●Ginger: rich in shogaol, which can warm the body.

Gao Minmin reminds people with sensitive gastrointestinal tract not to eat spicy food on an empty stomach.

●Black pepper: The salt and pepper of black pepper can help drive away cold and keep warm, and can also help inhibit fat synthesis.

●Turmeric: Curcumin helps the body produce heat, improve metabolism, and is rich in iron, which can promote blood circulation.

●Garlic: Allicin helps promote blood circulation and increase metabolism.

Gao Minmin suggested that after crushing the garlic, wait 15 minutes before eating.

In addition, garlic can also be incorporated into cooking at ordinary times, such as garlic chicken soup, fried vegetables, etc., can be added with garlic.

●Chives: Chives are spicy ingredients that can help blood circulation.

In addition, not only people who are afraid of the cold, Gao Minmin also recommends people with cardiovascular disease and high blood pressure to eat leeks.

●Hot black tea: Theaflavins can promote energy metabolism and maintain body temperature.

In addition, studies have shown that after drinking hot black tea, body temperature drops more slowly, in other words, body temperature can be maintained for a longer period of time.

More than 70% cocoa: Gao Minmin said that although chocolate is a sweet food, but more than 70% chocolate candy is added less, and cocoa polyphenols can maintain body circulation, including caffeine and flavonoids, theobromine, and flavonoids It increases blood flow to the brain; theobromine helps regulate mood, so it’s okay to consume in moderation.

●Cinnamon: Cinnamaldehyde can help the body produce heat, increase body temperature, and promote body metabolism.

In addition to the above-mentioned 9 kinds of good heat-producing foods, Gao Minmin also reminded to avoid warm-up NG drinks, such as alcohol and strong coffee.

Because alcohol can cause blood vessels to dilate, it will be warm at first, but it will be colder after drinking; strong coffee is because too much coffee can easily cause blood vessels to constrict, and it is easy to make hands and feet colder.

Gao Minmin also reminded that you can imagine that the blood vessels in the human body are like an ocean of hundreds of rivers. Don’t think that it’s okay to eat fried, heavy flavors or sweets unscrupulously, because the long-term accumulation of metabolic waste on the blood vessel walls will cause the blood vessels to harden, age, and block early. One day, an irreparable tragedy may occur.

Therefore, we must pay more attention to our diet in order to survive the cold period safely.
