Eat carrots in winter to protect lungs
When winter arrives, lung health is challenged. Northerners like to hide in the room, the air is dry and not circulate; while the cold weather in the south, the air is damp, weak people are vulnerable to cold stimulation, causing upper respiratory tract infection - these can cause lung discomfort. Professor Xue Hanrong, deputy chief physician of respiratory medicine at the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, told the “Life Times†reporter that winter is a period of high incidence of lung diseases, and bronchitis, pneumonia, and asthma will be aggravated. Most people often experience symptoms such as cough and chest pain. This season, it is particularly important to protect the health of the lungs. There is a convenient and cheap way to protect the lungs - eat more carrots. Most of the lungs are "injured" because the bronchial mucosa is damaged, and vitamin A can protect the mucosal cells and maintain its normal morphology and function. It can also prevent the mucous membranes from being harmed by bacteria, which is very helpful in maintaining the health of the lungs. Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which can be decomposed into vitamin A in the human body. It can be said that carrots are the best vegetables for vitamin A supplementation. Therefore, eating a carrot every day for a long time can protect the respiratory system, especially the lungs. In addition, Professor Li Liangxue of the Food Hygiene Supervision and Inspection Institute of the Ministry of Health pointed out that β-carotene is sensitive to light and oxygen, and that long-term sunlight exposure will oxidize and decompose, so it is best to eat once the carrot is done. Do not expose it to the air for a long time. In addition, β-carotene is a fat-soluble substance, so carrots used for frying, stewing, and roasting are good ways to eat. disposable face mask, kn95 , face mask, mask , Face Shield, goggle disposable face mask, kn95, face mask, mask Dongguan Marvec Electronic Technology Co.,Ltd , http://www.marvec-cn.com
