Friendly reminder: If men consume nourishing recipes without any regularity, eating when they feel like it and skipping meals when they don't, it can easily lead to imbalanced nutrition and greatly reduce the effectiveness of the nourishing recipes. Men should also pay attention to having different meals. If the same nourishing recipe is consumed for a long time, it can cause excessive nutrients in some aspects and deficiencies in others, which is not conducive to the harmonization of yin and yang and the nourishment of essence, qi, and spirit in men.
