Lu Lao emphasized the importance of regulating the spleen and stomach in curing the disease and saving the others. Lu has a habit of sticking to it for more than 40 years, that is, eating ginger.
ginger is not only our daily condiment, but also a good medicine. Ginger flavour, mild temperature, into the spleen, stomach, lung, with sweat and solution, warm in the vomit, cough, antidote, detoxification effect, can treat cold and cold, stomach cold stomach pain, vomiting and diarrhea, fish and crab poisoning, its most prominent role is to regulate the spleen and stomach.
traditional Chinese medicine thinks that the spleen and stomach include the whole digestive system of the human body. The function of the spleen and stomach is to turn the water valley into Qi and blood and transport it to all parts of the body so that the five viscera can run normally. Once the spleen and stomach are weakened, the digestion and absorption of nutrients will be poor, and the whole body will be affected. Because of this, Chinese medicine says spleen and stomach are the "acquired foundation" of human beings. Ginger can make the spleen and stomach healthy, and the Qi and blood biochemistry is sufficient. The human body will remain in good condition.
from the 70s of last century, ginger's shadow is indispensable to Lu's breakfast table every day.

as the saying goes, "eat radish in summer, eat ginger in summer, do not labor doctor prescribe", summer is the most suitable to eat ginger in summer. In autumn, the weather is dry, dry air hurts the lungs, and spicy ginger is eaten. It is easy to hurt the lungs, so it is not suitable to eat ginger in the autumn.
