打造溫暖體質的溫薑汁與擇食雞湯 / Warm Ginger Water & Chinese Health-Preserving Chicken Soup Recipe

濕疹好了、便秘改善了、水腫消了、臉瘦了一點。還有除了生理期無感之外，皮膚竟然變好了!!!

偶然聽聞朋友介紹一位中醫師寫的養生書籍，對於當時被免疫系統失調、濕疹纏身、看過無數次中西醫都治不好的我，聽到各種養生方法，都想來試試。上網搜尋後，發現邱錦伶醫師曾是北京同仁堂諮詢師，也是明星天后蔡依林、舒淇的養生顧問; 其兩本著作 “擇食聖經”和”瘦孕聖經”似乎廣受好評，輸入關鍵字 “擇食雞湯” 可以看到超多網友分享的食譜。照著書上的部分食補方法實踐了一個月，濕疹好了、便秘改善了、水腫消了、臉瘦了一點!!再回到大醫院抽血檢查，竟然無大礙! 最神奇的是，生理期間毫無感覺! 完全沒有痛感!!! 最有感的還有，皮膚變好了(每天補充天然的膠原蛋白阿!)，好幾個朋友都有發現 (應該不是拍馬屁之類的場面話)。所以決定來分享這神奇的食譜。

打造溫暖的體質，遠離過敏、減緩孕期不適!

根據書裡的說法，打造溫暖體質，可以改善過敏症狀; 備胎的人如果擁有溫暖體質，也能幫助胚胎健康成長，而且懷孕期間的不適症狀也會減緩。只要調整每天三餐的飲食，用食療來預防或復原身體機能，是最簡單又健康的方式了。但是對於上班族、外食族、或是懶人來說，要嚴格執行書裡的指引，可能會有點困難。所以我只挑了溫薑汁和擇食雞湯，其他的忌口食物，只能盡量少吃，畢竟少了麻辣和炸物的人生還是有點無趣。在周末時，先準備好一週份量的薑汁和雞湯，要飲用時直接在薑汁加熱水、微波雞湯即可，每天早上起床先空腹喝溫薑汁，擇食雞湯取代奶茶當作早餐，習慣了也不會覺得麻煩，料理新手也能上手!

Few months ago, I suffered from immune dysfunction and allergy. I could not sleep well and felt terrible, even I went to doctor and took different medicines. However, my friend told me the diet therapy from a chinese physician. The chinese physician is famous as a consultant for many celebrities. After trying the recipe for 1 month, it was amazed that my immune system is getting better and I feel healthier, allergy disappeared, constipation relieved, edema reduced, and I did not have bad cramps on my period. It is because in traditional chinese medical opinion, a cold body constitution will cause inflammation. With a warm constitution, you probably won’t have disease. What’s more, pregnant women won’t feel uncomfortable in the duration of pregnancy. The magical recipe includes the warm ginger water and chinese health-preserving chicken soup. Have the ginger water before breakfast and the chicken soup in breakfast every morning, your body constitution will get warmer and healthier.
