When I was a child, I often heard the old man at home say: Do you need a doctor's prescription to eat radish in winter and ginger in summer? . At that time, I listened to it as a joke, and when I grew up, I realized that these jingles, which spread among the people, contained a lot of truth about the balance between yin and yang. If you can really do it as you say, it will definitely be good for your health. But why on earth do radish and ginger have such an effect? If it is true, does it mean that dietotherapy can replace drug treatment?

First, eat radish in winter and ginger in summer 1. The benefits of eating radish in winter

In fact, radish is a good thing whether it is eaten in winter or summer. It's cold in winter, and everyone generally likes to warm up and make up for it. At this time, human activities will be less, leading to dry gas accumulation in the body, which is prone to flatulence, food accumulation, constipation and other problems. Proper consumption of radish can effectively regulate the accumulated heat in human body and achieve the effects of digestion, ventilation and spleen strengthening. At the same time, it is also of great benefit to regulate the thinness of the body.

Radish has the effect of resolving phlegm, but if it is coughing, it is not suitable for eating raw radish. It needs to be boiled before eating. In addition, radish and ginseng can not be eaten together, which will affect the effect of ginseng.

2. Why is it good to eat ginger in summer?

The weather is hot in summer, and ginger has the effect of promoting hair growth. Is it really good? In fact, due to the summer weather, people are always greedy for cold, whether it is diet or life, such as eating cold drinks and blowing air conditioners. In summer, the consumption of yang in human body is accelerated. If you eat a lot of cold things again, eating ginger at this time can dispel the cold in the body, supplement the yang, balance the body and improve the epidemic power of the body. In addition, people generally have no appetite in summer, and ginger has the function of appetizing, strengthening the spleen and stimulating appetite.

Finally, bacteria are easy to breed in summer, so ginger has the function of sterilization and disinfection. Eating more ginger in summer can effectively reduce diarrhea caused by various infections or bacterial infections.

Ginger is certainly a good thing, but it can only be eaten properly, not much. Proper consumption is good for health and can dispel wind and cold. But if you eat too much, it will make your yang deficiency, which is not good for your health.

Second, can dietotherapy replace medical treatment? Both ginger and radish are the most common and common ingredients in our daily life. Eating more radishes in winter and a little ginger in summer is really good for your health. But everything is not absolute. Dietotherapy can only be used as a daily regimen. If you are really sick, you still need to go to the hospital as soon as possible, instead of blindly believing in the so-called folk remedies.
