There are snow stalls on the streets of Chengdu,1one in 0 yuan and one in 20 yuan. The price is really not cheap. This really surprised many people, especially many residents living in northern cities, who actually sell snow? You know, in those cities in the northeast, it is troublesome enough to deal with snow alone, and you can actually make money from it here. This is mainly because it seldom snows in Xi, so these businessmen can see business opportunities. In fact, snow has many unexpected uses in our lives, not just for fun. Snow water can have a series of wonderful functions such as lowering cholesterol and treating burns. This is not nonsense, it is recorded in the ancient book Compendium of Materia Medica. Perhaps many people don't know that the content of heavy water in the water after snowmelt is 25% less than what we usually see, but the content of enzyme compounds is much more than that in our ordinary water. So what do we mean by heavy water? In fact, heavy water can inhibit the metabolism of many organisms. Therefore, many researchers have found that if you can drink 1~2 cups of snow water every day, you can effectively lower your cholesterol and even prevent arteriosclerosis. Does it feel amazing to hear this? However, everyone must pay attention to drinking snow water. After all, many places are seriously polluted and short of water. Be sure to choose really clean and pollution-free snow water, otherwise it will be bad for your health.

Compendium of Materia Medica is a medical work in ancient China, which has a very profound research value. According to this book, snow water in the twelfth lunar month is also a cheap medicine for many ordinary people, and it has a wide range of uses. For example, if a person is burned, the wound will be soaked in snow water for a while, which can prevent infection and make the wound no longer blister and inflame. This method can be used even if the burn lasts for a long time. So many people in ancient times used this method to treat burns.

In summer, some people may get prickly heat because of sweating. At this time, you can apply some blood to your body, which can relieve itching and eliminate prickly heat. In ancient times, some literati liked to preserve the snow water on plum blossoms and make tea in summer, which made them feel particularly emotional. Even in A Dream of Red Mansions, there are related anxieties. Jia Baoyu made tea with snow water collected from plum blossoms, which felt particularly sweet. However, after all, there were not so many pollution sources in ancient times, so you can rest assured to drink. It is still not recommended that you drink snow water directly, so as not to increase the burden on your body.
