Lettuce is cold in nature, so if you eat too much of it, you can get cold or get worse, so you need to be careful. [사진= 게티이미지뱅크]There is a saying called food and medicine mobilization. It means that the food we eat every day can influence our health, just like a medicine that prevents and treats disease. It is a term derived from the principle of oriental medicine that food and medicine have the same root. ≪Cheongeumbang(千金方)≫, an old book of oriental medicine, emphasized the importance of food, saying, “If you have a disease, treat it with food first, and if it does not get better, use medicine.”
Today (the 7th) is Soseo, one of the 24 solar terms. It is called ‘small heat’, and from this time the heat is rampant in earnest. The 24th Lunar New Year’s Day (the 11th of Chobok), which is regarded as a day to eat health food, is also approaching. There are many people who want to replenish lack of nutrition and energy through ‘Bokdalim’, which is a health food to eat in the heat of three clothes (Chobok, Duongbok, Malbok) where it is easy to get tired.
In summer, food that lowers the heat is best. However, if this is not compatible with the constitution, the opposite effect appears. Bokdalim menu also needs to consider your obesity or constitution at least once. Kim Dal-rae, an oriental doctor who is an expert in Sasang constitutional medicine, emphasized the importance of food compatibility with the constitution, saying, “If you have a hot constitution, it is comfortable to release or lower the heat, and if you have a cold constitution, you need to supplement with warm energy to neutralize the cold.” Dr. Kim pointed out, “Unlike the past, these days are an era of excess nutrition, so be careful not to eat foods that are overly nutritious or particularly greasy.”
Hot-tempered black goat meat is good for Soeumin
Black goat meat has been attracting attention as a health food for women rather than men. It is effective for thin women with weak body or weak pulse. Black goat meat is hot in nature, so it removes the symptoms of being cold and cold. It also compensates for the weak, strengthens the digestive system, and reinforces energy.
Black goat meat contains 20.6g of protein, 3.8% of fat, 112mg of calcium, 2.1mg of iron, 0.15mg of vitamin B1 and 0.25mg of vitamin B2, and 45mg of vitamin E per 100g. The fat content is less than half that of beef.
However, black goat meat is hot in nature and has a strong smell, so it is desirable to avoid it for people who have a lot of heat in the body because a lot of garlic or ginger is added when cooking. Sasang medicine classifies black goat as Soeumin’s food, so Soyangin and Taeeumin should avoid eating too much.
Lettuce, people with cold body should not eat too much
Lettuce is a summer vegetable. These days, most of them are grown in greenhouses, so they are on the table all year round. There is a saying that lettuce planted between rows of red pepper fields is good for stamina, but this is not supported.
Lettuce is cold in nature. It stabilizes the sensitive mind due to mental stress, and when a person with a stuffy chest and impatient personality eats it, the mind becomes comfortable and the mind clears. Lettuce contains a lot of folic acid, so it is recommended for pregnant women.
However, since lettuce is cold in nature, eating too much of it can cause coldness or make it worse, so you need to be careful. It is a good food for Soyangin and Taeyangin constitution, but it is desirable to eat moderately for Soeumin constitution with weak digestion or weak pulse.
Banana, relieves body heat and relieves constipation
Bananas lower the heat of people who have a lot of heat in the body, facilitate bowel movements, and detoxify. So, it relaxes the mind and body of many people who suffer from fever (symptoms of stuffy chest, fever, and thirst) or mental tension. It also has the effect of relieving constipation caused by excessive sweating.
Unripe banana juice exerted preventive or therapeutic effects on gastric ulcers induced by phenylbutazone in animal experiments. The gastric ulcer protective action is because 5-serotonin lowers stomach acid and banana relieves irritation. In addition, muscarine in bananas acts to inhibit fungi (fungi) and bacteria.
Bananas are cold-tempered fruits, so if you have a cold body or a cold stomach, eating a lot can cause stomach weakness or digestive problems. From a Sasang medical point of view, it fits well with the constitution of Soyangin or Taeyangin. In the case of Soeumin, it is desirable to eat a little after aging until black spots appear on the skin.
