Patient's question:
Because this year's unstable weather has caused my daughter to frequently catch colds and feel uncomfortable, and she often drinks medicine that isn't clear whether it's working well or not, my relative wants to find some recipes to help her supplement and also alleviate her cold and discomfort issues. After all, dietary therapy is better than taking medicine. What kind of vegetables are good for cold and discomfort?Doctor's answer:
Cough should consume more foods containing vitamin C, such as fruits and vegetables. Vitamin A can maintain the health of epithelial tissues and protect the respiratory mucosa. Foods rich in vitamin A include carrots, rapeseed, animal liver, and egg yolks. Pears have the effects of moistening the lungs, clearing the lungs, expelling phlegm, and reducing heat. Rock sugar stewed pears are most suitable for people with long-term cough due to lung heat. Eating more root vegetables in autumn can also help prevent colds and discomfort. They are also very good for people with poor digestion and stomach problems, as well as being a quality food for those with stomach disease and heart disease.
