Winter health pays attention to eight things and the sixth is rarely done

In winter and cold, most of the animals and plants are in hibernation. Therefore, people should follow the law of “napping and hiding” in the natural world, and adopt health-preserving methods based on Fuxi. The following are the eight major winter health regimens for Chinese medicine.

How can winter health?

1, should be appropriate exercise, little sweat

In winter, it is cloudy, and it is essential to protect the essence of this type of body. Therefore, the winter should be “warm to the cold,” and it is necessary to prevent cold attacks. But not too warm, especially bogey heavy clothing, drunk to the fire, baked belly back, a large warm sweat. This "warm" is achieved, but "warm" overdose, but it is easy to cause disease. Winter health should be properly exercised, adhere to outdoor exercise, can improve the excitability of the cerebral cortex, enhance the central nervous system and body temperature regulation, so that the body and the cold climate to achieve a balance, to adapt to cold stimulation, effectively improve the ability of the body to resist cold . As the saying goes: "In the winter, there is only one illness; in the winter, it is too lazy to drink a bowl of medicine." Exercise should be combined with movement, with slight sweating, not sweating. The perspiration is deflated, and there is a tendency to hide the yang in winter. Bathing too often in the winter for the elderly does not meet the health principles of yang. It is difficult to suffer from cold and sweat because it is forced by water and heat.

2, Yi Qin health foot, winter fitness foot

The feet should always be kept clean and dry, and the socks should be changed frequently. Keep walking for more than half an hour each day, with your feet. Sooner or later, you will continue to rub your feet to promote blood circulation. Keeping your feet warm during the winter is very important. It is the foundation of the human body and is the beginning of the Sanyin period and the end of the Sanyang period. It is associated with the body's twelve meridians, organs, and blood. As the saying goes, "Cold from the feet," because the feet away from the heart, lack of blood supply, less calories, poor insulation, so the warmth of the foot is very important. In addition to paying attention to the warmth of the feet during the day, insisting on washing feet with hot water every night can also promote the blood circulation of the whole body. Massage and stimulate the acupuncture points on both feet have the function of enhancing the body's defense ability, eliminating fatigue and improving sleep. In addition, it is important to choose a pair of comfortable, warm and lightweight shoes with good moisture absorption. Careful foot protection, winter health can do more with less.

3, should be warm and prevent disease

Cold weather in winter can easily induce recurrence or aggravation of chronic diseases. Cold also stimulates the occurrence of myocardial infarction and stroke, which can increase blood pressure and ulcers, rheumatism, and glaucoma. Therefore, winter should pay attention to cold and warm, the body should pay special attention to the warm parts of the neck, back and feet. One is to pay attention to the warmth of the neck. Some people continue to cough in winter and are not easy to cure. In fact, because they wear open-collar clothing to expose the neck, they are caused by cold air stimuli. After replacing high-collar garments and adding a scarf, the symptoms will improve. The second is to pay attention to the warmth of the back. Because the back is the Yang Yang of the human body, cold and other evils easily invade through the back and cause exogenous diseases, respiratory diseases and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

4, should drink enough water

Some people may think that in winter, people's activities are reduced, and in general, they do not feel thirsty, so they do not need to drink too much water. This understanding is actually wrong. Although perspiration urination is reduced in winter, it is still necessary to maintain the normal operation of cells in the brain and various organs of the body, so as to ensure the normal metabolism of the human body. In winter, daily rehydration should be no less than 2000-3000 ml.

5, should reconcile the spirit

The "Huang Di Nei Jing" mentioned in the "individual ambitions, if selfish, if there is any," means that in the winter should avoid all kinds of negative emotions of disturbance and stimulation, so that their feelings are always indifferent In a state of tranquility, it can be revealed without revealing the secret. It is secretive and unrequited. It makes the mind calm and free, allowing the inner world to be full of optimism and joy. According to their own health, choose some sports activities such as jogging, dancing, skating, playing and other inequalities, these are the good medicine to eliminate winter boredom, nursed back to health.

The chill in winter is particularly bad at night, and the ancients advocated "a late start to sleep." The famous medical scientist Sun Siyu of the Tang Dynasty said: "The winter months should not be out early in the morning, return at night, offend the chill." Early to sleep to raise yang, late to solid essence. Therefore, winter repose to ensure adequate sleep, which is conducive to yang hidden, Yin Jing accumulation.

6, suitable for ventilation

In the winter, care should be taken to keep the air in the room fresh. In the cold winter months, some people like to close doors and windows or go to sleep. This is a bad habit. Indoor air pollution in winter is more than a dozen times more serious than outdoor, affecting health. Therefore, while adjusting indoor temperature in winter, you should also pay attention to indoor air circulation and humidity adjustment. It should be accustomed to open doors and windows for ventilation and ventilation. During the day, doors and windows should be opened to allow the air to flow outward. In the evening, ventilation should be provided to clean the air and improve the mind.

7, should drink tea to drink porridge, winter diet avoid sticking hard cold

Porridge has the effect of increasing calories and nutrition. Nutrition experts advocate that winter health should eat more hot porridge. Morning hot porridge, dinner should be dieting to raise stomach gas. In addition to white rice porridge, you can often cook some glutinous rice red dates porridge, rice pudding, millet porridge. In addition, according to their own needs, food for God's heart and longan porridge, sesame porridge with nourishing yin, phlegm phlegm phlegm, yin-solid walnut porridge, spleen and stomach porridge, Qi Yin yin jujube porridge, lungs and fluids Tremella porridge, Chrysanthemum Chrysanthemum Qingming eyes, and the stomach of the intestinal porridge.

Tea is one of the best beverages for people and contains many vitamins and trace elements that the body needs. In particular, green tea can also prevent cancer and fight cancer, and it has good health effects on the human body. People who have long been engaged in computer work should drink tea regularly. However, people with stomach or anaemia medication should not drink tea, especially do not drink strong tea.

8, should be timely tonic

In many parts of the country, there are rumors that "Winter eat Radish and summer Ginger , not a doctor to prescribe medicine," it can be seen that diet is very important. Winter health should be scientifically supplemented by doctors' guidance. Tonics include Sibu and drug supplements. Tonic methods vary from person to person. People with a general lack of yang can select mutton, chicken, and dog meat. People with qi and blood loss can use goose, duck, and black-bone chicken. For those who should not eat raw cold and should not eat hot, can choose to use dumplings, red dates, walnut meat, black sesame seeds, fungus and so on. Drug supplements must be prescribed by doctors. One person should not disregard the actual situation and the whole family should make up for it. If you often feel limb weakness, mental fatigue, low voice, movement is sweating, this is mostly qi deficiency, optional ginseng, Codonopsis, Schisandra, Astragalus, Atractylodes and other Qi drugs.

During the winter season, it is best to make a supplement first to make the stomach adapt to the process. In general, you can use stewed beef dates, peanuts and brown sugar, or cook some ginger jujube beef soup to regulate spleen and stomach function.
