Recently, many regions have experienced another round of cold waves, with temperatures dropping again. Experts suggest that in cold weather, following the law of "closed storage", taking appropriate nourishment, strengthening the body and benefiting qi, and keeping warm and warm. Zhang Keming, Deputy Chief Physician of the Nutrition Department at the First Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that in cold weather, the body's yang energy also changes with the environment. Winter is a good time for nourishment. It is recommended to eat more warm and flavored foods, supplement with sufficient protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, and an appropriate amount of fat, such as lamb, beef, shrimp, scaled freshwater fish, milk, eggs, soybean sprouts, chives, black beans, soybeans, etc., which can strengthen the spleen and stomach, and drive away cold. Zhang Keming said that lamb has a warm but not dry nature, a sweet but not greasy taste, and has the effect of appetizing and invigorating the spleen, warming and nourishing qi and blood. In winter, you can eat mutton ball soup with shredded radish and scallion dumplings with mutton, which can drive away cold and keep warm and improve immunity, but gout patients should be careful. In addition, milk has a sweet and mild taste, and has the effects of nourishing the intestines, tonifying deficiency, and nourishing blood. It is rich in protein and calcium. Drinking a cup of hot milk every day in winter can not only warm the middle and drive away cold, but also supplement calcium and protein, improve immunity, and prevent osteoporosis. However, lactose intolerant individuals should eat it with caution. Soybeans and black beans are mild in nature and sweet in taste. They have the effects of harmonizing the stomach, strengthening the spleen, regulating the middle and nourishing qi, moistening the intestines and nourishing blood, and benefiting the liver and kidneys. Beans are rich in high-quality protein, dietary fiber, soy isoflavones, and low cholesterol, making them ideal for winter nutrition. Zhang Keming said that while increasing warm foods, it is also important to balance your diet and avoid symptoms of "heat accumulation" in the body. Therefore, it is recommended to pair some "cool" foods, such as winter bamboo shoots, lotus roots, radishes, lilies, etc., in order to regulate sexual taste and balance your diet. In winter, in addition to increasing heat to ward off coldness, moderate exercise should also be carried out to improve metabolism, prevent muscle decay, and also bring joy to the body and mind. You can choose sports such as Tai Chi, Baduan Brocade, Wuqinxi, yoga, etc. The weather is good, and you can go outdoors for running, cycling, etc. It is not recommended to run at night in winter to avoid damaging the body's yang energy.
