WARMING FOODS FOR WINTER CHILLS
In traditional Chinese medicine it is said there are foods
for every body type. If you are always feeling cold then you should eat warming
foods. But for those who constantly feel hot or warm they should eat cooling
foods. Eating the right type of foods for your body brings balance and
continuous wellness.
These extremely cold January
days have been challenging for most, so I have decided to share these lists to
support you in being surrounded by the warmth of the foods you eat.
Use these suggestions to plan your complete meals. Begin
with hot cereal for breakfast, made from oatmeal or even perhaps quinoa, which
is very high in protein. Prepare a hot soup for lunch, perhaps a fish broth
with vegetables and spices, or a bean and vegetable soup with glutinous rice
added for a heavier meal. There are a wide variety of ingredients that you will
be able to choose from. Balance your protein with vegetables and drink hot teas
throughout your day.
