Dressing and health care
Li 755-79000 said, "Eat and wear clothes, and keep warm and cold. There is no sorrow in cold and no sweat in summer. " This can be said to be the earliest dressing advice given by Chinese medicine. Because the thickness and texture of clothes will affect people's health, so don't underestimate the knowledge of dressing and keeping in good health in daily life.
At one time, some hospitals in the north treated some young patients. They have similar symptoms, most of which are cold limbs and occasional convulsions, and they are all in a cold state. It's late autumn, and the doctor found that they all wore very little. In order to keep up with the fashion, these young people still insist on wearing only single clothes and pants. The waist and ankles that should be protected are exposed, causing severe cold. It is strange that they are not sick.
Chinese medicine has always stressed the need to "ward off evil spirits" and avoid the harm of colds to the human body. Waist, neck, back, abdomen and other parts must be kept warm. If these places are exposed when you are wearing clothes, you will be easily exposed to the wind and cause some diseases. According to the alternation of hot and cold seasons, we should also adjust our dressing habits at any time.
The Huangdi Neijing, edited by Li in Ming Dynasty, said: "In spring and month, the yang in winter is gradually dispersed, so it is advisable to release it to smooth the yang." In other words, when spring comes, the yang originally hidden in winter begins to grow gradually. Therefore, in spring, it is necessary to give priority to divergence, so that the yang is unobstructed. However, at this time, the weather is changeable, sometimes warm and sometimes cold, and it changes quickly. If you take off your cotton-padded coat immediately and put on a thinner spring coat, you will easily catch a cold due to the cold wind. As early as the Song Dynasty, Chen Zhi pointed out in his book "A Complete Collection of Ancient and Modern Medicine": As the weather gets warmer in spring, clothes should be gradually reduced, so you can't wear very little at once and feel cold. Moreover, it is easy to catch a cold in the morning and evening in spring, with high temperature at noon and large temperature difference between day and night. If you don't pay attention to adjust your clothes, you will easily get hot or catch a cold. You can wear a coat with moderate thickness at this time, one in the morning and one in the evening. If it is too hot at noon, you can take it off.
With global warming, the temperature rises rapidly in most parts of China in spring, and the high temperature in the south is faster. However, while reducing the heat dissipation of clothes, we should also pay attention to the change of weather, and don't damage our health because of greed.
The hot weather in summer makes people sweat easily, which is actually a measure for people to regulate their body temperature. It is best to wear sweaty clothes in summer, so that the heat of the human body is easy to dissipate. On the other hand, despite the hot weather, we should protect our chest, back and abdomen to prevent colds.
In autumn, the yang is getting weaker and the yin is getting heavier. Every time it rains, the temperature drops a little. It's time to put on more clothes to keep warm. However, after a summer, people's ability to keep out the cold is still relatively strong, and the heat between heaven and earth will not dissipate immediately, so there is no need to worry about wearing too thick clothes.
The temperature changes rapidly in spring and autumn, and the situation changes at any time in the morning and evening. People sweat easily at noon, especially when they go out for activities. You can't take off your clothes at this time. You have to wait until you are about to sweat. When sweating, sweat holes are all open. If you take off your clothes in a hurry, you will be easily attacked by pathogenic wind and cold, and wet sweat will easily stay on your skin, resulting in diseases such as wind, cold and dampness.
It's cold in winter, so we should have a sense of self-protection, especially for the elderly and infirm. Pay attention to the weather changes and add clothes to keep warm in time.
Nowadays, many chemicals are used.
