Healthy Dumplings
Overview
The Winter Solstice is a great time to take care of your health, mainly because Qi begins at the Winter Solstice. Because starting from winter, life activities begin to change from prosperity to decline, from movement to stillness. At this time, scientific health maintenance can help ensure strong energy, prevent premature aging, and achieve the purpose of prolonging life. During the winter solstice, the diet should be diverse, with a reasonable mix of grains, fruits, meats, and vegetables, and appropriate selection of high-calcium foods. Food should be light and heavy, fatty and salty foods should not be eaten. In winter, Yang Qi is declining, and the spleen likes warmth and hates cold, so it is advisable to eat warm foods to protect the spleen and kidneys. It is advisable to eat small amounts and frequent meals. It should be noted that there are three more and three less, that is, more protein, vitamins, and fiber, and less sugar, fat, and salt. In our north, on the winter solstice of the lunar calendar every year, dumplings are an essential holiday meal for everyone, rich or poor. As the saying goes: On October 1st, when the winter solstice arrives, every household eats dumplings.
