孩子就像幼苗一样，施肥过度会损伤根部，浇水太多会淹没苗叶，冷冻太过会伤害生机，松土太勤会伤根。对孩子来说，这个根就是脾胃。

Children are like young seedlings. Overfertilization can damage the roots, watering too much can submerge the leaves, freezing too much can damage vitality, and loosening the soil too frequently can damage the roots. For children, this root is the spleen and stomach.

其实，气血虚的人养生的根本也是脾胃，它是气血生化的源头，是后天之本。

In fact, the fundamental health preservation for people with qi and blood deficiency is also the spleen and stomach, which is the source of qi and blood biochemistry and the foundation of postnatal development.

如今我们的生活太过匆忙，早餐和午餐随便应付，晚餐却又丰盛又晚。经常边吃饭边赶时间，吃饭时回信息、看新闻、思考问题也是常态，气血都用来应付我们的各种需求，脾胃怎么能好呢？

Nowadays, our lives are too rushed. Breakfast and lunch can be easily arranged, but dinner is sumptuous and late. Often rushing to eat while rushing, responding to messages, watching news, and thinking about problems during meals is also normal. Qi and blood are used to meet our various needs, how can the spleen and stomach be good?

不如学学孩子，好好吃饭，把气血还给脾胃。

It's better to learn from children, eat well, and return qi and blood to the spleen and stomach.

增加早餐的质量，减少晚餐和零食的摄入。早餐在 7 到 9 点胃经当令的时候，认真慢慢吃，吃温暖好消化的食物。

Increase the quality of breakfast and reduce the intake of dinner and snacks. Breakfast is served from 7 to 9 when the stomach meridian is in full swing. Eat warm and easily digestible food carefully and slowly.

早晨喝一碗五谷杂粮粥，对脾胃的补养最为纯粹。五谷杂粮多为种子，滋养脾肾气血的能量更足。

In the morning, a bowl of Congee with grains and cereals is the purest tonic for the spleen and stomach. Grains and miscellaneous grains are mostly seeds, which nourish the spleen, kidneys, qi, and blood with more energy.

减少甜腻、油腻难消化的食物，减少零食的摄入量，晚餐要简单，吃七分饱。少吃生冷寒凉的食物，以免损失脾胃阳气和生机。

Reduce sweet and greasy foods that are difficult to digest, reduce the intake of snacks, have a simple dinner, and eat 70% full. Eat less raw and cold food to avoid losing the yang energy and vitality of the spleen and stomach.

不要盲目信奉 “多喝水少生病” 的理念，每个人对水的需求量不一样，渴了就小口慢饮，不要一口气猛灌，否则会伤脾胃生湿气。

Don't blindly believe in the concept of "drinking more water and getting sick less". Everyone has different needs for water. When thirsty, drink slowly in small sips instead of pouring it all at once, otherwise it will damage the spleen and stomach and produce dampness.

生病的时候不要过度使用药物，特别是清热寒凉的药物，病情好转就应停止，否则会伤脾胃伤元气。

When you are sick, do not overuse drugs, especially those that clear heat and cool the body. If the condition improves, it should be stopped, otherwise it will damage the spleen and stomach and the vitality.

消化不好时，不要过度依赖消食之物，就像给幼苗过度松土会伤根一样，应该想办法提升脾胃自主的消化功能。

When digestion is poor, do not overly rely on digestive products, just like how loosening the soil too much on seedlings can damage their roots. Instead, find ways to improve the digestive function of the spleen and stomach independently.

平时可以多吃些芡实、莲子、怀山药、白扁豆、大枣等，都是补脾胃的好食材，可以用来煮粥、煲汤、煮水喝。

Usually, you can eat more fruit of Gorgon Euryale, lotus seeds, yams, white lentils, dates, etc., which are good ingredients for tonifying the spleen and stomach, and can be used to cook Congee, soup, and water.
