What can’t you eat during the Beginning of Autumn in 2019?

2. It is not advisable to carry out warm tonic too early.
3. Eat less mutton, dog meat, sparrows and other hot foods
4. Eat less spicy foods and condiments such as leeks, onions, and ginger.
During the Beginning of Autumn season, it is best to increase saltiness and reduce spiciness in your diet, so as to nourish your spleen and stomach. Eat more salty foods, such as seafood, and less spicy foods, such as ginger, onion, garlic, leek, fennel, etc. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, such as pears, citrus fruits, pomegranates, water chestnuts, etc., which have the effect of moistening the lungs and producing body fluids. Eat more refreshing foods such as white fungus, lily, lotus seeds, almonds, honey, millet, black sesame, yam, black rice, beans and milk, which have the health effects of nourishing yin and moistening dryness, moistening the lungs and replenishing deficiency.

What are the taboos of health preservation during the Beginning of Autumn?

1. Eat clean food and do not be partial to certain foods. The Beginning of Heat is the time when summer changes to autumn. The heat still has some power and food is easy to spoil. As the saying goes, "Diseases come from the mouth." Eating unclean or rotten food can cause gastrointestinal diseases or intestinal parasitic diseases. You must pay attention to food hygiene. Cook food in moderation and try not to leave any leftovers. Cakes and other items should not be left out for too long to prevent bites from cockroaches and flies. When eating fruits and vegetables raw, be sure to wash them thoroughly. Diet should not be partial to one thing but should be diversified so as to play the role of comprehensive nutrition for the human body.
2. Eat less fatty and sweet foods, and eat light foods. Fatty and sweet foods refer to greasy, sweet and heavy foods, such as animal fats, sweet foods, fried foods, etc. Although this kind of food tastes delicious and sweet, you should not eat too much. Modern medical research has confirmed that overeating of fatty, sweet and greasy foods is one of the important factors causing hypertension, arteriosclerosis, coronary heart disease and diabetes in the elderly. We should pay more attention to preventing such diseases during the Beginning of Autumn. Traditional Chinese medicine advocates a light diet. Health preservation experience from ancient times to the present shows that a light diet is an important reason for longevity. 3. The temperature of the food should be appropriate, and the softness and hardness should be appropriate. People have different requirements for the temperature of food. Generally speaking, people with a yang constitution like cold drinks, while people with a yin constitution like hot drinks. The temperature of food can be adjusted according to personal preference, but it must not be too cold or too hot. If the food is not warm enough, it will not only cause adverse stimulation to the gastrointestinal tract, but also damage the yin and yang energy of the human body.
The requirements for the softness and hardness of food are also different. People with weak spleen and stomach, the elderly and children should eat semi-liquid food, such as noodles and porridge; they can also eat soft food according to the situation, such as wontons, steamed buns, and soft cooked rice. Especially for the elderly, whose organs are weak and whose teeth are not in good condition, it is difficult for them to digest slightly hard food. For ordinary people, food should not be too hard, but too soft will also affect appetite, so the food should be of appropriate hardness and softness. As the saying goes, "A good fate is not as good as good luck." A person's destiny is already determined, and the only thing that can be controlled is his or her "luck."
