In ancient China, there was the concept of health preservation, and many ancient medical books have recorded the way of health preservation. One of the most famous is the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic, which records not only many prescriptions for curing diseases and saving lives, but also some basic health-preserving methods. Among them, it says "five grains for nourishing" and "five fruits for helping", which is very similar to today's concept of dietary health. What kind of fruits are the "five fruits" mentioned by the ancients?

Although the ancient times was based on farming, it did not have such advanced agricultural technology in modern society, so the varieties of ancient fruits were far less abundant than they are now. Therefore, what the ancients called "five fruits" is the most common fruit in today's society. They are jujube, plum, apricot, chestnut and peach. Most people have eaten them. These fruits are quite in line with the four seasons, apricot, plum and peach are spring and summer fruits, jujube and chestnut are autumn and winter fruits, which can meet people's fruit needs of the four seasons.

These five kinds of fruits are considered to correspond to the five internal organs in the "internal organs" of the human body. Jujube taste sweet, corresponding to spleen, plum sour, corresponding to liver, bitter almonds, corresponding to heart, salty chestnuts, corresponding to kidney, hot peaches, corresponding to lungs. Therefore, there is still a certain reason for the ancients to classify these five kinds of fruits as "five fruits". Now that people's living standards have improved, they can eat a variety of different fruits, which are not as valued as they were in ancient times, which is actually a pity.

Especially in spring and summer, these three kinds of fruits are now in peak season, and there are many in the countryside. Plum trees, peach trees and apricot trees have been planted by many farmers. they are easy to grow and have high yields, and what they can't finish can be sold for money. However, when eating, you should pay attention to "five fruits for help", which means assistance. You can't eat it as a meal. Eating a small amount of fruit will be better for your health.

Of course, in this season, in addition to plums, apricots, peaches, there are watermelons, melons and other fruits on the market, eat some properly after meals can not only relieve the heat but also maintain good health, do you like to eat?
