is approaching the end of the year, and we pay tribute to Dong Sui . During the period that is about to end in 2022, the menacing virus has invaded almost every one of us. It is not uncommon for people around us to be "yang". How to recover from "yang"? What should I pay attention to after the sun passes? How to enhance physical fitness and avoid "Fuyang" is the more critical thing.
In this fight against viruses, one's own immune system plays a key role. After recovering from a serious illness, one is relatively weak. Although the fever and other symptoms on the surface have disappeared, the damage to the body cannot be recovered in a short while, and it needs to be recuperated slowly. Many people have neglected their own protection after being exposed to the sun. They no longer wear masks when going out, and dare to crowd into crowded places. They eat and drink as much as they want. This is actually a very unsafe practice. In case of "recovery of the sun", the gain will not be worth the loss.
After passing Yang, I remind everyone: 3. Eat more, 3. Eat less, 2 things to avoid, strengthen physical fitness, and avoid re-yang
1. Eat more vitamins , protein rich foods
How to eat during the recovery period to enhance physical fitness? Reasonable nutrition supplement is the key. Remember to supplement more protein and vitamins. Protein and vitamins are the main substances to maintain life and body activities. You cannot lack these two. During the recovery period, you should eat more and have sufficient nutrition. immunity can be improved and people will be more energetic.
Recommended recipe: braised beef
Ingredients used: 5 pounds of beef, 300 ml of light soy sauce, 1 piece of ginger, 2 shallots, 1 spoon of Sichuan peppercorns, and a small amount of salt.
1. Before stewing beef, you need to soak it in clean water for 1-2 days to allow the blood in the beef to precipitate. Until the blood is completely precipitated, the meat will become a little white and the taste will be more mellow. It will also increase the water retention capacity of the meat. After stewing, the meat will not shrink too much, and the meat will be softer and less chewy.
2. After soaking, hang it up for about an hour to control the excess water.
3, After cutting the beef tendon into large pieces, find a larger basin, put a layer of shredded ginger, green onions and peppercorns underneath, and place the beef closely in the basin.
4. Sprinkle a layer of shredded ginger, shredded green onion, and pepper on the beef, and pour the light soy sauce that submerges the beef. Press the beef with some suitable utensils. I used an iron rack and stone here to marinate for 12-24 hours.
5. The marinated beef has been completely marinated inside and out. It is much easier to marinate it again.
6. Remove the onions, ginger, and peppercorns from the marinade. Put the marinated beef in the cooking pot, pour in all the marinade, add water that has not covered the beef, boil over high heat for 20 minutes, then simmer over low heat for 30 minutes and then turn off the heat. The braised beef is ready.
7. If you want to add more flavor, you can soak it in the marinade and wait for about 3 hours. Let the beef cool naturally and absorb the juice. You can taste the saltiness in the middle and add a little salt. Don't throw away the soup. It is excellent for cooking beef noodles .
2. Eat more foods that are easy to digest.
The digestive system of a person recovering from a serious illness is relatively weak. Eating hard and difficult-to-digest foods will put a lot of pressure on the body. When choosing foods, try to choose foods that are easy to digest, so that the body can more easily obtain nutrients and help quickly restore physical strength.
Recommended recipe: Red Dates, Yams and Barley Porridge
Ingredients: half a bowl of barley kernels, 6 red dates, one yam, and 3 pieces of rock sugar.
1. Soak half a bowl of barley kernels for 2 hours. The red dates are also rinsed and soaked in water.
2. Add appropriate amount of water and half a bowl of barley to the cooking pot. After boiling over high heat, turn to low heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
3. Rinse the yam, scrape the skin, rinse the mucus on the surface, and cut into hob pieces. Add the chopped yam and soaked red dates to the cooking pot and cook for 10 minutes.
4. Add appropriate amount of rock sugar and cook until the rock sugar is completely melted and then take it out of the pot.You can also use honey instead of rock sugar. If you add honey, you need to wait until the porridge is cool before adding it to avoid losing the nutrients in the honey.
3. Eat more fruits
Fruits are rich in vitamins, and are refreshing and refreshing after eating. They also have a good effect on relieving throat discomfort. Rich pectin and plant fiber help digestion. After becoming "yang", many people deliberately increase their fruit intake according to the introduction of nutritionists and experts. This is actually a good habit, and you should continue to maintain it in the future.
Recommended recipe: Roasted Pear with Rock Sugar
Ingredients: 3 pears, half of dried Tremella , 5 red dates, appropriate amount of wolfberry, appropriate amount of raisins, appropriate amount of rock sugar, hawthorn slices, and a little osmanthus.
. Soak dried white fungus in cold water for two hours, tear into small florets and set aside.
. Clean the red dates, remove the core and slice them. Soak the wolfberries in water, clean them, and set them aside for later use.
. Clean the pear, use a knife to remove the pear stem first, then use the knife to rotate inward from the head and tail of the pear to remove the core, and finally wrap the pear with a layer of tin foil.
. Put the pears wrapped in tin foil into the oven, heat up and down to 200 degrees, and bake for 30 minutes. After the pears are roasted, some pear juice will remain in the tin foil. You can first pour the pear juice into a bowl. Let the pears cool, then peel them and put them in the bowl.
. Add an appropriate amount of water to the pot, pour the torn white fungus into the pot, bring to a boil over high heat, then pour the peeled pears and pear juice into the pot, add the prepared red dates, raisins, rock sugar, and wolfberry and simmer over low heat for 20 minutes.
1. Eat less carbohydrate-rich foods
What are carbohydrate-rich foods? The staple foods in our daily diet are rich in carbohydrates, such as rice, noodles, steamed buns, etc., which are easy to fill up. Carbohydrates are composed of three elements: carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. They mainly exist in three forms: glucose , glycogen and sugar-containing complexes, which can provide heat energy for the human body. However, eating only carbohydrates or most foods containing carbohydrates is far from enough nutrition. Especially in this special period, it must be used together with foods rich in protein and vitamins.
2. Eat less irritating food.
Peppers, leeks, seafood, mutton and other irritating and traditional food are not recommended to be eaten at this time. The body is in the recovery period, especially the respiratory system has just experienced a hardship. Eat less irritating food, and irritating food is not conducive to the recovery of the body.
3. Eat less cold food
Now is the ninth cold day in . Cold is a "good helper" for illness, especially middle-aged and elderly people who are more sensitive to winter. Not only should they keep warm, but they should also be careful not to eat cold food. They should also eat less raw sashimi and eat more stews and hot porridge to warm the body inside and outside and reduce the occurrence of diseases.
1. Avoid strenuous exercise
For people who have turned negative, the body is actually relatively weak. It is not recommended to engage in strenuous exercise that consumes too much energy. Physical exercise should be carried out at least 1 week after complete recovery. Low-intensity walking and yoga are acceptable. Do not engage in high-intensity exercise such as rope skipping, long-distance running, rock climbing, etc. to avoid excessive energy consumption of the body, resulting in decreased resistance.
2. Avoid not paying attention to keeping warm
Even if there is no virus intrusion, winter is a period of high incidence of respiratory diseases, and influenza is prone to occur. After "Yangkang", the body is in the recovery period, and the immunity is relatively low. When going out, you should pay attention to wind protection and keep warm, and wear warm clothes, including wearing thick socks on your feet, wearing hats, gloves and other thermal insulation measures. Women who love beauty should pay more attention and do not wear cool clothes until they get through this period.
