Come to Mr. Shui Mo's website to learn more about September of the lunar calendar in 2020!What are the customs of Beginning of Winter?Repair farm tools at the beginning of winter <br /> In the middle of winter, when farm work is finished, farmers should check and repair all farm tools during their free time. If any are found to be damaged or unusable, they should be repaired or replaced immediately to avoid missing the farming season next spring. According to the Book of Rites: Monthly Ordinances, in the last month of winter, "the farmers are ordered to put aside their farming work, prepare farmland, and prepare farming tools." That is exactly what I meant.Welcoming Winter on the Beginning of Winter <br /> In feudal society, the imperial court would hold a ceremony to welcome winter in the suburbs, reward officials with winter clothes, and provide relief to the orphans and widows. It is recorded in "Lüshi Chunqiu·Mengdong": "This month is the beginning of winter. Three days before the beginning of winter, the historian asked the emperor, and said: 'Winter begins on a certain day, and virtue lies in water.' The emperor then fasted. On the day of the beginning of winter, the emperor personally led the three dukes, nine ministers and officials to welcome winter in the northern suburbs. On his return, he rewarded those who had died and provided relief to the orphans and widows." On that day, the emperor led the three dukes, nine ministers and officials to the northern suburbs six miles away to welcome winter. After he returns, the emperor will reward him generously to ensure social stability and provide relief to the orphans and widows. What should we eat more during the Beginning of Winter?Eat more staple foods, including lamb, quail and sea cucumberProtein, fat, and carbohydrates are called thermogenic nutrients. Therefore, in winter we should appropriately increase the intake of staple foods and fats to ensure the supply of high-quality protein. Foods such as dog meat, mutton, beef, chicken, venison, shrimp, pigeon, quail, and sea cucumber are rich in protein and fat, produce a lot of heat, and have the best effect in keeping out the cold. As the temperature drops suddenly, some parts of the body are particularly sensitive to the cold, so special attention should be paid to keeping warm. Eat more kelp and seaweed Can promote the secretion of thyroid hormone: The human thyroid secretion contains a substance called thyroxine, which can accelerate the oxidation of many tissue cells in the body, increase the body's heat production capacity, enhance the basal metabolic rate, speed up blood circulation in the skin, and resist cold. Iodine-containing foods can promote the secretion of thyroid hormone. Foods rich in iodine are: kelp, seaweed, hair algae, jellyfish, spinach, cabbage, corn, etc. Eat more animal liver and carrots Can increase cold resistance: cold climate causes significant changes in human body's vitamin metabolism. Increasing the intake of vitamin A and vitamin C can enhance cold resistance and adaptability to cold, and has a good protective effect on blood vessels. Vitamin A mainly comes from animal liver, carrots, dark green vegetables, etc., while vitamin C mainly comes from fresh fruits and vegetables.
