Is it easier to lack yang in summer? What are the most sun-consuming things in summer?
Yang qi is actually a word often mentioned in Chinese medicine. Many people have actually experienced the lack of yang. Now it is summer, and many people think that there should be no lack of yang, but it seems that this is not the case, because many people prefer cold drinks in summer. Is it easier to lack yang in that summer? What are the most sun-consuming things in summer?

1. Four things that consume the spirit of the sun most in summer

(1) cold drinks

Eating ice cream, drinking cold beer and drinking mung bean soup properly is a way to relieve summer heat, but don't overdo it, otherwise it will hinder the yang in the body, cause sore throat, and even hurt the yang and get sick, especially mung beans.

(2) Herbal tea

There is a saying in Guangdong called "hot air". After eating some hot food (such as fried and litchi), oral ulcer, sore throat, acne on the face and so on. It's all a sign of hot air, so I eat all kinds of medicines for clearing away heat and purging fire or drink herbal tea. Experts pointed out that herbal tea is generally cold, and it can clear away heat if there is heat in the body, and it is easy to hurt Yang if there is no heat.

(3) air conditioning

Summer is the most vigorous time for human metabolism, sweating a lot and opening pores. If you are greedy for cold, such as blowing cold air after sweating or the air conditioning temperature is too low, your health will be unstable, which will damage your yang.

So in an air-conditioned room, it is best to wear a small coat to keep warm, especially on the abdomen and back. Experts pointed out that the general indoor air conditioning temperature and outdoor can not be too different, air conditioning temperature in

26℃

Do it. If you are weak and afraid of cold, you can also wear long-sleeved clothes to avoid the chill of air conditioning invading from your skin and getting sick.

(4) Eating too many watermelons

Eating chilled fruits such as watermelon is a common way to cool off the heat. Watermelon has the effects of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat, promoting fluid production to quench thirst, and diuresis to relieve annoyance. But don't eat more watermelons, especially watermelons taken out of the refrigerator, which are heavy in moisture and damage the spleen and yang.

2. How to protect the yang in summer?

(1) Get some sunshine.

Because sunlight is the main source of human yang. The sunshine is best at nine or ten o'clock in the morning in summer. At this time, the sunshine is neither strong nor weak. At this time, the air quality is also the freshest, because plants begin to release oxygen through photosynthesis. At this time, if you are in the Woods and do aerobic breathing in front of the sun, the health care effect is the best.

(2) Go to bed early and get up early.

Summer is the season when people's hearts are full of fire and their lungs are weak. Early to bed and early to rise is in line with the enrichment and exuberance of yang. Getting up early in the morning to receive sunshine and fresh air is good for your health.

In summer, if you go to bed late and get up early, your sleep is relatively insufficient, especially for the elderly, who have the characteristics of pretending to sleep easily and are more likely to feel tired. So taking a nap in summer is health preservation. Pay attention to your sleeping position when sleeping, cover your abdomen with a towel to avoid getting cold in your stomach and abdomen.

(3) Moderate diet

Don't eat too much, but also pay attention to eating cold drinks carefully, so as not to damage the spleen and stomach yang. You can eat some warm food to warm the spleen and stomach yang consumed in the body. In particular, people with yang deficiency can eat more foods that warm and tonify yang, such as jujube and walnut kernel.

In summer, you sweat more and lose more salt. At this time, it is advisable to eat more sour taste to consolidate the exterior and more salty taste to replenish the heart. In addition, mung bean soup, watermelon, honeysuckle tea, chrysanthemum tea, ebony soup and so on. It is good to quench thirst and relieve summer heat, and people with yang deficiency eat less. People who are weak had better not overeat ice.

(4) Appropriate exercise.

I don't hate long days and hot weather in summer, but I still insist on taking part in labor and physical exercise to adapt to the spirit of growing up in summer. We should do more outdoor activities, especially in sunny mountainous areas, which is of great benefit to health.

Facing the rising sun in the east, take a deep breath; Take a deep breath under the blue sky and white clouds; Go to parks, pastoral areas, mountains, canyons, forests, seaside, lakeside, riverside, or walk, or walk, or run, or climb mountains, or swim, or dance. Fully absorb the essence of nature's yang, replenish energy, regulate qi and blood, and maintain yang.

3. Recommend Guyang coup

(1) Massage Yongquan Point

Can inspire a Yang!

"The kidney comes from the spring, and the spring is full of heart. As the name implies, the qi of Yongquan and Shenjing is like the source water, which comes from the first step and pours out to irrigate all parts of the body and limbs. Therefore, Yongquan point plays an important role in human health, disease prevention, treatment and health care. After washing your feet every night, massage Yongquan point 15 minutes or so, or massage Zusanli, Guanyuan, Mingmen and other health-care points, which is of great benefit to your health.

(2) Walking for aphrodisiac

Walking can really enhance yang. In fact, the health care function of walking and foot bath mainly works through Yongquan point. You don't need to pay special attention to the road conditions, and you don't have to choose cobblestone roads. Walking for half an hour every day can also protect the spirit of the sun.

"When people reach 40, the yang is insufficient", so there is a saying that "if you don't make up at 40, you will suffer at 50". After the prime of life, women are 42 years old and men are 48 years old. When the vitality of human yang rising drops, there will be a physiological decline process. If you don't replenish it in time at this time, people will soon get old.

4. Six things that the body fears most in summer.

1, morning exercises are most afraid of being early.

Dawn breaks early in summer, and many people go to the park for morning exercises early. But air pollutants are most common in summer, usually in the morning.

Before this point, it has not completely spread. In addition, before sunrise, because there is no photosynthesis, there is not much fresh oxygen near the green plants, but a lot of carbon dioxide is accumulated, which is not good for health.

Therefore, the morning exercise time in summer should not be earlier than.

Point.

2, cervical spine is most afraid of blowing

When the cervical vertebra blows against the air conditioner, the surrounding soft tissues will become pathological, leading to chronic inflammation of muscles and subcutaneous tissues, resulting in persistent neck spasm, back pain and other consequences. It is recommended that the indoor air conditioning temperature should not be lower than.

26℃

Don't point your shoulders and back directly at the air conditioner. If the temperature can't be adjusted by yourself, you can put a shawl on your shoulder and take a hot bath at night.

3, drinking water is the most afraid of being fast

Because of the high temperature, the speed of water shortage will also accelerate, and many people are used to drinking water in big gulps. If you drink water too fast, the water will quickly enter the blood, be absorbed in the intestine, dilute the blood, increase the blood volume, and have a bad heart. Especially people with coronary heart disease will have chest tightness, shortness of breath and other symptoms, which may seriously lead to myocardial infarction.

Therefore, drinking water in summer should not be too fast, and it should be small for many times. You can only drink one glass at a time.

100~ 150

ML, which is well absorbed by the body and cannot be cooled, 10.

Warm water above 0℃ is best for your health.

4. Eyes are most afraid of sun exposure

In the scorching sun, the eyes are the most vulnerable organs.

Experts remind that eyes like cold and fear heat. If you don't pay attention to sun protection, it is easy to age ahead of time and cause various eye diseases. If you want to spend the morning

It is best to wear sunglasses, hats or umbrellas when going out from 8 pm to 10 pm. The color of sunglasses is brown and light green, which has the best anti-ultraviolet effect.

You can eat more eye-catching foods, such as longan, yam, carrots, red dates and so on. Bacteria multiply quickly in summer, so rub your eyes as little as possible; Washing your face with running water can reduce eye diseases.

5. My family is most afraid of gray.

Summer is sultry and humid, and dust is more likely to attach to the air and enter people's skin and body. Because it is difficult to be found by naked eyes, people often neglect to clean them up. They float in the air for a long time and attach to the surface of objects in large quantities, becoming the habitat of dust mites and mold spores in the air. These dirty things will take the opportunity to enter the respiratory system, leading to asthma, rhinitis and other diseases.

It is suggested to increase the cleaning frequency in summer, once every two or three days.

6, the stomach is most afraid of cold

Summer is the high incidence of intestinal diseases. Experts suggest eating less cold things this season, especially before getting up in the morning and going to bed at night. In order to keep the "stomach" warm in time, adding ginger or mustard when eating cold food can not only warm the stomach, but also sterilize it.

5. Yang deficiency should be supplemented.

1) Chinese medicine believes that the living human body is warm and dynamic, which is the characteristic of Yang. Enzymatic reaction of cells, secretion of glands, beating of heart, peristalsis of gastrointestinal tract, thinking of brain, our actions and thoughts are all the results of Yang movement. Since it is a movement, there must be a trajectory, which is the "circulation of qi", that is, the five movement States of qi: expansion movement and upward movement; Smooth movements; Adduction, diving. The unfolding and ascending movements are dissipative movements, which can maintain the normal work of various systems of the body. However, energy cannot be consumed without replenishment, so it becomes negative. Life can't last, so there must be a way for the body to accumulate energy and restore life, that is, the downward movement of qi, so as to balance the energy balance.

2) If "stagnation of three fu organs" hinders the way of qi movement, Yang can't recover in time, which will inevitably lead to the body's energy deficit, which will hurt its roots and bring a series of hidden dangers to health.

3) Yang is the locomotive, and its normal circulation drives the circulation of tangible essence, blood and body fluid, the operation of viscera and the metabolism of substances, so that life is in an orderly and harmonious state.

4) "Qi" can't circulate normally for two reasons: 1 "Qi" is abundant, but due to various obstacles (cold pathogen, blood stasis; Phlegm-damp drinking water, food accumulation, insect accumulation, etc. ) leading to impassable roads and affecting the circulation of "qi"; 2 The total amount of "Qi" is not enough. Fuyang starts from these two aspects. If it can't be exhibited, we will help it to be exhibited. If it doesn't go up, we will help it go up, and so on. The goal is to restore the normal movement of Qi. The concept of "supporting yang" is to use aconite in large doses is wrong. We use Mahuang Fuzi Asarum Decoction to promote the expansion and release of qi, and also use Bufan Decoction to promote the absorption of qi.
