北芪党参炖羊肉
用料：羊腿肉500克，北芪、党参、姜片各25克，黑枣10颗。
制法：羊腿肉切成5大块，放入沸水锅焯3分钟，捞起用清水冲洗；放入炖锅内，将生姜片铺在羊肉上；黑枣洗净去核，与北芪、党参同入炖锅内，加沸水250毫升，加盖隔水用小火炖1小时，食用时用精盐调味即可。
特点：羊肉温补，益精，北芪、党参有补气血，驱风寒，活血脉的功效，是畏寒者、体弱者最合适的滋补品。
党参的主要功效是补气。最宜用于平素倦怠乏力、精神不振。语音低沉、自觉气短、稍一活动就喘促的肺气虚弱者。侧重于脾胃气虚的人，四肢无力，食欲不振，大便稀溏，也宜使用党参。常用党参与白术、茯苓、炙甘草配伍，这就是补气健脾的著名方剂四君子汤。肺气与脾气都虚的，又宜用党参与黄芪、白术、茯苓、陈皮、当归、升麻、柴胡、炙甘草、生姜、大枣配伍，这就是有名的补中益气汤。
党参补气兼能养血，这是它的一大特点。所以气血两虚，气短心悸，疲倦乏力，面色苍白，头昏眼花，胃口不好，大便稀软，容易感冒的人，也宜服用党参。实验证明，党参能使红细胞增多、血红蛋白增加，所以贫血病人食用党参很有益处。因化疗和放射疗法引起的白细胞下降，服用党参也有促使白细胞回升的效果。
功 效】：补气升阳，补气摄血，补气行滞，去瘀散结，益气固表，补气益阴，利水消肿，温里散寒，托脓生肌，强体质，延年益寿。

性味归经】：甘，微温。①《本经》： “味甘，微温。”②《别录》：“无毒。生白水者，冷。”③ 《药性论》： “白水赤皮者，微寒。”④《医学启源》： “气温，味甘，平。”
用药忌宜】：实证及阴虚阳盛者忌服。①《本草经集注》：“恶龟甲。”②《药对》：“茯苓为之使。”③《日华子本草》：“恶白鲜皮。”④《医学入门》：“苍黑气盛者禁用，表邪旺者亦不可用，阴虚者亦宜少用。”“畏防风。”⑤《本草经疏》：“胸膈气闷，肠胃有积滞者勿用；阳盛阴虚者忌之；上焦热甚，下焦虚寒者忌之；病人多怒，肝气不和者勿服；痘疮血分热甚者忌之。”

Strawberries shown to protect stomach against ulcers
- Strawberries can help protect against ulcers, scientists say
People who suffer from stomach ulcers should consider tucking into a pint of fresh strawberries, particularly if the inflammation is related to excessive alcohol consumption, suggests a new study.
The new research, published in the journal PLoS One (Public Library of Science) and announced Tuesday, found that the powerful antioxidant properties of strawberries can act as a protective barrier to stomach ulcers.
In their study, a team of scientists from Italy, Serbia and Spain put a group of rats on a diet that included strawberry extracts for 10 days, before inducing gastric damage by giving the animals ethanol. Rats that ate strawberry extract were found to have less ulcerations by about 40 mg/day per kilo of weight, compared to those that didn't. Not only did the strawberries' antioxidant capacity help strengthen the stomach lining, but they were also found to activate the body's own defenses and enzymes, researchers said. Eating strawberries can also help alleviate damage either before or after the onset of inflammation. The new findings could pave the way for new protective ulcer treatments. Ulcers can be caused by alcohol consumption, viral infections or medications like aspirin. Researchers pointed out, however, that their study was not conceived to mitigate the effects of getting drunk, but to discover new ways of protecting the stomach against damage. Previous studies have also shown that strawberries can strengthen red blood cells' response to oxidative stress, which is often a precursor to cancer and other chronic diseases.

华韵群芳《春江花月夜》
Music for Your Ears
春江花月夜 春江潮水连海平，海上明月共潮生。 滟滟(1)随波千万里，何处春江无月明。 江流宛转绕芳甸，月照花林皆似霰。 空里流霜不觉飞，汀上白沙看不见。 江天一色无纤尘， 皎皎空中孤月轮。 江畔何人初见月？江月何年初照人？ 人生代代无穷已，江月年年望相似。 不知江月待何人，但见长江送流水。 白云一片去悠悠，青枫浦上不胜愁。 谁家今夜扁舟子？何处相思明月楼？ 可怜楼上月徘徊，应照离人妆镜台。 玉户帘中卷不去，捣衣砧上拂还来。 此时相望不相闻，愿逐月华流照君。 鸿雁长飞光不度，鱼龙潜跃水成文。 昨夜闲潭梦落花，可怜春半不还家。 江水流春去欲尽，江潭落月复西斜。斜月沉沉藏海雾，碣石潇湘无限路。 不知乘月几人归，落月摇情满江树。
