  • Four Kinds of Best Foods in Autumn
  • First, the best nut--peanut
    The content of protein in peanut kernel is up to 26 %, which is two times of that in wheat. What's more, it is easily absorbed by the body. Peanut contains 40% of fat, in which the unsaturated fatty acids account for more than 80%. The nutritional value of peanut is higher than that of the grains and it can be comparable with eggs, milk, meat and some other animal foods.

    Cooked peanut not only is easy to digest and absorb, but also plays an important role in health care. Peanut can inhibit the dissolution of fibrin, promote the neogenesis of platelets, strengthen the contracting function of the capillaries, treat thrombocytopenia, prevent the hemorrhagic disease, etc. What's more, peanut also has the effects of lowering blood pressure and adjusting cholesterol.

    The best vegetable: lotus root
    During the autumn, the weather is very dry, so eating some lotus root can play the role of replenishing the vital essence and removing heat, moistening the dryness and quenching the thirst, as well as purifying the heart and soothing the nerves.

What's more, yellow wine also contains abundant functional oligosaccharides, which can improve the immunity and the resistance against disease of human body. This function of yellow rice wine is incomparable by grape wine or beer.

    The best fruit: pear
