China has a vast territory and rich resources, and different places have different representative delicacies. We eat every day, and there is a great relationship between diet and health.

Many countries belong to this region, but due to factors such as different national cultures, their dietary patterns are not exactly the same. It is just that there are many similarities.

If you are prone to diarrhea, you might as well use yogurt instead.

In addition to this dietary approach, research has also found a relationship between food intake and lifespan: Controlling your diet is beneficial to longevity.

They conducted experiments on animals and found that most of the monkeys who controlled their diet survived, while many of the monkeys who ate casually died.

Eat until you are 70% full at each meal, and don’t put down your chopsticks reluctantly until you are full.

Eating 70% of your food will help you live a healthy old age, which will help reduce the digestive burden on your stomach and intestines. Your brain can also tell you in time that you are full, helping you prevent obesity, reduce the risk of disease, and naturally make it easier to live longer.
