Herbal Yangzhengtang reminds everyone of the way of TCM health preservation in autumn.
"Huangdi Neijing. Four Qi Tiaoling Chapter II says: Autumn is March, which is called bearing, the weather is urgent, and the atmosphere is bright. You lie down early and get up early, and have fun with chickens, which makes you calm down, slows down the punishment in autumn, converges the spirit and calms the autumn atmosphere; Without ambition, the lungs are clear, and this autumn gas should be raised. On the contrary, it will hurt the lungs, have diarrhea in winter, and few people serve Tibet. Herbal Yangzhengtang reminds everyone that autumn health care should pay attention to the following aspects. (1) Early to bed and early to rise, collecting sperm and storing yin. Autumn morning is the time when the air is freshest and the oxygen content is the highest in the four seasons. It is advisable to get up early, walk in the court, breathe fresh air, bid farewell to the old and welcome the new; The temperature turns cold in autumn night, so the elderly should go to bed early to recuperate, which is in line with the way of yin and essence convergence, which is helpful to store yin and essence and maintain the harmony between yin and yang. (2) Diet nourishes and nourishes yin. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that seasonal diet has the functions of harmonizing yin and yang, nourishing viscera, nourishing qi and blood, and regulating emotions. Therefore, the autumn diet should be based on the principle of preventing dryness and protecting yin, nourishing yin and moistening lung, eating less spicy and hot products and animal liver, reducing pungent and increasing acid, and eating more foods that nourish yin and moisten lung, such as pears, tomatoes, seasonal fruits and fresh vegetables, honey and dairy products, so as to improve viscera, nourish yin and moisten lung, and replenish deficiency and dispel dryness. (3) Moderate exercise, restraint and protection of yin and qi in autumn is a good time to exercise, but for the elderly, it is not appropriate to do strenuous exercise like young people, so as to avoid excessive physical exertion, consuming yin and damaging body fluid, and venting yang, which violates the health law of yin and storing essence, and yang is restrained. Regardless of running, mountain climbing and practicing, Chinese medicine should take gentle and gentle actions or moderate and low exercise until it sweats with slight heat. As long as you persist, the result is very good. (4) It should be frozen in autumn to prevent diseases and nourish yin. Ancient and modern health experts all advocate that it is not busy to add clothes in autumn, so it is better to freeze than to freeze, so as to enhance the body's ability to resist cold and prevent diseases. Even if you dress in late autumn, you should control it. Don't wear too many clothes too early, which will lead to excessive body heat and sweating, and sweat evaporation will lead to yang leakage. There is also a folk saying that the white dew is not exposed, indicating that the climate is changeable after the white dew, and it is easy to catch a cold or relapse. Therefore, Chinese medicine believes that autumn freezing should be properly controlled according to its own situation. When adding clothes without clothes, it will be cold, which violates the original intention of autumn freezing fitness. (5) Clever use of drugs, dialectical nourishing yin and autumn dryness will hurt human essence, qi, blood and semen, resulting in yin deficiency. Yin deficiency is divided into heart yin deficiency, lung yin deficiency and kidney yin deficiency, each with its own symptoms, which can be supplemented by Chinese herbal medicine according to syndrome differentiation. There are many drugs to tonify yin deficiency, and their usage is different. Only under the guidance of doctors can we get rid of illness and strengthen our health and spend the troubled autumn safely.
