Food & drinks

Often hear that to have more fresh fruits and vegetable can increase the vitamin B, C to anti-oxidation, anti-cancer, able to purge and nourish the skin and, also some of other benefits for the human body, but if take overdose, it also counterproductively to the body system too. Thus, should be take base on each environments, weather, air and humidity is concerned. As in Europe, the United States, Soviet Union, it’s good for health. Why? Because of the European regional air is dry, little of sunny, and the weather is almost to be cold, thus, fresh fruit can be do more than skin care, anti-oxidation. But, for those countries in Asia, specially the southeast, it could be said that it’s the land of wet soil and humidity, the over taken of fresh vegetable and fruits will cause the stomach-cold, spleen and kidney’s “qi” (power) deficiency, blood stagnation easily lead to resistance. In Chinese medicine study, the spleen and stomach consider as soil of the 5 elements, soil is the place to plant all things, there are billion and billion of cells in our body are treated by Spleen & Stomach. The deficiency of Spleen & Stomach will cause the Lung work abnormal, our body system mostly are depended on the spleen and stomach. If stomach’s “qi” (power) energy is weak, it will be cause allergic rhinitis. Once moisture get increased and raise, this would cause the collaterals get blocked, cerebral insufficiency, dizziness, and headache. Or if moisture blocked meridians can cause physical acid scaffold pain, arthritis, also can cause gastritis, bloating of stomach, the deficiency of Stomach will also cause the moisture raised up to the heart to increase cardiac work overload, so that cardiac enlargement, cardiovascular blocked, chest tightness, shortness of breath. Or moisture intrusion of Uterus (womb) can lead to uterine blood friction, resulting in fibroids, fat seeds, “water bags” in womb and so on. Such as lack of energy for stomach will also leads to stomach indigestion, affect hematopoietic dysfunction and anemia, red white blood cells out of balance, Comparing of Stomach-intestinal deficiency to soilless can’t planting trees, stomach consider as soil (1 of the 5 element), liver is “wood” (1 of the 5 element) once it’s abnormal, I will impact to liver’s “qi” (power), easy to get a hepatitis, fatty liver (hepatic adipose infiltration), cirrhosis, and etc. With my own experience, the disease for human can classify in to 4 areas: (1) Food, for hot food has toxic heat where as cold food get pathogenic cold, food should be properly controlled and taken. Such as the gastrointestinal and, lung’s “qi” (power) deficiency will lead to the incapable of resistance for all kind of exogenous evil (they are: stroke, cold, heat, humid, dryness, temper, and others), viruses and bacteria easy to penetrate in to our body system which will cause fever, cold, anaphylactic of allergic rhinitis or other diseases and so on. (2) Air, the air which we breathing daily also contain virus and bacteria. (3) Care, people have to take care of themselves, work must not overload, night life must be appropriated, do not easy to get anger and, take enough rest is very important. (4) From the disaster and calamity which is unavoidable. Here I offer the following food and some concepts toward food for your reference. Wish you have a healthy life and, good luck.
