Osamu and the Big Han are the coldest seasons of the year. As the saying goes, “The March 9 and the 4th March go on ice†can be seen as cold. After the chill has passed, it will lead to a vibrant spring and usher in a new year's solar cycle. What kind of health do you have in this season?
Warm food
Chinese medicine believes that lamb, dog meat, longan, leeks, walnuts, millet and other foods have the effect of warming the Qi and benefiting the body, and eating more can increase the ability to keep out the cold. On the other hand, cold or cold food such as duck, crab, banana, cucumber, pear, mung bean, watermelon and rock candy is best eaten less.
Iron-containing foods:
Studies have shown that women with poor cold tolerance have lower levels of iron in their blood than men, and plasma thyroid hormone levels are reduced. Iron is an important raw material for the manufacture of hemoglobin, and it is responsible for oxygen transport metabolism in the body. If female diets have low iron content, they are prone to suffer from iron-deficiency anaemia, resulting in insufficient oxidation of nutrients and insufficient heat production to make it easy to feel cold. Thyroxine has a heat-generating effect, it can increase the basal metabolism, accelerate the skin blood circulation, if the long-term lack of iodine will affect the synthesis of thyroid hormones, the body's ability to keep the cold will therefore be reduced. Therefore, nutritionists point out that women should take 18 mg of iron daily, but most women do not meet this standard.
Iodine-containing foods:
The body's thyroid gland secretes a hormone called thyroxine that has a thermogenic effect, while thyroid hormone is composed of iodine and tyrosine. Tyrosine can be "produced" by the body, but iodine is supplemented by the outside world. Kelp, seaweed, shellfish, oysters, sardines, spinach, fish, shrimp and other foods are rich in iodine, so choose to eat.
Calcium food
Medical research proves that the fear of cold is related to the lack of minerals in the diet, especially calcium deficiency, which can affect the stretching and excitability of the heart muscle, blood vessels and muscles. Therefore, winter may wish to eat more milk, soy products, shrimp and other calcium-rich foods. In addition, carrots, sweet potatoes, lotus root, green onions, potatoes and other root vegetables contain a lot of minerals, regular consumption can also enhance the body's ability to resist cold.
Vitamin-containing foods
Low temperatures accelerate the metabolism of vitamins in the body and should be supplemented in the diet. Such as vitamin A can enhance the body's ability to withstand cold; vitamin C can improve the body's ability to adapt to the cold. Therefore, the intake of vitamin C-rich foods such as animal livers, carrots, pumpkins, and foods rich in vitamin C such as fresh vegetables and fruits should be appropriately increased in the winter.

Therefore, the intake of vitamin C-rich foods such as animal livers, carrots, pumpkins, and foods rich in vitamin C such as fresh vegetables and fruits should be appropriately increased in the winter.
