As the pace of life quickens, the stress people feel increases, and more and more people are in a sub-health state. Here are several types of targeted diets to regulate your own health for readers to choose from.
When suffering from insomnia, irritability, and forgetfulness: Eat more foods rich in calcium and phosphorus. Foods high in calcium include soybeans, milk (including yogurt), fresh oranges, and oysters; foods high in phosphorus include spinach, chestnuts, grapes, potatoes, and poultry eggs.
When nerves are sensitive: Eat steamed fish with some green leafy vegetables. Lie down and rest for a while before eating to relax tense emotions; you can also drink a small amount of red wine to help digestion.
When feeling exhausted: Chew some nuts like peanuts, almonds, cashews, and walnuts, as they are rich in protein, vitamin B, calcium, iron, and plant-based fats.
When eyes are fatigued: You can eat eel for lunch, as eel is rich in vitamin A. In addition, chive stir-fried with pork liver is also effective.
When the brain is fatigued: Eat nuts, such as peanuts, melon seeds, walnuts, pine nuts, and hazelnuts, with torreya nuts (a specialty of Zhejiang) being even better. They are very effective for brain health and enhancing memory.
When under excessive psychological stress: Try to consume as much vitamin C as possible, such as broccoli, spinach, tender rape, sesame, and fruits (citrus, orange, tangerine, strawberry, mango).
When in a bad mood: Eat dairy products like milk, yogurt, and cheese, as well as small dried fish, which are extremely rich in calcium and help to alleviate irritability; eat coriander to eliminate internal heat.
When memory is poor and you are forgetful: You should supplement with vitamins C and A, increase the amount of vegetables and fruits in your diet, and eat less acidic food like meat. Foods rich in vitamins C and A mainly include: fresh chili peppers (green or red are fine), dried fish, bamboo shoots, carrots, milk, red dates, river snails, and cabbage. Green tea also contains vitamin A, and drinking one cup a day (with two infusions) is also very beneficial for improving memory.
Tip: When a person is in a sub-health state, there are often multiple manifestations, so when choosing foods, you can select 2-3 types to complement each other for a better effect.
