Small food and ingredients are better than small medicine: the great doctor’s heart-centering meal

One day I was having a party with friends. As soon as I entered the room, I heard a friend talking: "Being able to eat and drink is not considered strong. Being able to eat and drink is healthy. Eating and drinking will lead to disaster." ..." When he saw me entering the house, he said that this was what he had heard and felt that it was very right. I just happened to be here to tell everyone whether this was the case.

I think this sentence is very interesting, and it is indeed true. Eating with the stomach is for food and clothing, eating with the mouth is to enjoy delicious food, and eating with the brain is responsible for health.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the best doctor is not a person who can cure difficult or even terminal diseases, but a person who can prevent the emergence and development of diseases, or even never let himself get sick. In this sense, everyone’s best doctor is actually themselves.

So, this gave me a reminder, wouldn’t it be a great good if we could teach everyone the knowledge about disease prevention and treatment? Of course, I definitely can’t make everyone become a doctor and give themselves medicine through a book. Medication is a major matter that requires caution, and I never dare to take it lightly.

However, dietary therapy is different. If everyone can master the correct eating method, the benefits to physical health will be immeasurable. Our traditional health care emphasizes "five grains for nourishment, five fruits for help, five livestock for benefit, and five vegetables for supplement". The Western proverb goes "you are what you eat" (people are what they eat), which emphasizes the impact of diet on a person's body and mind. shaping effect. Thus, the idea for this book came about.

In the long history, our ancestors have formed a set of healthy dietary theories to maintain the body. For example, the humid climate in the south easily produces moisture in the body. Sichuan people eat spicy food to dehumidify, while Cantonese people dehumidify by drinking soup.

Today, our lives and eating styles have undergone tremendous changes. We can eat all kinds of vegetables all year round. Seasonal and regional differences are no longer obvious. Foreign foods and diets The model is also very popular, but our bodies have not evolved so fast, which has artificially caused many problems.

So through this book, I hope to make everyone pay attention to diet and decipher the code of health from their daily meals, drinks and bites. Therefore, for some common diseases in daily life, from many foods, I have selected the ones you will see below.

As the saying goes, "Diseases come from the mouth." If we don't eat the right things for a long time or have an improper diet, we will certainly get sick, but then again, eating the wrong things will make us sick, so eating the right things will make us sick. Can it cure diseases? Of course you can. This is what I want to tell you. Some foods have a very good effect in treating diseases. As long as you choose the right ones, cook them in the right ways, and eat them right, the lesions can also be eliminated. This is why I It is said that "diseases can also come out of the mouth."

However, I need to remind everyone that although I have pointed out the therapeutic effects of certain foods, this does not mean that other foods have no value. Comprehensive and balanced nutrition is very important. Theoretically speaking, no food is bad, and no food is the best. The key is that you have to know how to eat it.

Even the most common ingredients are grown by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth. If they are used in the right place or properly combined with other foods, their efficacy is no worse than medicine.

My body is very healthy, but it is not the result of taking health supplements. My busy work does not allow me to go to the gym every day. Moreover, due to work needs, I have to sit every day and have to I often work overtime... This kind of lifestyle is not considered healthy, but I understand the nature, taste and combination of food, so I can nourish my body as well as possible.

Now, I hope that the blessing God has given us can come to everyone. Each of us can become our own best doctor. Whether it is preventing or treating diseases, I believe these small ingredients can help you.
