Tokugawa Ieyasu s 73-year-old "double his average life" is key to daily diet with scientific certification

Speaking of Japanese history, Tokugawa Ieyasu, who started the Echo era, can be said that no one knows no one, and no one is not good at it. In addition to studying their achievements and strategies, their private lives are also curious. Tokugawa Ieyasu was 73 years old, which was quite high in ancient times because the average life at that time was 37-38 years old. Fujimoto Lentiko, a lecturer at the Japanese Fermentation Culture Association, shared that Tokugawa Ieyasu's longevity actually has a modern scientific basis, and the key is his daily diet.

The united Japanese army loves this miso

When talking about Japanese food culture, it has to be mentioned miso. Miso is mainly a food fermented from soybeans, rice koji and salt. The production method and proportion are very diverse. The one that is deeply loved by Tokugawa Army is "Hading Miso".

The origin of Hadine miso is the miso produced in Hadine Village, Aichi Okazaki Castle at that time, and Okazaki Castle is the hometown of Tokugawa Ieyasu, and local miso has become his favorite. The characteristic of

Batin miso is that it replaces rice koji with soybean koji. The raw materials are very simple soybeans, salt and water. After a long time of fermentation and machining, it can produce a strongly flavoured miso. Traditional Bading Miso must follow the strict rules of natural fermentation for more than two years and being made in low-water wooden barrels. Therefore, its lactic acid bacteria content is particularly high and its taste is very sour, so it is more suitable for slow-cooking and soup.

Fujimoto Lyko said that probiotics in miso can inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria (such as Helicobacteria), improve defecation and kidney health, and have the effect of lowering calcified sterols and enhancing the immune system.

Ba Ding Miso contains GABA aminobutyric acid, which can help sleep, so it is recommended to eat it for dinner. The rich vitamin E and soy peptide can prevent aging and promote skin dysfunction. It can also nourish and beautify the skin.

"Instant Miso Soup" on the battlefield

, Tokugawa Ieyasu not only eats miso in daily life, but also serves as a wartime food. Soldiers will dry the miso and carry it with them. When they want to eat it, add water to make the ancient version of "Instant Miso Soup", and will also apply it on the food to extend the shelf life of the food.

Fujimoto Ryoko said that from the perspective of modern science, eating miso during war is actually very reasonable, because miso contains a large amount of soy peptides, which has the effect of restoring fatigue and repairing muscle sucking. The amino acid content in hadine miso is particularly high, which can help soldiers fighting to replenish their strength.

In order to pursue health, Tokugawa Ieyasu adheres to the "five dishes and three roots" diet method

In addition to hadian miso, Tokugawa Ieyasu also follows a "five dishes and three roots" diet method, which refers to the meal containing five vegetables and three root locks. In addition, it is also paired with "baek rice". Baek rice not only has a rich dietary fiber, but also contains resistant powder, which can increase the number of good bacteria in the kidneys. It is difficult for this great man to live longer than others in diet.

Fujimoto Ryoko also shared that if modern people want to try the "five dishes and three-root diet" but also want to save purse, they might as well buy it while the vegetables are cheap, and cut them in advance to put them in cold dishes for later use. It is recommended to add mushrooms to the meal and adjust it to "five dishes, three-root and one-root" to make the nutrition more balanced.
