Secret recipe: garlic ginger lemon apple vinegar paste

Producer: wang jue

Make reason: the old man in the family has cardiovascular block trouble, then learn this food therapy from the doctor.

How to make it: 1. Peel the garlic, cut the ginger into small pieces, and cut the lemon into small pieces.

2. Put the garlic, ginger and lemon juice into the clay pot in a ratio of 1:1:1. Add the same amount of apple cider vinegar to the pot. Do not cover the pot and let the water evaporate, about 15 minutes;

3. When the temperature drops, add honey and mix it carefully. The amount of honey is mainly to make the paste easy to enter and keep fresh.

Take method and effect: take 1 tablespoon before breakfast every day to kill bacteria, embellish intestines, prevent colds and soften blood vessels.

Yang minchun's interpretation: from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, this recipe has certain rationality: garlic color, white flavor, into the lung, has a good effect of warming spleen, warming stomach, warming lung detoxification, it and the traditional Chinese medicine "longbai" (also known as wild garlic) belong to liliaceae allium, high similarity; Ginger flavor xin, sexual temperature, often used to warm stomach sanhan, ancient also commonly used in treatment of angina (sudden pain); Lemon can act qi, dispel phlegm, improve stomach, treat stomach pain, cough and wheeze, and fruit belong to rutaceae, citrus, shape, taste and effect are similar. Apple cider vinegar is a drink but it has a certain effect of removing blood stasis. Honey can not only harmonize the medicinal taste, but also have a lot of medicinal value.

Traditional Chinese medicine treatment of chest bi (angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and other diseases of chest tightness mainly) the common prescription is the trichosanthis longbaijiu decoction, zhishu longgui zhi decoction, orange zhijiang decoction, the efficacy is certain. This diet formula combines trichosanthis longbai liquor soup, tangzhijiang soup, take ordinary ingredients, ready to cut, fresh ingredients make up for the lack of its medicine, convenient but do not lose its effect.

It should be noted that traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes syndrome differentiation for treatment, ginger and garlic are spicy, and not suitable for people with Yin deficiency and fire. Moreover, irritating ingredients such as this spicy, acid, excessive intake increases with the stimulation of the stomach, suggest a superficial gastritis, gastric ulcer and gastric mucosal injury and gastric acid secretion too many people to be careful, don't even eat this prescription feel effective crowd long-term consumption, the best period of time let the cultivation of the gastrointestinal tract.

Emphasize even a bit, the body is unwell must seek medical advice in time, listen to the professional advice of the doctor, cannot credulous folk prescription and delay illness.

Preparing secret recipe: rock sugar, snow pear loquat leaf

Producer: xu lianyu

Make reason: at the beginning 6 years old darling cold cough at home, do not like to take medicine again, hear this food cure is very good, go picking a bit loquat leaf to boil water to drink, now, this square home is used all the time.

How to make: 1. First soak loquat leaves in warm water for about 10 minutes, because the back of the leaves is easy to hide bacteria and dust, and then brush with a toothbrush one after another. After washing, cut loquat leaf into small pieces with scissors or a kitchen knife.

2. Wash and cut snow pear and put it into the pot with loquat leaves. Cover with 800-1000g water and start to cook.

3. Add rock sugar after water has been boiled for 20 minutes, and then roll it over low heat for 20 minutes. Let the water turn almost to yellow color and let it simmer for 5 minutes

Efficacy: it not only has the effect of relieving cough, moistening lung and removing phlegm, but also has the effect of preventing influenza.

Min-chun Yang interpretation: on the composition of it, old loquat leaf contains laetrile, ursolic acid, oleanolic acid, vitamin B1, vitamin C, tannins, organic acids, sugars and other substances, higher than the tender content of loquat leaf, the effect of reducing gas and stomach, clearing lung cough is better, and more tender loquat leaf on the surface of the villi, not easy to clean, too much fluff, scratchy throat, throat discomfort, so using loquat leaflets is better, and use honey cough effect is better.

Whether snow pear is nucleated does not have much influence on the effect of stewed snow pear with rock sugar. Remove the pear core to avoid the sour taste of pear water. If you want to pursue flavor, it is recommended to remove the kernel.

Loquat and snow pear tend to be cold and cool, which is suitable for patients with hot pulmonary cough, including cough, phlegm yellow viscosity, turbid nose, dry mouth and pharynx, dry urine, red tongue, thin yellow moss, and pulse number. Hollow, take for a long time afraid of injury spleen and stomach, unfavorable.

In addition, it should be noted that everyone has different constitution, etiology and severity of symptoms, so the loquat leaf boiling water should not be blindly adopted to treat family members' cough. If you take loquat leaf boiling water for a period of time, the cough symptoms are not well relieved, and you should go to the hospital in time to avoid delaying the disease.

Secret recipe: wormwood leaves smoked feet

Producer: luo xiaoqiang

Why it's made: mugwort is a good thing. I usually use it when I catch a cold in autumn and winter, or when I catch a cold after blowing.

How to make it: 1. Add 30g to 50g of mugwort leaves, and fry the leaves in about 1500ml boiling water for about 15 minutes. Remove the mugwort leaves and pour the decocted liquid into a small foot basin.

Place your feet on the edge of the pot to be fumigated. To avoid vaporization, cover the feet with a cloth slightly larger than the foot basin.

3. When the water temperature is low enough for the feet to bear, the feet can be soaked directly in the basin.

Efficacy: it is very effective for the cold type of cold, as well as for prevention.

Min-chun Yang reading: ai Ye Xin, bitter, warm, can warm the hemostatic, regulate the menstrual function, fetus, cold smoked feet with moxa leaf bubble water can have very good temperature expelling dampness, clear the role of qi and blood, from the perspective of modern medicine, smoked feet make argyi active ingredients through the skin, make the local capillary expansion, enhanced the local blood circulation, metabolism of skin tissue, thereby promoting inflammation, blood stasis, pathogenic products such as absorption to dissipate. Cold cold, with the moxa leaves smoked feet slightly sweat out, can promote the evil dissipation of cold wind, lung qi xuan, promote cold healing.

Common people should pay attention to the following points when choosing mugwort:

1. Because of artemisiae argyi of temperature, suitable for cold syndrome, characterized by foot and joint pain, women dysmenorrhea, menstruation delay, the color dark purple blood clots, afraid of cold, lips blue, violet moss white slippery tongue, pulse heavy late or string shibuya, separated and moxa Ye Xin temperature, if menstruating, suggested that try not to use mugwort smoked feet, because it is likely to result in excessive menstrual quantity, menstrual extension.

2. Use mugwort to fumigate the feet for not too long each time, usually 15 to 20 minutes is appropriate, and not more than 30 minutes at most, because when fumigating the feet, blood will flow to the lower extremities, and the brain is prone to insufficient blood supply, resulting in dizziness and palpitation.

3. If oneself have low blood pressure or be diabetic, must want to use mugwort leaf below the guidance of the doctor, this kind of crowd mugwort leaf fumigant foot, cannot too too frequent, and requirement to water temperature also is stricter.
