Food taboos and precautions for Rainwater 2017

"Late spring cold" can easily cause heat congestion in the internal organs, so it is not advisable to eat hot and dry foods to avoid "adding fuel to the fire." Accumulated heat makes people "crave for coolness", and eating too much cool food will "attract like qi", causing dampness and cold to damage the internal organs, causing imbalance symptoms such as stomach cold, stomach chill, and diarrhea. Therefore, it is better to maintain a moderate diet, eat hot meals and hot dishes, but avoid eating hot peppers, drink less liquor, and other foods that are warm or hot in nature. Suitable: leek, onion, pea sprouts, glutinous rice, pumpkin, eggs, fish, etc. In spring, Yang energy is generated. People with yang deficiency should pay special attention to supporting Yang energy and nourishing liver yang. However, the liver and spleen are beneficial to each other. While nourishing the liver, you must also regulate the spleen and stomach. "If the spleen and stomach are injured, the vital energy will decline, and if the vital energy declines, people will shorten their lifespan." Harmony and release of the old respond to the spring energy. Eat more leek, onion, mustard, pea sprouts, fennel, celery, shepherd's purse, etc.; warm and nourishing food to protect the spleen and stomach and overcome the spring cold, such as glutinous rice, oats, pumpkin, carrots, green beans, eggs, fish, shrimp, beef, soy products, etc. Porridge is the perfect food for this season. It is not light and boring. It is made from old soup and may be added with seafood, lean meat, or colorful rice and beans, and garnished with green vegetables. The water and rice must be harmoniously blended and the dish must be soft and smooth. This requires effort and is extremely delicious. Eat less: fried and grilled foods, potato chips, biscuits, roasted nuts, greasy, cold, and sour foods. Rain does not mean more rain, it only means that the temperature will rise and the snow will turn into rain. This year, there are many winds and the air is dry, so dry skin and mouth, constipation and soreness often occur. No matter the hot or cold properties of the food itself, as long as it is fried or grilled, it will become a food that easily causes inflammation. Potato chips, biscuits, and roasted nuts are all dry foods, so eat them in moderation. Eat less greasy food, which is difficult to digest and can cause indigestion. Cold food can directly damage the spleen and stomach. Sour foods (vinegar, lemon, hawthorn, plum) will affect the rise of liver qi, so be sure to avoid them. Avoid eating: raw onions, garlic, pepper, chili, white wine, liver. In March, the food starts to grow old. Do not kill, do not rob, do not punish. Eat spicy food to promote the development of the old. But those with strong smell or those that can cause semen loss and discourage energy should be avoided. Raw onions, garlic, pepper, chili peppers, and white wine are pungent, but they are strong and spicy and have a murderous aura. "Do not eat liver in spring" according to "Golden Chamber". "Qian Jin Fang" (Lichun, Yu Shui) advises not to eat raw onions and Polygonum seeds, as they will cause wind on the face. Do not eat animals that are hibernating (such as frogs, snakes, turtles, and tortoises).
