Soaking feet is a tonic, which is cheap, practical and convenient for our people. We can't afford ginseng bird's nest, can't we afford to soak our feet? After a hard day's work, I feel very comfortable sitting on the sofa and soaking my feet when I get home. Especially in the frozen winter in Wan Li, I soak my feet and feel warm from the soles of my feet to my heart.

However, at this time, Wen's brother-in-law is going to play the devil's advocate, and he should remind his friends that when the following situations occur, soaking feet will not only fail to sustain life, but will turn into chronic suicide.

Don't soak your feet immediately after meals, especially when you are full.

Little friends, we say that soaking feet is a big supplement. What kind of supplement is it? Chinese medicine has two tonic methods, one is to directly replenish qi and blood, just like we drink a steaming bowl of millet yam porridge. This tonic is to directly replenish qi and blood. The second tonic method is to replenish meridians, which is to dredge your meridians and blood vessels, which will be more conducive to the generation of qi and blood after passing.

Soaking feet is not directly nourishing qi and blood, but nourishing qi and blood. Its greatest function is to promote qi and blood circulation, warm meridians and dredge collaterals. According to western medicine, it is to speed up your metabolism.

Why can't you soak your feet after dinner? Because our qi and blood should be concentrated on the spleen and stomach after meals, soaking feet will lead to blood downward, which is equal to competing with the spleen and stomach for qi and blood, which is very unfavorable to the transportation of the spleen and stomach. Especially after eating too much, the spleen and stomach need qi and blood more. At this time, you should have a good rest and don't artificially interfere with the qi and blood of the spleen and stomach.

You can't soak your feet immediately when you are extremely tired. You must rest for half an hour first.

Some friends have doubts. What is the reason? Isn't it said that soaking feet can relieve fatigue?

Yes, soaking feet can relieve fatigue and mild fatigue. When you come back from running or climbing a mountain, your feet are as heavy as lead, so you can't soak your feet immediately. Because you have exercised too much at this time, what you need is a rest. Many people think that soaking feet is a kind of rest. In fact, soaking feet is also a kind of exercise, but hot water helps you exercise.
