中国年轻人喜欢玩什么？（Intermediate level）

Today we're talking about the word "priority" and specifically, how to emphasise this word. A lot of people make mistakes here and use words like "most" or "very" to emphasise "priority". If you do this, then you might find today's podcast useful.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
上期我们聊了什么人适合吃辣，什么人不适合吃辣。那今天我们继续来聊一聊吃辣的时候要注意什么。
主持人：所以最后左医生能不能给我们总结一下，您这有没有比如说几条建议，比如吃辣的一些原则，帮助大家更好地吃辣，更科学更安全地吃辣？
左医生：那我们辣椒呢，又分干辣椒和鲜辣椒。那鲜辣椒的话当成蔬菜吃我觉得还是不错的，干辣椒呢，您当成调味品来吃，它里面的辣椒素都有的，都有一定的作用啊，包括对我们减肥啊促进代谢、祛湿都有一定的作用，你只要掌握好度就好。还有就是一种泡辣椒。泡辣椒的话能够去腥提鲜，像我们四川的一些鱼香肉丝啊，炒一些鸭肠啊那种下水都会用到泡辣椒，因为它提鲜。再一个呢，它呢有一定的益生菌，对调节肠道有一定的好处。但是它腌制的话，随着腌制时间的增加营养素会有所降低，还有一个盐分太高，那有高血压的人群的话，这种腌辣椒泡辣椒，真的是要少吃啊，真的是要少吃。还有我们吃辣椒的时候有技巧的，因为吃辣椒你觉得特别辣，我怎么来缓解呢？我也看过很多的报道包括我自己就试过，你这时候喝点茶不管用啊，你吃块冰块含块冰也不管用，那怎么办呢？像我们四川吃麻辣火锅的时候标配是什么呢？豆奶，尤其是凉的豆奶，或者是北方如果没有这种的话，你可以喝点冰的牛奶呀或者冰淇淋啊等等，或者是您家有点稀饭放凉了，您放在那儿，它其实对我们缓解这个辣都有一定的益处。
主持人：好，那再次谢谢左医生。
你喜欢吃哪种辣椒呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
