"omnivores, food also" - the balance of miscellaneous and refined
The human body needs nutrition in many ways. From the perspective of human evolutionary history, there must be many sources of food to meet the needs of nutritional balance. Although the types of foods in daily diets are limited, the humans ingesting grains, vegetables, fruits and wild natural plant varieties are unlimited in practical life. The diet is simple and precise, but it is harmful and harmful, especially for the adverse growth and development, partial eclipse and food too easy to cause trace elements of iron, zinc, iodine, mineral elements, calcium and certain vitamins lack and some of the excess nutrients. Therefore, in addition to the need to pay attention to the color, smell, taste and shape of food, the diversification of food sources should be promoted.
The ancients said: "The omnivores and food!" Professor Li Ruifen, a famous nutritionist, once said that in order to maintain good health, 25 to 30 different types of food should be eaten every day.
"Appropriate food" - Cold and heat balance of the diet
"The dieter, with no burning, no cold," pointed out the cold and heat balance of the meal. "Food should be warm," eating too much cold food can damage the spleen, stomach, and lungs. Those who are physically weak and chilly should eat less raw food, especially in the summer. The folk also emphasizes that “do not be anxious when you are hungry, avoid cold on an empty stomachâ€. On the contrary, the diet should not be too hot, otherwise it will easily burn the stomach and throat. According to reports, in the high-incidence area of ​​esophageal cancer in North China, residents have a habit of drinking hot water and hot porridge. Therefore, Sun Sikai, an ancient medical scientist, pointed out in the “Thousand Gold Wings†that “hot food hurts bones, cold food hurts the lungs, heat does not burn lips, and cold does not have ice teeth.†Therefore, the diet should pay attention to the balance between cold and heat.
"Avoid food before eating and avoid static after eating" - before and after eating and drinking
The balance between movement and rest before and after meals is equally important, because the balance between the various foods and nutrients that people consume in their daily diet and the heat energy consumed by the body must be balanced. In "The Analects of Confucius and the Party", the article says: "The inability to eat can't be found in the language." Explain that the ancients advocated that food before eating and eating should be quiet and special, not distracting, talkative, and to the valley of Lina and digestion. The ancients remarked, “The diet is lying, no accumulation is required, but one hundred diseases are born.†According to an ancient book of medical treatment, “After eating, it is a disease that causes lung, head wind, and middle armpits. Therefore, proper activities should be performed after meals. As the saying goes, “One hundred paces after a meal can live ninety-nineâ€, indicating that walking slowly after eating is beneficial to health.
"Stomach is good and pleasant" - emotional balance before and after eating
Maintaining a calm and happy mood before eating and eating is conducive to normal digestive function, and vice versa will harm the spleen and stomach. "Su Wen Pai Tong Pao Theory" said: "When anger is on the air, when the joy is relaxed, the grief is on the air, the fear is on the air, the shock is mad, and the thought is on the knot." It is difficult to imagine that people are angry. In the case of disorders of the blood, normal digestive function can also be guaranteed. The ancients said: "After eating, you must not be angered. After you are angry, you cannot eat." All unusual emotions in the process of eating should be ruled out.
Music has great benefits for digestive function. "Shou Shi Bao Yuan," said: "The sound of the spleen is good, the sound is moving and grind." Therefore, our Taoist not only proposed the "spleen is grinning and grinding," but also developed a set of "notes" and "Pan "Wait, play soft and clear music to match eating."
