First, be careful about sexual intercourse and keep Xue Jing.
Blood is stored in liver and kidney, and it is better than grains, which is the material basis of essence, qi and spirit. Men value essence, women value blood.
According to the principle of hiding in spring, summer, autumn and winter, health experts put forward the theory of "hiding in spring, summer, autumn and winter" every month. Although it seems contrary to daily life, it has theoretical basis and practical significance.
Kidney stores essence, essence can produce marrow blood, marrow fills the bone and brain, and kidney qi nourishes the sky, which is also a hormone substance for growth and development. Full of bone marrow, full of qi and blood, quick thinking, quick response, strong body and full of energy. Yin is attached to Yang, so it has strong physical endurance, can bear overloaded workload and has the spirit of treating things. If we do not pay attention to the protection of kidney essence, the deficiency of essence will lead to the deficiency of kidney yin, and prolonged yang will lead to diseases. Yun: "If you don't hide essence in winter, you will get sick and warm in spring." It is said that this may be the cause of latent fever. Therefore, maintaining kidney yin is the key to contraception.
Second, balance the diet and broaden the diet path.
The congenital true yin of the kidney is supported by Tianshui valley, and a complete and peaceful diet can provide sufficient nutrition for the human body. Otherwise, excessive indulgence will hurt people's righteousness and lead to various diseases. The principle of a balanced diet is that all kinds of food are the mainstay, supplemented by vegetarian food, and fruits and melons are supplemented appropriately at the same time, which can not only obtain the nutrients needed in the body, but also make the body full of essence and blood. The nature and taste of food determine its practical value. For example, cold food can clear away heat and purge fire, sweets can nourish yin and promote fluid production, and sweets can nourish life and strengthen yang. Kidney deficiency should eat mutton, leeks and other foods; If qi and blood are insufficient, you should eat sea cucumber, seaweed, fish and so on. To supplement Xue Jing.
Third, the heart is clear and the heart is lacking, and the abdomen is closed.
According to the theory of Chinese medicine, winter is the time to store sperm. At this time, due to the cold climate, the human body has higher requirements for energy and nutrition, and its digestion and absorption function is also relatively strong. Proper tonic can not only improve the body's disease resistance, but also store the effective components in the tonic in the body, laying the foundation for health in the spring of next year and even throughout the year. As the saying goes, "three to nine supplements in one winter will not hurt in the coming year" is from this. Chinese medicine believes that the period from beginning of winter to beginning of spring is most suitable for winter tonic.
Winter tonic does not mean that everyone must take it in winter. Young, healthy people with good adaptability to the cold don't need tonic. For people who are physically weak and need tonic, improper tonic will produce a series of side effects. Because drugs enter the stomach completely through digestion and absorption of gastrointestinal tract, tonic can play its due role only if the gastrointestinal function is normal. Otherwise, when these supplements enter the body, they will stagnate and cause diseases. For this kind of people, you can take some drugs such as Codonopsis pilosula, Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria, Coix seed, lentils, dried tangerine peel and so on. Let the gastrointestinal function be normal, and then take tonic from less to more, so that the body can digest and absorb it better.
There are two main methods of tonic: one is food tonic and the other is medicine tonic. In winter, food supplement is particularly important. As the saying goes, "medicine is better than food."
When the temperature is too low in winter, in order to maintain a certain amount of calories, the human body must increase the decomposition of sugar, fat and protein to produce more energy to meet the needs of the body, so it is necessary to eat more foods rich in sugar, fat, protein and vitamins. There are other medicinal l.
But it should be noted that tonics are not used casually. Only by selecting targeted tonics according to qi deficiency, blood deficiency, yang deficiency and yin deficiency can we get good results.
For example, ginseng has the effects of invigorating qi, strengthening the heart, promoting fluid production to quench thirst and calming the nerves. Patients with qi deficiency have physical weakness, limb weakness, mental fatigue, palpitation and shortness of breath; Or the elderly and infirm; Or overworked and weak; Or dizziness and fatigue caused by chronic diseases. Eating ginseng can replenish vitality, stimulate appetite and promote physical recovery. Another example is Ejiao, which has the function of nourishing yin and enriching blood, and is especially suitable for people with blood deficiency. Everyone should choose according to their physical condition, or go to the hospital to ask Chinese medicine to diagnose what kind of deficiency syndrome they belong to, and then choose the corresponding tonic, so as to make up for it and benefit it.
Special reminder:
People with weak constitution should stop taking supplements during colds or other acute diseases, and continue taking supplements after the acute diseases are cured, otherwise the symptoms will be prolonged and it will be difficult to recover. While taking nourishing products, we should also adhere to proper exercise. Because exercise can promote metabolism, accelerate systemic blood circulation, enhance the digestion and absorption of tonics by gastrointestinal tract, and make the effective components in tonics be well utilized by the body, thus truly achieving the purpose of tonic.
Adequate sleep in winter is also very important for patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. However, it should be noted that when you wake up from sleep, you must lie in bed for a while and get up after you are "completely awake" to avoid angina pectoris and stroke. At the same time, exercise should have a certain intensity and be persistent, generally not less than three times a week, lasting 20~40 minutes each time. Exercise should not increase the heart rate, or although the heart rate increases obviously, it will gradually return to normal after a short rest, without chest tightness, shortness of breath, cough and chest pain. You feel good about yourself.
