      Supplementing food in autumn is also called "autumn fat sticking". What to eat at this time after the hot summer? Today, I want to introduce to you the female As for the supplement plan, women should choose supplements based on their own constitution, so that they can truly play a tonic role.

      Women should take supplements according to their physical constitution in autumn

      Yin deficiency: People with yin deficiency are prone to getting angry due to the lack of yin essence in the body and relatively strong yang energy. Improper supplementation can easily add fuel to the fire. Most of these people are thin, have thin pulse, dry mouth, dry eyes, and poor sleep. Treatment should focus on nourishing yin and dredging, and use traditional Chinese medicines such as alum, angelica, Amomum villosum, and Magnolia officinalis. Avoid smoking, alcohol, and spicy food on a daily basis, and avoid being too hungry or too full.

      Physical deficiency: Most of the supplements used by people in daily life are of a thermal nature. People with weak kidneys and spleen are often deficient. Taking supplements is prone to chest tightness, stomach fullness, dizziness, palpitations and other phenomena. Therefore, people with weak spleen and stomach should take supplements slowly regardless of food or medicine. The diet should be balanced and light, and eat more japonica rice, barley, yam, potatoes, mushrooms, etc. Exercise appropriately and avoid overexertion.

      Liver stagnation: Liver failure can lead to stagnation of liver qi, strong heart and liver fire, irritability and irritability. Even the slightest use of supplements will cause symptoms such as chest tightness, abdominal distension, and reluctance to eat. Therefore, it is necessary to emphasize the use of dredging drugs, such as Bupleurum Shugan Powder and Shugan Pills, to achieve a tonic but not greasy effect.

      Phlegm-dampness: Phlegm-dampness blocks the body, which can lead to deficiency over time. If you do not clean up the phlegm first and simply use supplements, it will aggravate the phlegm and dampness. clinical We often encounter patients who have taken a large amount of Codonopsis pilosula and Astragalus membranaceus, but feel even more fatigued. If they continue to take supplements, they may cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, aggravate existing lesions, etc. This kind of people should eat more winter melon, kelp, hawthorn, lentils, etc. to remove dampness.

      Blood stasis: Blood stasis can turn into heat over time, and blind supplementation may lead to the risk of bleeding. Suffering from cardiovascular disease disease , diabetes, etc. sexually transmitted diseases of elderly , blood vessel function is weak, blind supplementation is most likely to cause problems. In fact, to keep blood vessels unblocked, you don’t need any major supplements. Black fungus, tomatoes, fish, hawthorn, garlic, corn, apples, etc. are all very good choices.

      3 tips from the Women’s Supplement Society in Autumn

      1. Learn to pick: When picking fruits in autumn, you need to choose juicy ones.

      In this season, you can eat more fresh dates, which can nourish the heart and calm the mind and contain a lot of vitamin C.

      When choosing fruits in autumn, you should choose juicy ones, such as fresh longan, Grape , pear, etc. Especially the fresh longan in this season, the folk proverb goes “one longan is equivalent to one” egg ”said. At this time, the fresh longan is the most juicy and has the best nourishing effect on women. It has the beauty effects of nourishing the heart and calming the mind, replenishing qi and blood, nourishing yin and moisturizing dryness. It should be noted that do not eat dried longan, which will aggravate the fire in the human body.

      2. Learn to avoid: Eat less spicy food

      The climate in autumn is relatively dry, so it is not advisable to eat more spicy food. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that lung qi is strong in autumn, and spicy food enters the lungs. If you eat spicy food, the lung qi will be too strong, causing pharyngitis, cough and other respiratory diseases.

      Spicy will also affect the next season healthy . Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the lungs belong to metal and the liver belongs to wood. Among the five elements, metal overcomes wood. Therefore, excessive lung qi will damage the liver qi, and symptoms such as bad temper will appear next season. Therefore, it is better to eat less pungent and more sour foods in autumn to nourish yin and moisten the lungs.

      3. Learn how to use medicine: donkey-hide gelatin is not suitable for people with weak spleen and stomach, and angelica is not suitable for taking during menstruation.

      I believe many women know that donkey-hide gelatin has the effect of nourishing blood. However, because donkey-hide gelatin is made from donkey skin, it is very difficult to digest. Women with weak spleen and stomach should not take it. If you want to nourish yin and moisturize dryness, you can eat some almonds and sesame seeds.

      In addition to donkey-hide gelatin, common nourishing traditional Chinese medicines for women include astragalus, dangshen, and angelica.

      Yam: It is characterized by tonic but not stagnant, not hot and not dry. It is suitable for consumption by men, women, old and young, sick or not, healthy and weak.

      White lentils: In early autumn, use white lentils to cook porridge or decoction and take them in soup, which can relieve residual summer heat, resolve summer heat dampness, strengthen the spleen and stomach, and increase appetite.

      Lotus root: Raw lotus root can clear away heat, promote fluid production and quench thirst.; Ripe lotus root can strengthen the spleen, whet the appetite and benefit blood. Therefore, there is a saying that "it is better to eat lotus root raw in summer, and it is better to cook lotus root in cool autumn. It is better to eat raw lotus root fresh and tender, and it is better to eat cooked lotus root for the elderly."

      Chestnuts: have the functions of strengthening the spleen and stomach, nourishing the kidneys and strengthening the bones. Walnut: It can nourish the kidneys and essence, warm the lungs and relieve asthma. It can also nourish qi and blood, moisten dryness and intestines.

      Peanuts: When peanuts mature in late autumn, use fresh flowers and raw kernels, or grind them into soup and take them, or boil them and decoct them. They should not be fried.
