Matters needing attention in health care of Xiaoman solar terms:
1, the curse of sleeping in the cold
Xiaoman solar term is at the end of May, and the temperature rises obviously. If you sleep in the cold, it will definitely lead to diseases such as rheumatism and wet skin diseases. In the health care of Xiaoman solar terms, it is especially necessary to put forward the health care viewpoint of "prevention before illness". It is to do all kinds of preventive work before getting sick to prevent the occurrence of diseases.
In the aspect of pre-illness health care, it is still emphasized that the holistic view of harmony between man and nature and the pathological view of health care should not be evil. Chinese medicine believes that the human body is an organic whole, and people are closely related to the external environment. It is pointed out that human beings must master the laws of nature, adapt to the changes of nature, and maintain the coordination of internal and external environment in order to achieve the purpose of disease prevention and health care.
After the daily life is enriched, the temperature rises obviously and the rainfall increases, but it will still be cold in the morning and evening, and the daily temperature difference is still large, especially after the rain, the temperature drops more obviously. Therefore, we should pay attention to adding clothes in time, especially when sleeping at night, and keep warm to avoid catching a cold. At the same time, it is necessary to conform to the principle of yang dispersing yin in summer, get up early and go to bed late, but ensure the sleep time to keep energetic. This is the most important point of health taboo in Xiaoman season.

After entering Xiaoman, the temperature rises, and people often like to use cold drinks to cool down, but excessive cold drinks can lead to abdominal pain, diarrhea and other diseases. Eating a cool diet at this time is easy to cause gastrointestinal discomfort and abdominal pain and diarrhea. Because children's digestive system is underdeveloped and the visceral function of the elderly is gradually declining, this situation is more likely to occur in children and the elderly. Therefore, we should pay attention to avoid eating too much cold food in our diet. This is a health taboo that people often make during the xiaoman season.
3. Be careful about the food that helps to moisten.
After Xiaoman, the weather is not only hot and sweaty, but also rainy. The diet should be based on a light vegetarian diet, and often eat foods with the functions of clearing heat, promoting diuresis and nourishing yin, such as adzuki bean, coix seed, mung bean, wax gourd, cucumber, day lily, cress, auricularia auricula, carrot, tomato, watermelon, yam and crucian carp.
4. Emotional anxiety and wealth
When it is full, people tend to be irritable. At this time, we should adjust our emotions, pay attention to maintaining a comfortable mood and being open-minded, and prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as hypertension and cerebrovascular accidents caused by intense emotional fluctuations.
