In the autumn season, it is very important to monitor the food we eat. Since at this time we are often faced with colds and vitamin deficiency. To reduce the risk of disease, it is necessary to take all the most useful from the autumn gifts.
Complex carbohydrates. In autumn, the body is in dire need of carbohydrates and polysaccharides, since they are the providers of energy, and also contribute to the correct metabolism. Unlike simple carbohydrates, complex carbohydrates are absorbed much more slowly, which means they do not increase blood sugar levels. The most important representatives are: cereals, vegetables, fruits and always greens. Also, these products contain fiber, which helps to remove toxins from the body.
We strengthen the immune system. On the eve of winter, you just need to deal with immunity, otherwise the flu and acute respiratory infections will attack you. Particular attention should be paid to the condition of the gastrointestinal tract. An important cause of decreased immunity is the problem of constipation. To avoid this situation, eat bran bread, add bran to any dishes and pastries, eat more cabbage and carrot salads. It is also necessary to drink a glass of medium-fat kefir at room temperature every day at night.
We improve the mood. Everyone needs to regularly replenish their stores of tryptophan, an amino acid that is essential for the production of the happiness hormone serotonin. The largest amounts of tryptophan are found in cocoa and bananas. The systematic use of cocoa stimulates mental activity, improves vitality, and improves mood. Bananas lower blood pressure, improve complexion, and most importantly, relieve stress.
