Warming Remedies: Beat Cold Hands and Feet with Dietary Solutions

November 28, 2023

During the menstrual, pregnancy, and childbirth periods, women are more prone to having cold hands and feet due to physical weakness. In the field of medicine, prolonged and frequent cold hands and feet can be referred to as "cold syndrome". If the cold syndrome is not severe, it can be prevented and self-regulated. Below, I recommend several dietary remedies for warming hands and feet for female friends:

Sautéed lamb with ginger: Slice the lamb into thin pieces, cut the ginger into fine shreds. Add a small amount of oil to the pan, heat it on high flame, and when the oil smokes, add Sichuan peppercorn and star anise to fry until fragrant. Then add the shredded ginger and stir-fry, followed by the lamb slices. Add salt and monosodium glutamate, and drizzle sesame oil before serving.

Jujube and goji berry lamb soup: Cut the lamb into large pieces and blanch in boiling water to remove blood water. Wash the jujube and goji berries. Add water to the pot, put in the lamb, green onions, ginger, and star anise to cook. When half-cooked, add jujube, goji berries, and salt to cook until done. If you don't like the gamy taste of lamb, you can add a few pieces of orange peel with jujube to reduce the gamy taste.

Three-flavored chili: Red chili pepper (choose the variety according to your spicy preference), roast it on the fire until almost charred. Roast peanuts until crispy (sesame seeds can also be used). Roast scallions on the fire until the outer layer is charred, and peel off the outer layer. Crush each of the three ingredients separately, then mix them together, add salt and monosodium glutamate, and it is ready to eat.

In addition, women who are sensitive to cold should also consume more warm and hot foods to improve their cold tolerance. Common warm and hot foods include beef, lamb, dog meat, chicken, garlic, chili peppers, ginger, spring onions, Chinese yam, and longan, etc.
