge, black soybean milk, eat more black fungus and black sesame seeds after the light snow festival. In winter, we need to save energy to adapt to the vigorous vitality of next spring.

2. Drink more hot soup and porridge

After a light snow, the weather was dry. Although it is cold outside, it is actually easier for us to get hot and dry inside, and we often feel thirsty and dry skin. Therefore, you should drink more hot soup and porridge in your diet to nourish your body.

It is best to drink radish soup in winter. Radish in winter is sweet and juicy. It will be a little spicy if you eat it directly, but it will become sweet radish soup when you make soup. Especially easy to feel dry and eat too much nourishing food. It is particularly comfortable to drink radish soup at this time.

3. Eat more foods rich in folic acid.

In winter, when the weather is gloomy, the sunshine is less, and the days are short and the nights are long, it is easier to feel depressed and in a bad mood. Then we should eat more foods rich in folic acid to adjust our diet and make us happier.

For example, you can eat more bananas, kiwis, soybeans, spinach and all kinds of dark vegetables. These foods contain more folic acid, which can regulate the mood.

Of course, there are also taboos in winter diet. Spicy food will be too divergent and consume our oxygen, which is not conducive to "winter storage". Therefore, less pickling and less spicy.

Less pickling

Winter diet should be "less salty and more bitter", eat less salty and eat more bitter vegetables, such as all kinds of green leafy vegetables. Most pickled foods are high in sodium and salt, which is not good for the health, especially the three highs. Pay special attention to eating less pickled food in winter. Although they taste good, they are also very harmful to health.

5. Eat less spicy food

Eat less spicy food in winter. Huangdi Neijing says: Spring grows in summer and autumn harvests in winter. Spicy food belongs to divergent food, which will spread our yang, which is not conducive to the growth of yang in the next spring.

And the weather is dry, especially in the north, eating spicy food is more likely to cause uncomfortable feelings such as dryness. In some wet and cold areas in the south, it is better to eat spicy food.

Winter diet, we remember to eat more black food, drink more hot soup porridge, eat more foods rich in folic acid to prevent depression. At the same time, we should eat less spicy food and less pickled food. Remember: "Make up for a winter in September, and be disease-free in the coming year"! I hope everyone can spend this winter smoothly.
