After living a prosperous life, there will inevitably be a higher level of pursuit. According to Maslow's theory of needs, there are five levels of recognition needs.

It includes five categories: physiological needs, safety needs, love and belonging, respect and self-actualization, and is ranked from lower to higher needs.

Today's Wangjiazhuang villagers, after not worrying about money and material things at all, their needs have also begun to rise, until they have reached the highest level of demand - self-realization.

They begin to pay more attention to their joys and sorrows, and return to their hearts. To put it simply, you can do whatever you want!

For example, some old people have had a dream since childhood, and it would be great to go to Antienmen Square, to see the monument, to see Chairman Mao, to stand on the city gate tower, and then take a few photos and come back to show off!

Therefore, on the eve of this year's National Day, under the leading call of several elderly people in the village, a special tour group composed of all the elderly in Wangjiazhuang appeared.

More than 30 old men and old ladies wore uniformly made red vests, wore red sun hats, waved small flags printed with the words of Wangjiazhuang Sunset Red Tour Group, and climbed onto the shuttle bus in the words of their children and the reluctant tears of their little grandchildren.

A big golden dragon roared away, heading quickly towards the capital not far away, with a group of old people with this dream in mind, with Liu Jie, who was in love with adultery, and with the worries and envy of the villagers, they left without hesitation.

In addition to the new policy on poverty alleviation, the topic of the villagers in the past two days is this so-called dream journey. Sometimes, Wang Yong also admires these tourism practitioners very much.

From hearing an old man's nagging to himself and wanting to go to An Tianmen to see, wanting to see the chairman and his old man's house, to this tour group, it only took three days in total.

This efficiency, I don't have to choose!

After the autumn harvest holiday, Wang Yong, who had nothing to do, began to think about the meal at home. But it's definitely not as simple as being tight and delicious. People have begun to pursue food therapy and health preservation.

"Wang Yong, what are you going to eat for us tonight?"

Mrs. Ye smiled and looked at Wang Yong, who was wearing an apron and busy in the kitchen, very excited and a little eager to help.

"Grandma, can you just sit there and watch? We'll be able to have dinner later! ”

Wang Yong said without looking back, he only had this dish left, besides, how old is the old lady, how can she be willing to let her do it herself?

"What are we going to eat tonight?"

The old lady was not surprised by her grandson's refusal, but it did not prevent her from stretching her neck and leaning forward. I want to see what delicious food my grandson has prepared.

"Alright, alright! You are obedient and obedient, go and call them all over for dinner, and you're done! ”

"I'm not going, you haven't told me what we're going to eat today?"

For the old lady who was unwilling to stay by Wang Yong's side and looked at the steaming pot in front of him, Wang Yong was really speechless.

"Tonight, we're going to eat kelp! I prepared several dishes made with kelp. There are cold and hot, keep your favorite food! ”

"Kelp? Isn't that stuff all eaten cold? Hot? Can it, is it delicious? "The old lady originally wanted to say if you can eat hot kelp. Considering the face of his grandson, he quickly changed the topic.

has been questioned by others in what he is good at, even if the other party is your closest relative, this is not comfortable! What's more, Wang Yong has never been a master who can forbear.

"Grandma, you don't understand. Kelp is a treasure. Since ancient times, it has been called a longevity dish and a health dish! ”

Then, Wang Yong looked at the kelp stewed pork ribs in the pot. While telling the old lady about the therapeutic and health effects of kelp. These things, he checked the information for several days and sorted them out, and when he had the opportunity to show off, he immediately talked about them endlessly.

Kelp is so common on the seashore that it grows on most seashores in almost all parts of the country. However, the book says that this plant generally grows in low-temperature seawater, so it is not visible in the South China Sea.

It is a large-leaved algae plant, and some places call it kombu, which means like cloth. It is shaped like a flat ribbon and can reach up to 20 meters long!

Kelp is a vegetable with high nutritional value and at the same time has certain medicinal properties. It is rich in iodine and other mineral elements, from which edible iodine, alginate, mannitol and other industrial raw materials can be extracted.

Kelp is low in calories, medium in protein, and rich in various minerals required by the human body.

Sea vegetables, longevity vegetables, iodine-containing champions, etc., are covered on the head of kelp, which can also prove the nutritional value of kelp from another side.

Because kelp grows in seawater, it has a salty taste and a cold nature, and traditional Chinese medicine believes that it enters the liver, stomach and kidneys, and has the effect of eliminating phlegm and improving water.

At the same time, it is precisely because it grows in seawater that it itself has a strong ability to resist cold, and long-term consumption also has the effect of warming and replenishing kidney qi.

Research by scientific research institutions has proved that kelp contains carotene, B vitamins, iodine, calcium, iron, and other trace elements necessary for the human body.

The reputation of kelp is definitely not won by someone's hype and boasting, but by real skills.

Because of its high iodine content, kelp is considered to have the highest content of all vegetables in nature. Therefore, it is very effective in the prevention and treatment of iodine-deficient goiter, that is, large thick neck disease.

Kelp is also rich in selenium, an anti-cancer substance, which has a strong anti-cancer effect. Selenium is unfamiliar to everyone in Wangjiazhuang, and it is precisely because the land in the village is rare in the world that it is rich in selenium, which has created the prosperity and wealth of Wangjiazhuang today.

The kelp polysaccharides contained in kelp can activate macrophages, inhibit tumor cell proliferation and kill tumor cells, and can also directly inhibit tumor growth.

Both fucoidan and fucoidan in kelp have anticoagulant effects. Low molecular weight fucoidan not only has anticoagulant effect, but also antiviral, antithrombosis, antitumor, and immunity-enhancing effects.

It contains kelpin acid, potassium salt, and calcium elements that can dilate the peripheral blood vessels and reduce the body's absorption of cholesterol, so it can effectively prevent and treat hypertension.

Kelp starch can bring the fat out of the body in the intestines, so it has a good lipid-lowering effect, can help prevent arteriosclerosis and reduce cholesterol.

In addition, kelp also contains a large amount of polyunsaturated fatty acid EPA, which can reduce blood viscosity and reduce the occurrence of arteriosclerosis. Therefore, eating kelp regularly can also prevent cardiovascular diseases.

For example, eating kelp can delay the emptying of the stomach and the time for food to pass through the small intestine, which helps to control blood sugar, so eating kelp in diabetic patients can achieve certain therapeutic effects.

"Wow! Is there such a benefit to eating kelp? ”

Wang Liang, who didn't know when he would come back, had saliva on the corner of his mouth, stared at the steaming pot with wide eyes, looked greedy, and the old lady laughed heartily.

Wang Yong realized that before he knew it, everyone had come back to prepare for dinner. In addition to the family and the old lady's side, there were also uninvited guests today.

"Isn't it delicious for you to do this?"

To him, Wang Yongke is not polite at all. What's more, this one hasn't been to the door for a while, and this sudden appearance must be nothing to do without going to the Three Treasures Palace!

"It's not delicious, it's not delicious at all, you better go to the village and find a restaurant to eat." Anyway, I did it by head today, and you didn't say hello in advance, and you didn't do your part. ”

"Hehe, since that's the case, it's really good to taste!"

"How do you talk to your Uncle Biao? Hurry up and serve it on the table, what time is it, hurry up and eat! ”

Wang Hai glared at his eldest son Wang Yong, pulled Liu Biao into the house and prepared to eat. Except for Wang Liang, who made a grimace at his brother, everyone else entered the house one after another without looking at him.

"Shredded komweed!"

"Kelp tofu soup!"

"Roasted pork skin with kelp!"

"Kelp duck broth!"

"Crispy seaweed rolls!"

When the dishes made with kelp as the main or supplemented dishes were brought to the table, a group of people immediately stopped chatting and gossiping, and began to eat with chopsticks.

"Mom, your blood pressure has been a little high recently, this kelp stewed hairtail is specially prepared for you, nourishing the body, lowering blood lipids, lowering blood pressure, the effect is significant, you eat more."

After this meal, everyone was satisfied. This kind of delicious and healthy food with therapeutic effect immediately captured everyone's appetite.

Before the next day, the family spread this unique concept of food therapy and health care that night. It seems that in an instant, the farmers who have become wealthy have begun to pay attention to food therapy and health preservation.

Terms such as high blood pressure and diabetes began to appear frequently in the mouths of villagers. "Taboo" has become the most common word in everyone's mouth these days, how to eat in order to eat healthy and nutritious, all of a sudden let these farmers who have just become rich fall into it and enjoy themselves.

The University for the Elderly was the first to officially respond to Wang Yong's concept, and urgently contacted an old Chinese medicine doctor and a nutritionist to come over and start to introduce various health and dietary therapy knowledge to everyone.

The villagers' activity center also took action immediately, and under Liu Jie's remote control, they went directly to the Xinhua Bookstore and Book Building in the city to buy books with relevant content everywhere.

In response to everyone's request, several old men's cooking classes have also begun to teach more dishes with health care and therapeutic effects, such as various soups, various medicinal diets, etc., which are very popular.

The concept of health preservation has taken root in the hearts of Wangjiazhuang people all of a sudden, and no matter the elderly and children, they can say a few words of pharmacopoeia or a certain medical content or prescription written by an ancestor.

At the same time, traditional Chinese medicine, which was not very accepted by the local people in this era, quickly became popular in Wangjiazhuang, and became popular almost instantly. Because of this, it has attracted a lot of guys who want to fish in troubled waters and make a lot of money.

However, these bastards who want money and don't want to die, after being exposed by several old Chinese medicine doctors from the University for the Elderly five or six in a row, no one dares to come to Wangjiazhuang to abduct and defraud money. (To be continued.) )
