The weather in spring is changeable, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, which can easily lead to a series of uncomfortable symptoms in the body, such as spring sleepiness, susceptibility to colds, gastrointestinal discomfort, etc.
In spring, liver qi is vigorous, and if it is not properly regulated, it may cause liver qi stagnation, resulting in emotional instability, headache, chest tightness and other uncomfortable symptoms. Therefore, spring health care needs to focus on soothing the liver and relieving depression, harmonizing the spleen and stomach, so as to maintain the balance and health of the body.
Around the Qingming Festival, it is the season when some seasonal vegetables are tender and delicious. Toon is rich in nutrients, including protein, fat, vitamin C, calcium, phosphorus, iron, etc., which has a significant effect on health preservation.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that toon is warm in nature, bitter in taste, returns to the liver, lungs, spleen and stomach meridians, has the effects of dispelling wind and heat dissipation, detoxifying and killing insects, strengthening the spleen and appetizing, etc., and has a good conditioning effect on the common discomfort symptoms in spring.
