TCM Food Tip: Eat with the season
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, fall is associated with the Lung system and is a time to shift away from the cooling foods of summer toward foods that are warmer, cooked, and nourishing.
🥣 Think soups, stews & roasted vegetables
As temperatures cool, warm cooked meals can be easier on digestion and help support the body through the seasonal transition.
🍐 Enjoy seasonal foods
Pears, apples, squash, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, cabbage, leeks, onions, garlic, ginger, oats, rice, beans, and lentils are wonderful additions to a fall diet.
🌿 Add warming herbs & spices
Fresh ginger, cinnamon, scallions, garlic, rosemary, thyme, basil, and cardamom can bring warmth and flavor to fall meals and teas.
☕ Trade some iced drinks for warm tea
Ginger tea, cinnamon tea, or warm water with lemon can be a simple seasonal change as the weather gets cooler.
In Chinese medicine, food is part of medicine. Eating with the seasons is one of the simplest ways we can support digestion, energy, and overall wellness throughout the year.
🍁 Fall is also a great time for acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine as we prepare for cold & flu season.
