What to do for anemic women
In winter, when women become anemic, various symptoms become particularly evident. In the cold winter, the blood vessels on our skin surface contract, and the speed of blood circulation slows down. Women who are anemic already have less blood, so it will circulate even slower. What is the most effective way for women to supplement blood in winter?
Red beans are neutral in nature and have the effects of invigorating the spleen, promoting diuresis, clearing heat and dampness, reducing swelling, and detoxifying. Red beans are especially suitable for women because they are rich in iron and have a blood-supplementing effect. Brown sugar is warm in nature and enters the spleen, and it has the functions of invigorating qi, nourishing blood, invigorating the spleen, warming the stomach, relieving pain, promoting blood circulation, and dispelling stasis. Red dates are rich in calcium and iron, making them a good choice for iron supplementation and blood nourishment. When these three types of foods are combined, they can increase iron intake and improve the body's cold resistance.
The specific method is to take 250 grams of red beans, 15-20 red dates, and an appropriate amount of brown sugar. Wash the red beans, remove impurities, and soak them for two hours. Wash the red dates and remove the pits. In a pot, add the red dates, red beans, and about 600 milliliters of water, then add the brown sugar. Bring to a boil over high heat, maintain a boiling state for about half a minute, then reduce the heat. Simmer until the red beans are cooked, and then it can be consumed. It is worth reminding that the sugar content in the "Three Red Soup" is relatively high, so it is not suitable for women with diabetes, bloating, or hot constitution.
