There is a proverb in southern Fujian that goes, "It is better to make up for it during the Frost Descent than to make up for it all year round." These small proverbs fully express the importance that the people of Fujian and Taiwan attach to the Frost Descent solar term. Therefore, every Frost Descent season, ducks in Fujian and Taiwan will sell like hot cakes, and sometimes they will be out of stock and in short supply.What are the benefits of eating duck during the Frost Descent?Duck is a waterfowl. Duck meat is sweet and non-toxic. It has the effects of replenishing internal deficiency, disinfecting heat, and promoting urination. It can be used for headaches, insomnia due to yin deficiency, cough due to lung heat, edema due to nephritis, difficulty urinating, low fever and other symptoms. Regular consumption of duck meat is most beneficial for people with weak yin deficiency, edema, poor appetite, dry stools, and persistent low fever. Duck meat is rich in B vitamins and vitamin E. Its fatty acids are mainly unsaturated fatty acids and low-carbon saturated fatty acids, which are easy to digest.In addition, the proportion of fatty acids in duck meat is close to the ideal value, and its chemical composition is very similar to olive oil, which has the effect of lowering cholesterol. 100 grams of duck meat contains about 300 mg of potassium. Potassium is related to heart rhythm, and high potassium can counteract sodium. High sodium is an important cause of high blood pressure, so it is very healthy to eat more duck meat instead of other meat dishes. Although duck meat is delicious, there are some things to pay attention to when eating it. First of all, patients with colds should not eat duck meat, otherwise it may aggravate their condition. It is better to drink chicken soup when you have a cold; secondly, people with chronic enteritis should eat less duck meat, as duck meat tastes sweet and salty, and eating it may aggravate the enteritis; people with symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, back pain, and dysmenorrhea should also eat less duck meat. |
