Tonic food should have the function of keeping warm, that is, eat more foods that can increase the supply of heat energy and are rich in fat, protein and carbohydrates, including meat, eggs, fish and soy products. 2. Tonic food must have the function of keeping out the cold. Chinese people generally believe in "five grains for nourishment, five fruits for assistance, five animals for benefit, and five vegetables for filling". As long as you don't have a picky diet, you can ensure the body's needs for minerals such as potassium, iron, and sodium. People who are particularly afraid of cold can eat more vegetables with roots and skins. Experts believe that this type of vegetable grows in the soil, and its roots and peels contain a large amount of minerals and nutrients. 3. Tonic food should have the function of preventing dryness. The climate is dry in winter, and people often have symptoms such as dry nose, dry tongue, and cracked skin. It is very necessary to supplement vitamin B2 and vitamin C. Vitamin B2 is mostly found in animal liver, eggs, and milk; Vitamin C is mainly found in fresh vegetables and fruits. |
