As an experienced doctor, I have a deep understanding and love for Chinese medicine. As a treasure of Chinese culture, traditional Chinese medicine carries thousands of years of medical wisdom of the Chinese nation. However, in modern society, the popularity of Chinese medicine is not high, and many people's understanding of Chinese medicine is still at the stage of "grassroots doctors".
In order to better promote the popularization of Chinese medicine and let more people appreciate the charm of Chinese medicine, I would like to discuss the topic of walnuts.
As a nutritious food, walnuts are widely regarded as having brain-strengthening, intellectual, and beauty effects. Recently, however, some people believe that walnuts are vascular scavengers that can remove garbage and toxins from blood vessels, while others believe that walnuts are a life-booster that increases the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. So, is a walnut a vascular scavenger or a life talisman?
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, walnuts are sweet in taste and warm in nature, and belong to the kidneys, lungs, and large intestine meridians. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that walnuts have the effects of tonifying the kidneys and strengthening essence, warming the lungs and relieving asthma, and moistening the intestines and laxatives. Modern medical research has also shown that walnuts are rich in unsaturated fatty acids, proteins, vitamin E and other nutrients, which have important benefits for human health.
Moderate consumption of walnuts can lower cholesterol, improve blood circulation, and prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
However, any food should be consumed in moderation, and excessive intake of any one food may cause negative effects on the body. Walnuts are high in fat and calories, and if consumed in excess, they can lead to excessive calorie intake and increase the risk of chronic diseases such as obesity and hyperlipidemia. In addition, walnuts have a high fat content, and if you consume too much, it will affect your digestive function and cause uncomfortable symptoms such as diarrhea.
So, should walnuts be eaten in the morning or at night? In fact, there is no fixed answer to this question, because everyone's physical condition and eating habits are different. Generally speaking, the morning is the time when the body's metabolism is at its most vigorous, and eating walnuts at this time can better absorb the nutrients in it. Eating walnuts at night can play a role in calming the nerves and helping them sleep.
But no matter what time walnuts are consumed, they should be consumed in moderation and not in excess.
In conclusion, walnuts are a nutritious food, and eating them in moderation is good for the body.
