How to eat onion, ginger and garlic is healthier.

When swine flu hit, ordinary onions, ginger and garlic were sought after as never before. The value of garlic soared the fastest, while green onions and ginger showed no weakness. In fact, the function of onion, ginger and garlic is far more than seasoning and sterilization. They also have many special functions. Professor Wang Yi, director of dietotherapy and nutrition department of Guang 'anmen Hospital of Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, recently gave three health lectures on how to eat onions, ginger and garlic more nutritionally. Scallion and black bean soup can prevent colds. We usually only eat scallion, that is, the middle part, but we don't know that there is a lot of knowledge in scallion leaves and roots. Scallion pear soup can relieve cough and eliminate phlegm: Scallion has the effects of publishing, activating yang and detoxifying. Use onion 10g, pear 1g, and rock sugar 50g, boil water to drink, eat pears, moisten the lungs and resolve phlegm, and dispel wind and cold. It is effective for cough and phlegm caused by wind-cold. Maybe you're worried about whether this pear will taste like onions when boiled in water. Go home and try. I promise this worry will go away. When we eat onions, we never thought about using lobster sauce to make onions. In fact, these two foods together dispel cold and wind, as well as colds, colds, headaches and so on. it wont hurt you to try it Boil the soup with scallion and black beans, and drink a little before two meals to prevent colds. Douchi is called fermented food, which can improve human immunity. Sweating with scallion is better. It's a pity that when you go to the vegetable market to buy food, many vegetable sellers will help you break the onion leaves neatly. The onion leaf part contains more vitamins A, C and calcium than the white part. In winter, some people like to store onions on the balcony, but when they want to eat, they can take them in and have a look. Onion leaves are covered with a thick liquid. Most people must wash mucus immediately. In fact, this mucus is a particularly important nutrient in onion leaves. Contains cellulose, pectin and allicin, and has the effects of strengthening yang, nourishing yin and promoting blood sugar stability. In fact, green onions are not afraid of freezing. When they are brought to room temperature from the outside for a period of time, the mucus will seep back into the onion. It would be a pity to wash it off. Boiled water with scallion beard can effectively relieve pain: scallion beard is also a traditional Chinese medicine, so don't throw it away. Its biggest function is to relieve pain. If you have a headache or sore throat, you can boil some water with scallion and beard. Wang Yi tip: Sometimes go to the vegetable market to see chopped green onion, don't miss it. Everyone has eaten leeks, and chopped green onion can also be pickled. Pickled chopped green onion is not only delicious, but also can prevent bloating and cure stomachache, because chopped green onion has a good effect of regulating qi. Three kinds of ginger have different effects. Ginger has been called "rejuvenation grass" since ancient times. As the saying goes, eating radish in winter and ginger in summer does not require a doctor to prescribe. But that doesn't mean you can't eat ginger in winter. On the contrary, eating ginger in winter morning has a good effect of dispelling cold. There are three kinds of ginger: purple ginger, old ginger and old ginger. Different eating methods have different effects. Purple ginger as a dish: cutting ginger buds into filaments and frying meat is definitely a delicious and nutritious dish. This ginger bud, which we also call purple ginger, is the tender bud of ginger. It has more water and less fiber than Jiang Duo and ginger juice, so it can be eaten directly, so it tastes very good when used for cooking. Ginger-separated moxibustion: Ginger-separated moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine therapy. The method is very simple, that is, put ginger slices on the navel and press a warm water bag on it. This method of ginger-separated moxibustion has a good effect on treating carsickness and stomachache. In addition, when we have stomach cold, stomachache and dysmenorrhea, we often drink some brown sugar Jiang Shui. Here, I'll give you another seasoning-pepper, so that the medicinal effect of this bowl of soup will be more obvious. Chinese medicine believes that pepper is warm and can warm the middle and relieve pain. We add a small amount of pepper to the traditional brown sugar ginger water, which will have a better effect on those with cold and pain in the abdomen. Ginger is used as medicine: ginger, that is, the dried rhizome of ginger, is sold in general pharmacies. Ginger is more spicy than ginger, which can disperse pneumatic blood, but it can't be used generally, and it is generally used as medicine. Internal heat due to yin deficiency, blood heat, and madness are forbidden. Ginger skin is good for water use: ginger has the saying that "the ginger skin is cool and the ginger skin is hot". If someone has constipation, bad breath, oral ulcer and other symptoms of "fever" in the body, it is best to eat only ginger skin instead of ginger meat, which can not only give full play to the diuretic effect of ginger skin, but also avoid "adding oil to the fire" by hot ginger. Boiling ginger skin with winter melon skin and watermelon skin also has a good diuretic and detumescence effect. Wang Yi tip: Ginger can promote hair growth. Chinese medicine believes that the kidney is the source of hair. In order to make hair grow faster and better, it is best to eat some black sesame seeds and black fungus that tonify the kidney, and the hair growth effect will be better. Garlic should be "smashed into pieces". To talk about the efficacy of garlic, I summed up the "six resistances": antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, anticancer and antiparasitic. The other five functions are easy to understand, but when it comes to antibacterial, you may say that it is too professional, but it is actually very simple. In our life, putting two cloves of garlic in soy sauce bottles and adding some garlic when pickling vegetables is to prevent the growth of microorganisms. The most precious garlic is allicin, but garlic can't be eaten whole. Because alliin and alliinase in garlic are independent, alliin and alliinase can be combined into allicin only by crushing or mashing garlic. Eating garlic raw is very beneficial to the body's absorption of allicin. In addition, allicin is afraid of high temperature, and it will lose a lot when cooked. If people are uncomfortable eating raw garlic, they can sprinkle garlic before cooking, which not only removes the spicy taste of garlic, but also avoids the loss of allicin. Some people say that soaking onions in red wine can reduce blood fat. I want to say here that soaking garlic in red wine can also reduce blood fat. Just like soaking Laba garlic, after peeling garlic, the whole petals are put in red wine and soaked for 5 days. You can drink 20 ml of red wine and eat three cloves of garlic every day. Garlic wine lasts longer than onion wine. Wang Yi pointed out that many people are afraid to eat garlic, mainly for fear that it will smell like garlic after eating it. Here are three tips to remove garlic flavor: the first one is to take a sip of wine to remove garlic flavor when eating garlic; The second is that garlic capsaicin is afraid of vegetables containing chlorophyll, such as coriander, fennel and wormwood stems. When you want to eat garlic, remember to eat it with these vegetables; The last one is used by many people-chewing gum, it is best to choose mint flavor, which has better deodorization effect than other flavors.
