Without food, the human body can't live. Eating enough is one of the basic needs of human survival, but if you eat too much, it is not a good thing. It is recorded in Qian Qian's Ten Thousand Daughters; "Eating too much will accumulate, and drinking too much will become phlegm." It can be seen that diet control is of great significance to human health. Li Shizhen's Detailed Explanation of Materia Medica pointed out that: "If you don't eat properly, you will die immediately." If you don't have a proper diet, you can eat whatever you want and drink whatever you want, which will do great harm to your health. As the saying goes, overeating hurts the stomach, overeating, overeating, overeating. Eating 2-3 meals at a time exceeds the normal capacity of the stomach, which will inevitably burden the stomach and affect the digestion and absorption of the spleen and stomach, thus causing various diseases. Such as bulimia, gastropathy, gastrointestinal ulcer, hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hemorrhoids and so on. And even died of overeating. Moderate diet is conducive to promoting qi circulation and blood circulation, which is good for health, but some people drink too much and get drunk all day, which is extremely harmful to their health.
The secret of many people's longevity is "take a bite and live a long and healthy life". From the health point of view, don't eat full every meal, leave some room, which is good for health. Experimental research shows that mice that have been hungry live longer than mice that have been full all day.
The diet should be seven or eight points full, and every meal should be free from hunger and comfortable. Eating less and eating more can avoid the harm caused by overeating. For some elderly people and patients with stomach diseases, it may be more beneficial to eat less and eat more meals. Pay attention to breakfast at the same time. Eating a good breakfast can not only improve the efficiency of work and study in the morning, but also prevent overeating Chinese food because of hunger.
Throughout the ages, "autumn freezing" is the way of health preservation that Chinese medicine has always emphasized. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has long put forward the view of "harmony between man and nature", emphasizing that only when man and nature live in harmony can life be orderly. "Autumn freezing" means that although it is cool in autumn, you don't have to be busy adding clothes. Even in late autumn, we should control our clothes and let our bodies "freeze" consciously. Qiu Chuji, a famous health care expert in Yuan Dynasty, wrote in "On Taking Health Care" that in autumn, "if it is very cold, you can't eat more in one meal, but you don't catch a cold." Sun Simiao, a health care master in the Tang Dynasty, had a similar statement. Proper cool stimulation is helpful to exercise cold tolerance. After a certain period of exercise in an environment with gradually decreasing temperature, it can promote the body's material metabolism, increase heat production and improve its adaptability to low temperature. At the same time, it can also avoid body heat sweating, sweat evaporation, loss of vaginal fluid and body fluid, and yang leakage caused by wearing too many clothes, which meets the health needs of storing yin and collecting yang in autumn. Therefore, if you want to have a healthy body, you should also be "three-point cold", that is, keep your body warm without sweating. In this way, the body gradually adapts to the external warming, further improves the adaptability of the body, continuously enhances its own disease resistance, and effectively prevents the occurrence of various diseases such as upper respiratory tract infection and pneumonia. Even if you are sick, your symptoms are mild and your recovery is faster. "Three-point cold" not only stays on clothes, but also can exercise properly in cold water bath or winter swimming, which can enhance human body's resistance to diseases, help to enhance digestive function, and has certain auxiliary treatment effect on chronic gastritis, gastroptosis, constipation and other diseases.
