I often advise patients not to eat fruit, and many of them are skeptical and ask why! I have to answer this question several times a day, and today I took the time to write a blog post, hoping that after reading it, you will have a new understanding of fruit and help your own health care. There is a phrase in the Yin Fu Jing, which is called “eat its time, a hundred bones reason. Just six words, the diet is very clear, the road to simplicity ah. These six words can be interpreted as follows: Eating this place, at this time of the year, what has itself, is absolutely the best. All the distant mountain and sea food is not as good as this local ‘it’. Let’s look at the fruits currently sold on the market, with the above conditions? First: it must be locally produced At present, logistics is developed, many fruits are foreign fruits, not local fruits, as the saying goes, “a side of the soil to raise a side of people”, foreign fruits, the most suitable for the origin of people to eat, because the local temperature, soil quality, environment, create things that are to raise the local people, eat foreign fruits, it is very easy to hurt the body. For example, Hainan produces watermelon in winter, Hubei does not produce watermelon in winter, if the winter of Hainan watermelon transported to Hubei, eat in the cold winter, and eating poison. Second: must be in line with the season The weather is dry in autumn, nature gave us Sydney, nourishing Yin and moistening dryness; hot weather in summer, nature gave us watermelon, cool and summer heat. If you save the Sydney to the second summer to eat, even if it is locally produced, it is also harmful, because the summer humidity, consumption of Sydney will aggravate the body’s wet evil ah. At present, many fruits on the market are not in season, apples are sold all year round, saints fruits are sold all year round, bananas are also …… These fruits are naturally bad for the body to eat, because first of all, they do not meet the season, and secondly, in the process of maintaining these fruits, artificially used some preservatives, the poison of both The body can not stand ah. In addition, many fruits in order to sell a good price, ahead of the market, often using some hormones to accelerate the ripening of fruits, such as the market to sell the “peach”, the appearance looks beautiful, as if it is ripe, in fact, when eating found that the core is still tender, which means that the peach is not ripe, but only played ripening agent, so that his surface looks like ripe This means that the peach is not ripe, but has been given a ripening agent to make its surface look ripe. This kind of fruit is currently a lot of ah! They also do not meet the “seasonal”. The third: whether it meets the needs of the body Many fruits are cold, eaten in large quantities for a long time and damage the spleen and Yang. The majority of us, the heart is restless, the heart does not sink, forming a state of heat and cold, the upper hot dry, but the lower jiao cold, eat with cold fruit although the heart was comfortable, but the sacrifice is their own kidney Yang, time will eventually lead to spleen and kidney Yang deficiency, women will be irregular menstruation, uterus fibroids, face spots; men will be back pain, leg sinking, lumbar disc protrusion…. … Many patients with long-term thin stools pond, cold feet in winter, varicose veins in the lower extremities, etc., all related to eating cold food. There is a popular saying: sick people do not avoid the mouth, the doctor ran broken legs. Cold fruit every day to eat, take more drugs is also in vain ah! Patients will say: fruit heated up can eat, heated up is not cold well! Cold fruit heated can not change the cold nature of the fruit, just like we drink chrysanthemum tea, although the tea is made with boiling water, drinking hot mouth, but it is still down the fire, cold, because its medicinal properties are cold. Cold fruit heated can not change the coolness of the fruit, unless you put some ginger, black pepper, cinnamon, star anise and other warm seasonings, heated with the fruit, but such fruit is still delicious? Fourth: the reason why patients are advised to eat less fruit and give up fruit The starting point for eating less fruit and giving up fruit is to return the diet of “eating fruit as a meal” to the diet based on “grains as nourishment”.
