"Willow yin tender green Tibetan warbler language, flower path with swallow mud", the time is one of the four hours and eight festivals of the Qingming Festival. Qingming Festival is not only a traditional festival to remember ancestors, mourn ancestors, and commemorate ancestors, but also the best season to go out for youth travel. People will go back to their hometown to visit the tomb in these days, will take the elderly out to see the scenery, and will cook a few big meals for the family to taste.
It is recommended that the elderly need to refrain from mouth this season, and those who cannot come will not refuse. Because spring health needs to follow the principle of yin and yang balance, coupled with light rain, it is especially easy to catch colds. Remember to eat less Qingtuan and braised pork, and eat more "1 meat and 2 buds" to help spend late spring safely.
Why eat less Qingtuan and braised pork?
Eating Qingtuan on Qingming Festival is a custom in many places, why eat less? Because most of the Qingtuan is added with glutinous rice flour, the calories of the filling inside are also very high, and eating a large amount is easy to indigestion, bloating, abdominal pain, etc.
Braised pork is an indispensable delicacy for large and small parties, and it is a hard dish for hospitality, and it is recommended that the elderly should also eat less. Because after a winter of warm supplementation, the fat on the elderly accumulates a lot. At this time, eating greasy and heavy ingredients will not only cause excess nutrition, but also easily lead to various discomforts in the body.
