An old Chinese doctor teaches you how to nourish your stomach?

　　Professor Wang Hongkun is the instructor for inheriting the academic experience of veteran Chinese medicine experts across the country. He has been engaged in orthopedics since graduating from Pingle Osteopathic College in Luoyang, Henan in 1963. clinical At the age of 74, he still has a loud voice, a vigorous walk, and full of energy. He still has to go to the clinic three and a half days a week.

　　He once suffered from gastroesophageal reflux disease, and has basically recovered under his own care. However, he still pays great attention to his meals and pays attention to nourishing his stomach. Now let’s listen to Professor Wang’s TCM tips for nourishing the stomach.

　　Eat stomach-nourishing red dates regularly

　　Professor Wang Hongkun is from Neihuang County, Henan Province, where red dates are abundant. He has liked eating red dates from his hometown since he was a child, and he eats about 10 of them every day until now. The internal yellow jujube is different from the jujubes from other places. The jujube stone is flat, not very big, and there is not a lot of pulp.

　　The locals call this jujube "flat nucleic acid", which tastes sweet but sour, with a unique flavor. Traditional Chinese medicine says that sweetness enters the spleen and acidity enters the liver, so eating this jujube can not only strengthen the spleen and stomach, but also nourish the liver. Cooked red dates are sweet in taste and warm in nature. They have the effects of replenishing qi, nourishing blood and calming the nerves. They are suitable for people with weak spleen and stomach. diarrhea , People who are tired and weak often consume it.

　　In late autumn, early spring or winter when the temperature is not high, he often takes some jujubes and boils them in a pot. After the water boils, skim off a layer of white foam on the top, then filter out the water, add water to cover the jujubes, and simmer over low heat while boiling. After about 3 hours, the skin of the red dates turns black, and there is only a small amount of sugar-like liquid oozing out from the dates in the bottom of the pot. At this time, the dates are particularly sweet and delicious, and are easy to digest and absorb. When the weather is hot, Professor Wang cooks less and eats as much as he wants.

　　blister Peanuts are highly nutritious

　　Peanuts are Professor Wang Hongkun’s favorite dried fruit. Generally, people like to eat boiled peanuts or peanuts soaked in vinegar. Peanuts soaked in vinegar can help lower blood pressure. But Professor Wang likes to eat peanuts soaked in water. He usually takes a bowl of peanuts, rinses them with water to remove impurities, and then soaks them in more water.

　　After about 4 hours, the peanuts will be soaked and enlarged. Eat as you go, crispy, tender, sweet, and very refreshing, even more delicious than fresh peanuts just pulled out of the farmland. Eating some raw peanuts when you suffer from pantothenic acid or indigestion can quickly and effectively stop vomiting and make antacid.

　　Professor Wang suggested that the elderly often eat peanuts, because peanuts are very nutritious. The unsaturated fatty acids in them are essential fatty acids for the human body. They can reduce blood cholesterol and triglycerides, reduce blood viscosity, improve blood microcirculation, increase the activity of brain cells, and enhance memory and thinking ability. In addition, eating peanuts is also good for people with low platelets.

　　Although raw peanuts are good, if you eat too much, you will feel bloated, especially those that have not been soaked in water. People who don't often eat raw peanuts may have loose stools if they eat too much for the first time, so they should start with a small amount, such as about 10 pills. After eating for a period of time, the gastrointestinal tract adapts, and you can gradually increase the amount to about 40 pills.
