Let’s follow the editor to learn more about it. Various festivals and solar terms are wonderful. Mr. Shui Mo has compiled the lunar April for you to let you know the lunar calendar information about the God of Wealth and the God of Joy every day in April.What is the Grain Full solar term?Grain Full is one of the 24 solar terms and the second solar term in summer. It means that the grains of summer crops have begun to fill with juice but are not yet mature. It is only the Xiaoman stage, not the Daman stage. Grain Full Moon occurs when the sun reaches 60° of the ecliptic longitude between May 20 and 22 every year.During Grain Full, the grains of summer crops have begun to become full but are not yet mature, so it is called Grain Full. The Grain Full season is suitable for "eating bitterness" and "tasting new things". Bitter vegetables are eaten during the Grain Full season. In ancient my country, Grain Full was divided into three stages: "The first stage is the growth of bitter vegetables; the second stage is the death of all grasses; the third stage is the arrival of wheat harvest." In the Book of Zhou, there is a saying that "bitter vegetables bloom on the day of Grain Full." What fruits are best to eat during Xiaoman?Tomato is the best sun protection food. Tomatoes are rich in the antioxidant lycopene. Consuming 16 mg of lycopene per day can reduce the risk of sunburn by 40%.Cooked tomatoes are more effective than raw ones. It would be more effective to eat some potatoes or carrots at the same time, as the beta-carotene in them can effectively block UV rays. Watermelon The water content of watermelon is second to none among fruits, so it is particularly suitable for replenishing the loss of water in the human body. In addition, it also contains a variety of amino acids with skin physiological activity, which are easily absorbed by the skin and have good effects on moisturizing, nourishing, sun-protecting and whitening the facial skin. Lemon is rich in vitamin C, which can promote metabolism, slow down aging, whiten and lighten spots, shrink pores, soften the cuticle and make the skin shiny. According to research, lemons can reduce the incidence of skin cancer. Just one spoonful of lemon juice a week can reduce the incidence of skin cancer by 30%. Oranges are rich in vitamin C and vitamin P, which can enhance the body's resistance, increase the elasticity of capillaries, lower blood cholesterol, prevent and treat high blood pressure and arteriosclerosis, and ensure good health in summer. Kiwi contains VC, VE, VK and other vitamins. It is a low-fat food rich in nutrients and dietary fiber, and has unique effects on weight loss, bodybuilding and beauty. Kiwi fruit contains antioxidants that can enhance the body's immune function. Loquat "Grain Full Loquats are in full bloom." Among seasonal fruits, loquat is probably the only one that is available at the right time. Loquat is a fruit that is highly seasonal and only available on the market for a short time, so if you want to eat it you must seize the opportunity. Many cough syrups contain loquat ingredients because loquat contains amygdalin, which can moisten the lungs, relieve coughs, and eliminate phlegm, treating various coughs. When choosing loquats, be careful not to choose those that are too big or too small. Loquats that are too big often do not have enough sugar content, while those that are too small will be sour. The fruit should be symmetrical in appearance. The hairs on the skin are intact. If the hairs fall off, it means the loquat is not fresh enough. In addition, if the surface color varies in depth, it means that the loquat is likely to have gone bad. Another delicious fruit that makes people drool is lychee. Litchi is mainly produced in the south and is known as the "king of fruits". Bai Juyi once praised lychee for its taste that seemed to be from heaven and its fragrance that was out of this world. "Lychee tastes sweet and sour, and is warm in nature. It enters the spleen and liver meridians. In addition, lychee has the effects of nourishing the spleen and blood, promoting fluid production and quenching thirst, regulating qi and relieving pain. It is suitable for stomachache, abdominal pain, diarrhea caused by deficiency and cold; stomachache, abdominal pain, and hiccups caused by qi stagnation." People with heat syndrome or yin deficiency and excess fire should avoid eating it. When selecting lychees, you can first pinch them gently in your hands. Good lychees should feel firm and elastic. From the outside, the color of fresh lychees is generally not very bright. If the cracks on the lychee shell are flat and the seams are obvious, the taste is sweet. Cherry, loquat, bayberry and cherry are collectively known as the "Three Sisters of Early Summer Fruit". Cherry contains sugar, citric acid, carotene, vitamin C, iron and other ingredients. In particular, the iron content is the highest among fruits. The carotene content is 5 times higher than that of apples and grapes. It is very beneficial for preventing and treating anemia and protecting the eyes. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it is sweet, sour and slightly warm in nature, and can strengthen the spleen and stomach, nourish the liver and kidneys, nourish the blood and beautify the skin, strengthen the muscles and bones, promote fluid production and quench thirst, and astringe semen to stop diarrhea. When choosing, be sure to pick fruits that are plump and look healthy, and avoid overripe fruits with spots. Some elderly people buy cherries that are about to rot in order to save a little money. It is better not to eat them as they are nutritious. Bayberry In the hot summer, it is inevitable that you have a poor appetite and don’t want to eat. Bayberry can help you improve your appetite. Bayberry contains a variety of organic acids and a large amount of vitamin C. We all know that bayberry tastes a bit sour. Sour things can promote appetite and enhance gastrointestinal digestion. Therefore, eating bayberry can increase the acidity in the stomach, digest food and promote appetite. Bayberry pulp is very rich in fiber, which can stimulate intestinal peristalsis and facilitate the excretion of toxins in the body, thus having the effect of detoxification and beauty. Bayberry is a seasonal fruit in warm summer weather. Some people will develop oral ulcers if they eat too much bayberry. Don't be fooled by the sweetness of bayberry. It turns out that bayberry contains a lot of acid. People with excessive stomach acid can easily damage the gastric mucosa after eating it, causing acid reflux, belching, and even esophageal burns. Rinsing your mouth after eating bayberry can protect your teeth. Green Plum Early summer is the world of green plum, which contains a variety of natural high-quality organic acids and rich minerals. It has unique nutritional and health functions such as purifying blood, regulating intestines, lowering blood lipids, eliminating fatigue, beautifying, regulating acid-base balance, and enhancing human immunity. However, fresh green plums are sour and astringent and generally cannot be eaten directly. They need to be processed before consumption. The most famous of these is green plum wine. How to make green plum wine? It's very simple. Place green plums in rice wine and heat them. The green plums will change color slightly. Drink a sip while it is hot. The sour and sweet taste of the plums will spread with the aroma of the wine, making you feel relaxed and happy. This is the legendary green plum wine. You can also squeeze the green plum juice and mix it directly with the wine for drinking. Plum acid, together with wine, not only adds flavor but also slows down the process of getting drunk. Plums Plums are an indispensable fruit in summer. Slightly sour plums are rich in vitamin C. Since 85% of plums are water, they help relieve hunger and thirst and make people feel full, making them an ideal weight loss food. Plums are also rich in dietary fiber, which helps gastrointestinal motility and bowel movements and reduces constipation. Plums contain high amounts of fruit acid. Eating too much can damage the spleen and stomach. Excessive consumption can easily cause stomach pain. Patients with ulcers and acute or chronic gastroenteritis should avoid eating plums. Eating too much can easily cause phlegm and dampness, damage the spleen and stomach, and damage the teeth. Therefore, people with spleen deficiency, phlegm and dampness and children should not eat too much.
