What diseases are people with cold blood prone to?

Blood cold is a diagnosis in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is a group of diseases with dysmenorrhea, scanty and dark-colored menstruation, heavy leucorrhea, and lower back pain and preference for warmth as the main symptoms. Generally speaking, patients with anemia and gastrointestinal diseases, those with nutritional deficiencies or hypothyroidism causing poor systemic or local blood circulation, or those with peripheral blood circulation disorders, will all suffer from cold hands and feet. Especially during women's menstrual period, pregnancy and postpartum period, they are more likely to have cold hands and feet due to physical weakness.

If the cold is not a very serious disease (it is generally not very serious and not unbearably cold), it can be prevented and self-regulated.

Strengthen physical exercise, especially for those who sit or stand for long periods of time. They must pay attention to work breaks and do more hand, foot and waist exercises to enhance blood circulation.

Pay attention to your diet and eat more warm foods to improve your body's resistance to cold. Common warm foods include: beef, mutton, chicken, garlic, pepper, ginger, onion, yam, longan, etc.

Diet therapy for cold blood

1. Stir-fried lamb with shredded ginger: Cut the lamb into thin slices. Cut the ginger into thin strips. Add a little oil to the pot and turn on high heat. When the oil starts to smoke, add the peppercorns and star anise and fry until fragrant. Add the shredded ginger and stir-fry briefly. Add the lamb slices and stir-fry. Add salt and MSG, and drizzle with sesame oil when serving.

2. Red Date and Wolfberry Lamb Soup: Cut the lamb into 8cm large pieces and blanch it in boiling water to remove the blood. Wash the jujubes and wolfberries and set aside. Add water to the pot, put in mutton, onion, ginger and star aniseed and cook together. When it is half cooked, add jujube, wolfberry and salt and continue cooking until cooked. If you don’t like the smell of mutton, you can add one or two slices of orange peel along with the dates to reduce the smell.

3. Roast the red pepper (choose the type of pepper according to your tolerance for spicy food) on the fire until it is almost burnt; fry the peanuts until crispy (sesame seeds are also fine); roast the scallions on the fire until the outer layer is burnt, then peel off the outer layer.

Crush the three ingredients separately in a mortar, then mix them together, add salt and MSG. This dish is the best for those who like spicy food and whole grains - the three-spice pepper is rolled into the pancake, and it is very satisfying to eat it in big mouthfuls. When eating the "Golden Tower" (steamed bread), smear the three-spice pepper into the holes of the steamed bread, which is also very enjoyable!
