Healthy recipes during a cold
First, corn, ham and rice.
I was dizzy in the morning and didn't want to eat at all, but I was weak because of a cold. How can you satisfy the whole day's work without breakfast? I happen to have corn and ham in the refrigerator, and they are all foods that I won't hate anyway. It is said that rice can increase physical strength most. Let's go together.
This dish is super simple: ham and corn kernels are cooked together in a rice cooker. Add light soy sauce after cooking, cover for a while, and it's over.
I thought I didn't want to eat canteen food at noon. I'll pack another one when I'm full and solve it together at lunch. It's perfect.
Second, radish ribs rice
I won't go into details about the benefits of eating radish in winter, and ribs are also the baby's favorite. With the sauce and sticky rice, I'm hungry. Here's how to do this:
1*** Pork ribs, diced white radish and ginger slices are boiled in water, and the water is drained after cooking. Save the soup for later use.
2*** Mixed sauce: soy sauce, soy sauce, cooking wine and pepper.
3*** Hot oil, add onion, ginger and garlic until fragrant, add ribs and radish and stir fry.
4*** Add the sauce, stir fry, pour in a spoonful of the soup just left, and stir fry.
5*** Stir-fry the ribs and radish with sauce and soup, and pour the whole pot into the unripe rice to be cooked.
6*** Wait until it's ripe, and it's over.
This dish is really delicious. I ate two bowls with a bad cold. Wow.
The remaining sparerib soup can be used to cook noodles the next day.
Three, coke chicken wings
I heard that coke can be used to treat colds. All right, give it a try. If it can't be cured, at least it tastes sweet.
1*** Make several horizontal cuts on each chicken wing and marinate with salt for a few minutes.
2*** Hot oil, saute ginger, onion and garlic, add marinated chicken wings and stir fry.
3*** Saute with soy sauce.
4*** Pour in coke without chicken wings, medium and small fire, and add the lid to cook.
5*** Fire juice, plates, over.
Fourth, cola ginger tea
You can't waste the coke left over from the chicken wings made in front. My last cold was in my hometown. My aunt cooked me two large cups of cola ginger tea, and I felt warm and sweaty after drinking it. The specific method is to put the coke into the pot, put the ginger slices into the coke, boil it over medium heat and simmer for a while.
Ways to prevent colds
1. Eat more red sweet potatoes.
Because potato food is rich in B vitamins and minerals such as potassium and magnesium, it is a good product for invigorating qi and benefiting the body. Especially for people who want to prevent obesity and pursue bodybuilding, potatoes, as a substitute for refined rice flour, usually take yam, sweet potato, taro and potatoes as staple foods, which can not only effectively control weight gain, but also maintain various nutritional supplements.
2. Eat more fruits and vegetables with the word "Xiang"
Eating more fruits and vegetables with the word "fragrance" can eliminate fatigue and restore physical strength. Banana: it is rich in potassium ions necessary to maintain the normal activities of human muscles and nerves, which can alleviate the fatigue of the body; Lentinus edodes: containing lentinan, mannitol, trehalose and other active substances, it has the functions of improving immune cell activity, improving autonomic nerve regulation, enhancing body detoxification and so on, and can effectively eliminate fatigue; Coriander: rich in linalool, light coriander essence, citrus lactone and so on. Eating with kelp and radish can neutralize lactic acid produced during muscle activity and relieve fatigue.
3. Eat more yellow-green fruits and vegetables.
The reserve of vitamin A in human body is easy to decrease. If it is not supplemented in time, dry eye and respiratory tract infection are prone to occur in winter and spring. Therefore, at present, we should eat more orange vegetables such as pumpkin, carrot and tomato. In addition, because the content of vitamin C in melons and beans is also low, it is easy to catch a cold when changing seasons, so it is necessary to eat more green leafy vegetables to supplement vitamin C.
The solution to a cold
First, prepare cold medicine.
Painkillers, such as ibuprofen, acetaminophen and aspirin, are all known drugs for treating colds. Although there are various cold medicines on the market, they are basically the above ingredients. Whether you choose tablets, capsules, a soluble tablet or a cup of granules, this is the best way to treat a cold.
Second, prepare decongestant.
Decongestants can help people clean the sinus cavity and relieve symptoms such as nasal congestion and poor breathing caused by colds. Most drugs for treating colds and flu contain some decongestants, which can refresh your mind. But if you want to rest, try not to take it in advance, because the exciting ingredients in the medicine may not make you fall asleep so easily.
Third, supplement zinc.
A recent study shows that taking zinc syrup, tablets or buccal tablets can alleviate the symptoms of cold patients and take longer to recover. However, this method should be used with great caution, because long-term use may cause adverse side effects such as vomiting and diarrhea.
