抗秋燥飲食秘笈
秋風送爽讓人感到舒暢無比，但隨之而來的是咽乾喉涸、聲音沙啞、皮膚乾燥甚至咳嗽，這也是乾燥氣候在作怪 。中醫理論認為過份乾燥就會成為燥邪，燥能抽乾身體裡的津液，令身體失於濡潤，出現燥熱症狀，是為「秋燥」。要減少秋燥對身體的影響，可以從飲食方面入手，透過以下兩招抗秋燥大法，挑選合適食物以調整身體機能。
第一招 潤肺養陰
肺主秋，秋天之氣與肺臟相通，中醫所指的肺臟，還包括呼吸道、水份代謝及免疫力等等，肺臟「上通鼻竅，外合皮毛」，燥邪可以從鼻和皮膚入侵，「燥邪傷人，容易耗人津液」，所以在秋天我們的鼻、氣管、喉嚨、肺、皮膚容易出毛病。想紓緩秋燥帶來的不適，除了多喝水補濕外，更重要是潤肺養陰，多進食具潤肺生津、養陰潤燥功效的食材，例如雪梨、雪耳、花旗參、百合、芝麻、蜂蜜、枇杷、石斛、杏仁、海底椰、玉竹、沙參等。
第二招 減辛增酸
秋天空氣濕度下降，人體水份加快蒸發，容易引致口乾、咽喉腫痛、咳嗽、便秘等症狀，所以要避免進食辛辣、烤炸食物，以免加速耗損身體津液，加重秋燥。亦要避免進食耗散陽氣的食物，例如薑、蔥、蒜、辣椒等辛辣發散之物。
秋天宜多吃「酸」，酸味食物有收斂、止澀的功效，配合秋天收斂氣之餘，酸味食物亦能刺激人體分泌更多津液，以達到潤燥的目的，不妨多吃橙、檸檬、柚子、葡萄、石榴、士多啤梨、番茄等酸性食物，紓緩秋燥不適。
