Food therapy in Autumn
The autumn season is the time to take care of lung Qi; grief and sadness can affect lung health. While in autumn, people can naturally have feelings of isolation and sadness.
But there are five seasonal foods used as herbs in autumn to nourish Lung Qi:
1. Bai Luo Bu (White dakon)
2. Shan Yao (Chinese yam)
3. Asian Pear
4. Bai He (White lily)
5. Lian Ou (Lotus root)
If you can not find these foods, you can eat more white-colored food to support Lung Qi; warm soupy food/teas are also good for lung health in autumn.
May you have a healthy and happy Autumn!
