Now this season is really cool down, stew more nourishing soup to prepare elders for the coming autumn and winter. Boiler soup, also known as Laohuo soup, is a common dish in Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and even mainland China. In autumn and winter, the climate is dry and the ground is wet, so people like to drink the old soup with nourishing and tonic effect. Usually, vegetable, meat or medicinal materials are boiled for hours in pressure cookers, electronic stews, steel pots or casseroles. Laohuo decoction has the effects of skin care, heart care, eyesight, bile-lowering and bone-strengthening. As for the soup materials, yam, lotus root, carrot and other materials can be used as soup materials. Different materials can achieve different results, the so-called "autumn health" because of less rain in autumn, dry weather, the human body easily delayed the occurrence of "autumn dryness" on the false fire; easy to lead to body fluid deficiency, such as less fluid deficiency, "dryness", such as dry skin, cough. The key to prevent autumn dryness is dietary conditioning. Appropriate choices include pears, sugarcane, water chestnuts, lilies and tremella, which can moisten the lungs, clear the dryness and nourish yin and nourish the body. As for the proper medicinal materials, they also have the effect of preventing autumn dryness, so the autumn health preservation is not less than a good pot of soup.

Do you think that the best way to absorb soup is to drink soup before meals or after meals? "Drink soup before meals, slim and healthy", "Drink soup after meals, the more fat you drink". This has a certain reason. Before eating, drinking soup is equivalent to adding lubricant to the gastrointestinal tract. Drinking soup from time to time during the meal helps dilute and stir the food, and is beneficial to the absorption and digestion of the food by the gastrointestinal tract. At the same time, drink soup before eating, so that the stomach part is full, can reduce the intake of staple food, avoid excessive intake of energy. Drinking soup after meals can easily lead to overnutrition.
Tips
