During the period of the Republic of China, the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River were still picturesque, and the stone roads of the ancient town were meandering in the mist and rain, as if telling an ancient story. I stood at the head of the bridge, looking into the distance, and an inexplicable thought welled up in my heart.
"The world is full of fragrant flowers in April, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple are in full bloom. "This spring in the south of the Yangtze River is always so beautiful that people are intoxicated. However, in the midst of this beauty, I can't help but ponder a question: why do some people live a hundred years and others die young? Is it fate, or is there another secret?
As I was lost in thought, an old man slowly passed me. He had gray hair, but he was in good spirits and walked steadily. I curiously stepped forward and accosted: "Old man, how long do you live?"
The old man smiled and replied, "Six out of seventy." ”
I was amazed at his age and even more surprised at his mental state. I couldn't help asking, "Sir, you seem so healthy, do you have any health secrets?"
The old man stopped, stroked his beard, and said slowly: "The way of health preservation is precious in nature. Among them, diet is the foundation of health. In my life, my favorite thing is the multigrain. ”
My heart moved, and I hurriedly asked, "What's so special about this?"
The old man nodded and said, "Grains are the essence of heaven and earth, the gift of nature. It is different from fine rice noodles and is rich in dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals. These nutrients have many benefits for the human body, such as aiding digestion, lowering blood sugar, and boosting immunity......"
Listening to the old man's story, I felt as if I had found the secret of longevity. I began to learn more about the benefits of multigrains and found that it had been favored by many people during the Republican period.
I consulted a large number of ancient books and materials, and found that as early as ancient times, people had recognized the health value of cereals. "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" mentions: "Five grains are for nourishment, five fruits are for help, five animals are for benefit, and five vegetables are for filling." "The five grains here refer to miscellaneous grains. During the Republic of China, with the introduction of Western medicine and people's increasing attention to health, the health value of cereals was widely recognized.
I learned that people during the Republic of China paid great attention to the intake of grains in their diet. They add coarse grains such as brown rice, millet, and corn to their rice, or grind them into flour to make a variety of pasta. Such a diet is not only nutritious, but also can increase satiety and reduce the intake of fine foods, so as to achieve the purpose of health preservation.
However, I've also found that not everyone understands the benefits of multigrains. Some people stay away from cereals because of poor taste or habit problems. I feel very sorry because I know they're missing out on an important health secret.
So, I decided to spread the benefits of multigrain to more people. I started writing articles in newspapers about the nutritional value of multigrains and how to maintain their health. I also organized a number of lectures and events, and invited experts to explain the knowledge of cereals. Through these efforts, I gradually found that more and more people are starting to pay attention to multigrains and try to incorporate them into their diet.
In the process, I also made many like-minded friends. We discussed the benefits of cereals and shared our experiences and insights. We have also set up a group to specialize in the cultivation and processing of cereals, hoping to bring more high-quality cereals to the people.
Over time, I have noticed that my physical condition has also improved significantly. My mental state is fuller and my body is healthier. I'm starting to realize that it's not just because I'm focused on diet and exercise, but because I've found a health regimen that works for me – and that's eating more grains.
Now that I'm getting older, I'm still physically strong and refreshed. Whenever someone asks me about my health secrets, I don't hesitate to tell them, "Eat more grains!" because I know that this is not only my experience, but also the crystallization of the wisdom and experience of countless predecessors.
"Life is rare for seventy years. "I looked at the rolling mountains and sparkling lakes in the distance, and my heart was full of emotion and satisfaction. I know I've found the secret to my longevity, which is to eat more grains and make them a beautiful part of my life.
In this ancient water town of the Republic of China, I seem to see a healthy figure, they pay attention to the intake of grains in their diet, and pay attention to nature and harmony in their lives. They interpret the secret of longevity with their own actions, that is, to return to nature, cherish every grain of food, and let life bloom with brilliant brilliance in the ordinary.
