Here's what I'll sort out for you. Come and have a look!

First, the summer solstice health fruit blackcurrant

According to the research statistics of scientists, blackcurrant has extremely rich nutritional value. Every100g of blackcurrant contains 18 1 mg of vitamin C, 322 mg of potassium, calcium, zinc, phosphorus, magnesium, iron and other substances, which can effectively reduce blood lipid, tonify kidney and enhance immunity.

dark plum

Mume is rich in vitamin b2, potassium, magnesium, manganese and phosphorus. Modern pharmacological research holds that "people with alkaline blood live longer". Mume is an alkaline food, because it contains a lot of organic acids, which will be quickly converted into alkaline substances after being absorbed by the intestinal wall. Therefore, ebony is a well-deserved excellent anti-aging food. In addition, the organic acids contained in dark plum can also kill pathogenic bacteria such as mold invading the gastrointestinal tract.

plum

It's a good season to eat plums. Plum has a long history of medicinal use, and the ancients believed that plum had the effect of beauty beauty. Chinese medicine believes that plums have the effects of promoting fluid production, nourishing the liver, clearing away heat and inducing diuresis. Sun Simiao said that "liver diseases should be eaten." Plum is rich in sugar, which has laxative effect and can be used to treat constipation. The minerals contained in it have the functions of purifying blood and hematopoiesis, can strengthen the function of liver and kidney, and can treat hypertension and physiological disorders.

People with fever, thirst, bone deficiency and ascites due to liver disease, teachers and actors with hoarse or aphonia, chronic hepatitis and liver cirrhosis are especially beneficial to eat. Plum contains a high amount of fruit acid, which hurts the spleen and stomach. Excessive consumption is easy to cause stomach pain, and patients with peptic ulcer and acute and chronic gastroenteritis should not take it. Eating too much is easy to produce phlegm and dampness, hurt the spleen and stomach, and damage the teeth. Therefore, spleen deficiency and phlegm dampness and children should not eat more.

musk melon

Melon is sweet and cold in nature, which not only has the effects of quenching thirst, removing heat, dredging triple energizer, facilitating urination and defecation, but also has the effect of preventing heatstroke and qi. There is a substance called "muskmelon pedunculin" in its pedicel, which can be used to treat jaundice, icteric infectious hepatitis and liver cirrhosis. Gua pulp can also treat mouth and nose sores. Melon seeds have the effects of clearing away heat, detoxicating and diuresis, and can be used to treat lung pain. However, patients with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, diarrhea, vomiting blood and hemoptysis should not eat.

When picking melons, you can choose the method of "seeing, touching and smelling". Looking at the skin and flesh, from the ecological characteristics, melon with thick skin has high sugar content, and it tastes crisper and sweeter. Because the melon skin is thick, it contains rich nutrients. Second, touch the pedicel of melon, and pay attention to compare the fruit stalks. If the fruit stalks are too thick, they may be stained with more auxin, and the taste is naturally poor. Pull the pedicel of melon by hand, and the rhizome naturally falls off, leaving a small pit, indicating that the melon is naturally mature. Three smells, the melon with rich aroma is better.

hami melon

Hami melon, cold and sweet, contains protein, dietary fiber, carotene, pectin, sugar, vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C, phosphorus, sodium and potassium. Eating cantaloupe can significantly promote human hematopoietic function and can be used as a dietotherapy product for anemia. If you often feel tired, restless or bad breath, eating cantaloupe can improve.

Although cantaloupe is not a summer fruit, it can effectively prevent people from getting sunburned. Hami melon is rich in antioxidants, which can effectively enhance the ability of cells to resist sun protection and reduce the formation of melanin on the panel. In addition, eating half a cantaloupe every day can supplement water-soluble vitamins C and B, which can ensure the body's need to maintain normal metabolism.

Second, the summer solstice health knowledge 1, to cool.

This refers to clothing and living environment. Don't wear too thick clothes in summer. Many young people like to wear denim clothes, which is not suitable for summer. The color of clothes should be mainly light, so as to absorb less heat. Try to choose cotton and flax as the fabric of clothes, which is easy to absorb sweat and breathe. The room should be cool, and the indoor temperature is low in the morning and evening. The doors and windows should be opened and ventilated. At noon, the outdoor temperature is higher than the indoor temperature, so doors and windows should be closed and curtains should be drawn. A cool environment will make people feel calm and secure.

2, avoid eating cold at night

People with short summer nights, a little older, or slightly weak constitution, often cold in the abdomen, and difficult to digest diet, lettuce, melons, etc., which are forbidden in summer, should pay special attention to eating such foods at night. At night, we should also pay attention not to eat meat, noodles, cold and sticky things, otherwise we can see abdominal distension, vomiting and diarrhea.

3. Go to bed late and get up early to take a nap

At this time, the public's daily recuperation should conform to the changes in nature, and should go to bed late and get up early, while the old and the weak should go to bed early and get up early, and try to keep about 7 hours of sleep every day. From this day on, you must take a nap. In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, noon sleep is to nourish yin with yang, and child sleep is to nourish yang with yin. As long as you can close your eyes for a while, you can achieve a good effect of nourishing yin.

4, light diet, eat more fruits and vegetables and miscellaneous grains

The summer solstice season is hot, and people's digestive function is relatively weak. Therefore, the diet should be light and not fat, sweet and thick, and it is necessary to eat more miscellaneous grains to cold the body, and not to overeat hot food to avoid helping heat; Cold eating melons and fruits should be enough, not overeating, so as not to damage the spleen and stomach; The products with thick taste and fat should be less and not more, so as not to turn heat into wind and stimulate the disease of furuncle.

5. Winter solstice jiaozi summer solstice noodles

On this day, folk people eat noodles on the summer solstice and jiaozi on the winter solstice. Why is the same pasta, but there are jiaozi and noodles? These are actually exquisite. Experts say that pasta is high in calories, and jiaozi wraps it with noodles, which means that the heat is also wrapped up, which is in line with the meaning of the winter solstice. The summer solstice solar terms, contrary to the winter solstice, should release the sun be the spirit, which is also pasta, but after the noodles are cut into strips, it means that the heat is properly released. In addition, it is best to put salt in noodle soup, and learn to drink noodle soup when eating noodles.

6, 2000ml of water every day to prevent headache and dizziness.

During the summer solstice, most people will have symptoms of drowsiness, fatigue, headache and dizziness, which can seriously affect their daily life and work. The reason is, firstly, because of the high temperature in this season, the human body can only dissipate heat by sweating, which causes a large amount of water loss in the human body. At this time, if water is not replenished in time, the blood volume of the human body will be reduced, and the blood supply to the brain will be insufficient, which will lead to headache and dizziness. Another cause of headache and dizziness is that when people sweat, the blood vessels on the body surface will expand, and more blood will flow to the body surface. This redistribution of blood can make the blood pressure of people with low blood pressure lower, thus causing headache and dizziness.

7. Rest and adjust your heart

According to the five elements theory of traditional Chinese medicine, summer is the season of nourishing the heart. Ji Kang, a pianist of the Three Kingdoms, is a famous mind-nourishing scientist. He thinks that summer is hot, so it is more appropriate to calm down and be "always like ice and snow", that is, "calm down and naturally cool". Listening to slow music is a good way to adjust your breath. The notes in music also contain elements of yin and yang and five elements. Contrary to the effect that fast-paced music can enhance the yang in the body and help people get excited, soothing music can help slow down breathing and rest the heart.
