1, the method of haze prevention
First, the haze prevention strategy
1, not afraid of coughing, but afraid of not coughing, expectoration is the most important.
Xu Wenbing Faber, founder of Magnolia Officinalis, said: "It is normal to cough when breathing this air. People who don't cough are abnormal, and they will get sick when sitting down. Open a no-cough clinic tomorrow to let people who breathe poisonous fog and don't cough cough. They will expectorate and spit, and wrap up greasy dust particles. Don't register for coughing, continue to cough! "
2. Eliminating smog is the first priority, avoiding smog is the second priority, and drugs are the third priority.
Shaping Qi: "The fundamental problem of smog is the environment. How can drugs treat dirty qi and solve the environment? Inhale smog every day. Do you take medicine every day to relieve constipation? How dare this kind of thinking crown the wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine? Talking about coping with smog with wisdom can be divided into three strategies: the best policy: eliminating the source of smog; China strategy: preventing entry; The best policy: seek medical treatment. "
3. Advocate righteousness, and evil cannot be done.
Wisdom Traditional Chinese Medicine Yangshengtang: "Survival of the fittest is the survival law of nature, environmental pollution is a social behavior, and individual will cannot be transferred. Only by improving the kinetic energy of the five internal organs and keeping pace with the times to the maximum can deus ex be achieved. The four gentlemen are not afraid of anything, but naturally they are afraid of fog and dust to stop water.
"
Second, the prevention and control of drugs and food
1, Huoxiang Zhengqi Water
Luo Dalun and Liu Lihong were recommended by two Chinese medicine practitioners.
Luo Dalun: Recently, there have been severe smog in many places, and many people have caught a cold. I think in this environment, if you have a cold and your tongue coating is thicker than usual, especially if you have some spleen and stomach symptoms, such as vomiting and diarrhea, you should consider adding Huoxiang Zhengqi. If the child has a fever and doesn't like to take it orally, you can use the method of Dr. Zhang Baoxun, a Chinese medicine doctor, stick a cotton ball in Huoxiang Zhengqi water on the navel and cover it with a sore. You can also soak your feet in warm water. Adults can take it orally.
Use Sanhe Chinese Medicine-Liu Lihong: It's rare that 25 provinces are affected by smog! From the modern point of view, it is related to pollution, while from the point of view of traditional Chinese medicine, it is mostly caused by the stagnation of six qi. If this has an impact on the human body, you can try the method of Huoxiang Zhengqi. With the fragrance of Huoxiang and the medicine of warming the heart, the turbidity in the middle can be cleared, and the stagnation inside and outside can be eliminated, while the dust and gas in Liuhe can be swept away!
2. Dietotherapy "invigorating spleen, warming lung and eliminating dampness"+prescription "warming lung and yang and eliminating cold and dampness"
Choose TCM _ Dong Hongtao: The haze is cloudy and turbid, and it enters the human body from the respiratory tract, which is the most harmful to yang. You should stay at home as much as possible, reduce outdoor exercise, and you should not exercise in foggy days. News footage showed someone wearing a mask hitting Tai Ji Chuan in the smog. I also saw that a university organized a long-distance running for students in a smoggy day, which was easy to get sick and not worth the candle. In smoggy weather, you can eat some foods that strengthen the spleen, warm the lungs and eliminate dampness, such as white lentils, ginger, scallion and barley.
How to protect yourself in foggy weather? First, avoid outdoor sports and blind sports; Second, smog is the evil of cold and dampness. Inhalation is the most likely to hurt the lungs and yang. It is necessary to keep warm and dress properly to avoid catching a cold. Third, try to take prescriptions that warm lung yang and dispel cold and dampness to enhance physical fitness and prevent diseases. I think it can be used in asarum, Schisandra chinensis, dried ginger, Ophiopogon japonicus, lily and radish seeds. If you have cough discomfort, you can also add Fructus Aurantii and Radix Platycodi to boost lung qi.
3, winter melon tea, glutinous rice porridge Qingfei
Smog weather is very harmful to the lungs and is likely to produce phlegm. "So eliminating phlegm is very important." Cao Lingyong, MD, Dean of Hangzhou Classic Research Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, suggested that we could cook some winter melon tea at home. "Usually we eat winter melon and only eat its meat, skin and seeds, but in fact, the winter melon tea cooked by putting the latter two in water has a good effect of resolving phlegm and clearing the lungs."
This winter melon tea is easy to cook. "Wash the skin and seeds of wax gourd, put some water in it, then boil it on high fire and stew it on low fire 10 minute." Dr. Cao Lingyong said that honey can be added after cooking.
In addition, it is also a good choice to cook a bowl of barley porridge in this weather. "Because coix seed can strengthen the spleen, eliminate phlegm and eliminate dampness." Dr. Cao Lingyong said.
4. Eat more white food to moisten the lungs and nourish yin.
"Autumn and winter are relatively dry, and it is more important to moisten and nourish the lungs at this time." Chen Yi, a well-known national traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and vice president of the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine of the Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that all the five internal organs have their own corresponding colors, and the lungs correspond to white. "So we can eat more white food."
"Lily, tremella, pear, water chestnut and yam are very useful." Dr. Cao Lingyong said that the lungs are fine and dirty, and pathogens invade the human body. Whether inhaled through the nose and mouth or invaded through the skin, it is easy to attack the lungs and cause disease, so it needs to be carefully raised. These white foods can moisten the lungs and nourish yin, and improve the righteousness of the lungs. As soon as the lungs are raised, the corresponding resistance will go up. "And there is nothing particularly taboo about these foods. Ordinary people can eat them."
5, astragalus soak in water to enhance lung qi
People with lung qi deficiency may be fine at ordinary times, but some discomfort may occur when the weather is bad, such as chest tightness, shortness of breath and mental fatigue. "You can try to use boiled astragalus, because astragalus has the effect of invigorating qi in Chinese medicine." Dr. Cao Lingyong said.
Third, physical therapy.
1, press or moxibustion Zusanli
Zhang Baoxun, acupuncturist: My first thought about smog is that ancient books say that clouds are expensive and miasma. The weather in the north and south is a bit abnormal now. More support. In order to ensure a healthy life in Yunnan and Guizhou, officials who went to Yunnan and Guizhou in ancient times had to moxibustion Zusanli to fester. Purulent moxibustion is unnecessary, and pressing or moxibustion Zusanli is very meaningful for health care.
2. Knead thenar+most or missing points+often eat tremella, lily and lotus seeds.
Yuan, an acupuncturist in Dacheng, Shanghai, reminded friends that severe smog is particularly harmful to the respiratory system, which can induce cough, chest tightness, sore throat and even upper respiratory tract infection and asthma. It is recommended to wear a mask when going out. You can also wipe the fishbone before and after going out to clear your lungs and relieve cough. The cough is the most serious, and the throat is uncomfortable (as shown below). You should eat tremella, lily and lotus seeds often to reduce the damage to the lungs.
3. Lung fat curettage
Cheng Acupuncture Teacher: "If smog becomes an inevitable problem in a stage, it is suggested to shave it nearby once a week to mobilize the potential functions of the body and start from yourself."
4. Knead Xiang Ying point to handle the nose.
In addition to hurting the lungs, foggy days are also easy to cause colds. "Rubbing Xiang Ying point has a certain effect on relieving cold symptoms, especially for dealing with nasal congestion." Vice President Chen Yi said.
Xiang Ying point is located at about 65438 0 cm on both sides of the nose. Press the Xiang Ying points on both sides of the nose with the forefinger of both hands. "Every time you press 50 times, two or three times a day is almost the same." Chen Yi, vice president, said that Chinese medicine believes that Xiang Ying is a wind-sensitive part of the body surface. Regular massage can dispel the wind on the head and face, dispel the cold on the top of the head, thus enhancing the ability to resist germs, promoting blood circulation around the nose, making qi and blood smooth, and foreign pathogens are not easy to invade, thus playing a role in fighting germs in the air.
5. Qigong
Vice President Chen Yi recommended that you can also try breathing exercises. First, breathe through the abdomen, with your left hand on your abdomen and your right hand on your chest. Inhale slowly through your nose to inflate your stomach, hold your breath for one second after inhaling, and exhale slowly through your mouth. In this process, your left hand should move, but your right hand should not. Secondly, breathe in the chest, inhale slowly through the nose, hold your chest high and keep your left hand still. At this time, your right hand will move, breathe in for one second, and then exhale slowly through your mouth. Finally, breathe repeatedly, first inflate your stomach, then hold your chest out for a second before exhaling. Repeat each exercise three times like this. "But pay attention to inhale and exhale slowly and evenly."
6. Green plants
Lingqian Kong: Instead of searching for the secret of clearing away lung heat, we should take some green plants home and create a fairyland on earth in our own space! Don't do it yet: a natural scavenger can remove harmful substances from the air; 2. Chlorophytum Jin Xin: It can remove harmful substances in the air and purify the air; 3. Jinhu: It absorbs carbon dioxide day and night and releases oxygen, which is easy to survive; 4. Sunflower: p-xylene and formaldehyde have a very effective purification effect.
2. The principle of eating in foggy days
1, eat more tofu
The sun does not show its face in foggy days, and experts warn that this may affect the acquisition of vitamin D, which may lead to calcium deficiency. Most of the vitamin D needed by human body needs sunlight to get it. Vitamin D can promote the absorption of calcium. If the sunshine is insufficient for one or two months, it may lead to calcium deficiency.
Suggestion: Eat more tofu to supplement vitamin D and promote the absorption of calcium.
2, the right amount of vitamin D.
This season is foggy and sunny. Due to insufficient ultraviolet radiation and insufficient vitamin D in the human body, some people will experience mental laziness and depression. Vitamin d can be supplemented if necessary.
3. Eat a light diet and drink plenty of water
The diet in foggy days should choose light and digestible foods rich in vitamins, drink plenty of water and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, which can not only supplement various vitamins and inorganic salts, but also play a role in moistening the lungs, resolving phlegm, relieving cough, strengthening the spleen and tonifying the kidney. Eat less irritating food and eat more pears, loquats, oranges, oranges and other foods.
4, moistening the lungs and supplementing calcium can not be less
5. Patients insist on taking medicine.
Patients with respiratory diseases and patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases should insist on taking medicine on time in foggy days to avoid getting sick; And strengthen self-monitoring, pay attention to the body's feelings and reactions, and seek medical advice in time if you feel unwell.
6, drink more tea that clears the lungs and moistens the lungs, such as arhat fruit tea.
Arhat fruit tea can prevent and treat throat itching caused by inhaling dirty air in foggy days, and has a good lung moistening effect. Especially in the afternoon, the effect is better. Because the fog is thickest in the morning and almost disappears at noon, people inhale more dust and impurities in the morning, so they can clear their lungs in time when drinking in the afternoon.
7, it is best to eat more fruits, eat more mung bean soup, red bean soup, boiled water and so on. To prevent the smog weather from affecting your respiratory tract.
The elderly, children, pregnant women, patients with heart disease, patients with respiratory diseases and other people sensitive to pollution, it is best to reduce outdoor activities on cloudy days. Because the resistance of the elderly and children is weak, experts suggest that the elderly should keep a scientific life rule, avoid overwork and drink more water. Pay attention to a light diet, eat less irritating food, eat more tofu, milk and other foods, and supplement vitamin D when necessary.
