2, Chinese medicine health care methods
1, diet
As the saying goes, "medicine is better than food." In winter, food supplement is particularly important. Wang Jingyi, an expert in traditional Chinese medicine, said that the temperature in winter is too low. In order to maintain a certain amount of calories, the human body must increase the decomposition of sugar, fat and protein, so as to generate more energy to meet the needs of the body, so it is necessary to eat more foods rich in sugar, fat, protein and vitamins.
At the same time, the cold weather also affects the human urinary system, and urination increases. There are more inorganic salts such as sodium, potassium and calcium discharged with urine, so you should eat more foods containing inorganic salts such as potassium, sodium and calcium. In addition, we should eat more vegetables, appropriately increase food such as animal viscera, lean meat, fish and eggs, and also eat more food such as chicken, turtle, mutton, longan and fungus.
These foods are not only delicious, but also rich in protein, fat, carbohydrates, calcium, phosphorus, iron and other nutrients, which can not only supplement the heat consumed by cold in winter, but also invigorate qi and nourish blood and tonify deficiency, especially suitable for people with weak health. At the same time, eat less spicy and sour to prevent diseases. Early winter is the high incidence period of cardiovascular diseases. At this time, we should eat more moist and sweet food instead of spicy hot pot. For example, being jealous in diet can soften blood vessels and prevent cardiovascular diseases.
Step 2 be alive
Chinese medicine believes that "cold is yin evil, which often hurts Yang Qi". If the human body does not have Yang Qi, it will lose its metabolic vitality. Yang is particularly important for the elderly, so it is important to "nourish and hide" Yang in daily life in winter.
Experts emphasize: First, go to bed early and get up late: people should go to bed early appropriately, and it is not easy to get up too early in the morning, especially the elderly. If time permits, it is best to wait until the sun rises and the sun shines, so as to ensure adequate sleep, which is conducive to the hiding of yang and the accumulation of yin essence.
Second, pay attention to clothes: too thick and too thin is not good, too few clothes are too thin, and the room temperature is too low, which is easy to catch a cold and consume yang; On the other hand, if the clothes are too thick and the room temperature is too high, it will cause diarrhea, the yang will not be hidden, and cold pathogens will easily invade. spirit
In winter, human metabolism is in a relatively slow period. Therefore, winter health should be based on "hiding". "Hiding" means that people should keep quiet in winter.
Experts suggest that when things go wrong, you should learn to control bad emotions, vent them in an appropriate way, and keep your mind at peace.
At the same time, we should get more sunshine. Because it gets dark early in winter and the light time is short, it is also a reason why people are prone to depression. Because when night comes, the secretion of melatonin in the pineal gland of the human brain is enhanced, which can affect people's mood, and light can inhibit the secretion of this hormone.
Step 3 exercise
Exercise in winter is essential, and moderate exercise can enhance the body's ability to resist disease invasion. Wang Shijie, an expert in traditional Chinese medicine, stressed that it is very important to warm up before exercise, because in cold winter, people's limbs will be stiff. Such as stretching limbs, jogging, light equipment, make the body sweat slightly, and then carry out high-intensity fitness exercise.
Clothing depends on the weather, mainly to keep warm and prevent colds. Put on clothes in time after exercise to avoid catching a cold.
In addition, patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases should be prohibited from doing strenuous exercise, such as playing ball games and climbing mountains. Middle-aged and elderly people with respiratory diseases should avoid cold stimulation, avoid exercise in the morning and evening when it is sunny, so as not to induce disease onset, and the elderly should pay more attention to keeping warm when exercising outdoors.
