To prevent colds and keep healthy, everyone can pay attention to "eating" and do it well in winter. Health experts pointed out that during the winter solstice, everyone can eat two more dishes, eat two more meats and drink two more teas to avoid two flavors, keep warm from the cold, stay healthy, and learn early and benefit early.

The first meat: mutton
Mutton is the best tonic in winter. Eating mutton properly in winter can resist the cold, replenish energy and nourish the body. It's a delicacy to kill two birds with one stone.
I remind you, mutton is a little smelly. When cooking, you can add a proper amount of cooking wine and ginger to remove the fishy smell, and the mutton tastes better.
Mutton in winter can be fried, stewed, barbecued and braised. It eats differently and tastes different.
Mutton stewing, stewing and steaming: original flavor, ensuring the maximum loss of nutrients, the best nourishing effect, and taking into account your appetite.
Mutton is fried and eaten: mutton is smooth and tender, delicious, can replenish qi and deficiency, and is warm in the middle, so it is a good assistant to diet.
Mutton taken orally: it can keep out cold, tonify deficiency cold and increase appetite.
Second meat; beef
Beef is rich in nutrition and has the reputation of "king of meat". Beef in winter is people's favorite "hot commodity".
Beef is high in protein, low in fat and delicious. Eating some properly in winter can replenish middle energizer, spleen and stomach, strengthen bones and muscles, improve the body's disease resistance, warm the body and nourish the stomach, and enrich blood and beauty, which is of great benefit.
As a reminder, beef is hot and dry, so you should not eat too much at a time. Beef has a high content of saturated fatty acids, which is especially suitable for patients with hyperlipidemia and cardiovascular diseases.
Beef can be fried, stewed, braised and roasted in the diet. Tell you a few tips for cooking beef:
1 When stewing beef, add an orange peel or a pinch of tea in it, so that the beef will be cooked faster.
When stewing beef, adding some carrots can remove the fishy smell, make up for the lack of carotene and other vitamins in beef and improve its nutritional value.
Stir-fried beef, with onions, tomatoes and other vegetables, can make up for the lack of low vitamin C and inhibit the rise of cholesterol in the human body.
When stewing beef soup, the bigger the beef, the better, so that the more nutrients in beef can be dissolved in the soup, the stronger the flavor of beef soup.
After the winter solstice, everyone should drink more water and tea. I recommend two good teas:
The first kind: green tea.
The weather is dry in winter, and drinking green tea can alleviate this situation. There are many kinds of green tea, and green tea is also rich in nutrition. Proper drinking can protect cardiovascular health, keep warm, replenish water, relieve internal heat and eliminate greasy.
Attention should be paid when making green tea: 1 The water temperature should not be too high to prevent the water temperature from being too high and damaging the nutrients of tea. The water temperature is preferably 80 degrees.
Try to use a glass when making tea, so that the color of tea is beautiful and the nutrition is better.
Don't take the first sip of water when making green tea. Adding water for the first time is mainly to heat the tea evenly. Pour out the first soaking water, and then add boiling water.
Don't drink tea overnight.
The second type; Red date tea
Jujube tea is tea brewed with dried dates. Drinking jujube tea in winter is very good for your health.
Soaking red dates in water can enhance human immunity, keep warm and prevent cold hands and feet. It can also enhance physical vitality, invigorate qi and nourish blood. Soothe the nerves, soothe the liver and relieve depression. Drinking jujube tea often can also strengthen the spleen and stomach.
When drinking jujube tea, you can also add some ingredients, recommended:
Red jujube ginger tea. Simple preparation, delicious taste, nourishing, nourishing, health preserving, warming the middle warmer, dispelling cold and keeping warm.
Ginseng and jujube tea can replenish qi and blood, enhance physical strength, restore vitality, drive away cold and keep warm.
After the winter solstice, people should avoid two kinds of food in their diet and don't eat or drink at will.
The first one: eat less cold, greasy and spicy food.
It's cold in winter. Don't eat cold food, it will hurt your stomach and affect your health.
Don't eat too much greasy and spicy food. If you eat too much of this food, you will have dry mouth, stomach and throat discomfort, which is harmful to your health. Don't eat too much greasy food.
Second: eat less smoked and pickled food.
Winter is the hometown of all kinds of smoked food, but you can't eat more of these foods. Eat moderately. The nutrition in these foods has been destroyed a lot, and there are nitrite in them. Eating too much will produce carcinogens and endanger your health. It is best to reduce the number of meals accordingly.
Generally speaking, after the winter solstice, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the cold current is coming on March 9. Everyone must take care of themselves, pay attention to food supplements, keep warm and add clothes in time. Don't stay up late at night, go to bed early and get up early, and don't go out to exercise too early.
In addition, we should keep an open-minded and optimistic attitude, be happy and overcome it. Only when you are in a good mood can your body be better and you can survive the cold winter strongly.
