Time flies too fast. In the blink of an eye, it is almost the annual Mid-Autumn Festival. The streets and alleys are filled with cheerful festive atmosphere. Red lanterns are hung at the entrance of supermarkets to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the food about the Mid-Autumn Festival is even more dazzling. Everyone knows to eat moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but besides moon cakes, these five kinds of food can also help you spend the full moon. They are all seasonal fruits and vegetables, fresh and cheap. I call them the five treasures of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Before and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will buy some of these five ingredients every time, which is in line with the season, nutritious and delicious, and it is good for my health to eat them often.
the first kind of food, sweet potato.
Around the Mid-Autumn Festival, sweet potatoes were ripe and excavated, and strings of sweet potatoes of different sizes were dug out of the ground. The bigger ones were cooked in soup, and the smaller ones were cooked or roasted. That smell made people cry. Sweet potato not only has balanced nutrition, but also has the little-known functions of preventing sub-health, losing weight and bodybuilding. As early as the Ming Dynasty, Li Shizhen, a physician, once said, "People in the sea live longer, but eating sweet potatoes is also the reason.". It means that eating more sweet potatoes can be healthy and long-lived, which is of great benefit to the body.

Taro is also a mature food around the Mid-Autumn Festival. It tastes delicate, sweet and fragrant, and can be used as both food and vegetables. It is a tonic for all ages. Among the minerals contained in taro, the content of fluorine is high. Eating taro often has the benefits of cleaning teeth, preventing caries and protecting teeth.
