After the Spring Festival, most people's bodies are experiencing a health "trough", which is mainly manifested by increased fatigue. The change of holiday schedule has brought our immunity to a low point, and various diseases are easy to "take advantage of".

An article published in the Cell magazine shows that with age, immunity will gradually weaken, and immunity is already at a low point after the holiday, which is easy to cause a greater health crisis, so we urgently need to improve our immunity at this time.

So, how do you quickly activate your own immunity?

Xiaofeng Emma found that having a complete set of immunity boosts that includes 3 kinds of foods** can perfectly solve post-holiday syndrome.

1 kind of vegetable, 4 times more immunity.

A 2011 study found that just eating more of it at the time of eating can boost immunity by 4 times.

According to the study, this vegetable contains a heat-stable protein that stimulates immunoglobulin production.

To put it simply, this active substance is not inactivated after cooking, and the research team found in follow-up experiments that cooking is even better than eating raw.

This vegetable that can increase immunity by 4 times is cabbage, and Xiaofeng Emma has also prepared a very simple cabbage recipe for everyone.

There is a food certified by Nature magazine, which can effectively reduce anxiety and depression and relieve mental stress after the holiday.

Stressed after the holidays? Drink some of it.

If you want to cope with post-holiday stress perfectly, you must not only self-regulate your emotions, but also work on your diet.

A new study published in Nature found that adding fermented foods to the diet can be effective in reducing anxiety.

Studies have also shown that 2-3 servings of fermented foods per day can be effective in relieving stress.

Xiaofeng emma:

Fermented foods include: yogurt, cheese, kimchi, sauerkraut, sauerkraut, tofu, steamed buns and steamed buns.

Emma recommends that you try homemade oat wine.

The wine is made with oat rice, which is fragrant and smooth, like yogurt, not too sweet. Oats are rich in prebiotics, which are fermented to produce a rich "spiritual probiotic", which can effectively combat mental stress after the holiday.

However, it should be noted that oat wine has an alcohol content, which is basically around 12-15 degrees, so don't drive if you eat it.

Homemade oat wine.

Ingredients: 500 grams of oats, 1 koji, appropriate amount of water.

Method] 1. Soak oat rice in water for 8 hours, add a little boiling water to cook after washing, simmer thoroughly, take it out and let it cool to about 30 degrees for later use; The koji is crushed into powder and set aside.

2. Spread a layer of oats in a pottery bowl, evenly sprinkle a layer of koji, preferably divided into 4 layers, finally, gently press and level with the handle of a rice spoon, press a hole in the center of the oats (this rice nest is for the convenience of observing the fermentation situation), sprinkle the last layer of koji, pour half a bowl of cold boiled water (or warm water) on the oats sprinkled with koji, and then sprinkle a layer of koji and seal it with plastic wrap.

3. After fermenting in a warm place for 1-2 days, observe that there is wine in the rice nest.
