Precautions for health care in winter/go to bed early and get up late 1 Moisturize and prevent dryness
There are four taboos in bathing in winter: avoid washing too often, avoid boiling water, avoid rubbing too much, and avoid soap being too alkaline. Otherwise, it is easy to destroy the original sebum on the skin surface, making the skin drier and therefore more itchy and chapped. The number of baths should be 1~2 times per week. After bathing, you can rub some licorice oil, antipruritic cream, moisturizing cream and so on. Keep the skin moist and prevent the skin surface from drying off.
Heat preservation and cold protection
In winter, the temperature is low, and exposed parts of the skin are prone to frostbite, such as hands, head and neck. Others, such as feet, are also prone to freezing, so we should pay attention to the cold and warmth of these parts, such as wearing scarves, gloves, earmuffs and cotton shoes to keep warm, rubbing hands and ears at any time, padding feet and exercising in time. Avoid wearing wet clothes, shoes and socks. Meanwhile, dry your hands and face before going out.
Dress softly
Wear more clothes when it's cold in winter, and it's easier to feel itchy if you don't pay attention. This is because the body and clothes, clothes and clothes constantly rub to produce static electricity, which irritates the skin. Therefore, in winter, try to choose cotton, silk and other clothes that are not easy to generate static electricity to make underwear, underwear, shirts and so on. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the collocation of clothes. If you wear a polyester shirt, don't wear an acrylic sweater. If you wear synthetic fiber clothes inside, don't wear insulating polyester coat outside to prevent static electricity.
Skin exercise
Strengthen skin exercise and enhance skin adaptability to adapt to the cold environment. You can take a cold bath, an air bath, sunbathing, massage, etc. Still insist on washing your face with cold water and wiping your body with cold water.

Work and rest in winter should be more regular, go to bed early and get up early, and getting up after sunrise is the best time. It is good to go to bed early.

Also, you can't sleep with your head covered, because the air in the bed is not circulating, which will cause the air to become very turbid. People will feel chest tightness and nausea when they sleep in it, and their spirits will be bad when they get up the next day.

Keep your head warm: keep your head warm. If the head is stung by cold, the blood vessels will contract severely, and the muscles of the head will become very tense, which is prone to headaches, colds, gastroenteritis and other symptoms.

The winter nights are long. Many people don't get up after sleeping because they are afraid of the cold, and they hold their urine for a long time, which is very harmful to their health. Because urine contains uric acid and various toxic metabolites, if urine stays in our body for too long, these toxic substances will have a very bad influence on our body, and may even cause bladder inflammation or urethral inflammation.

9, more sun back, aphrodisiac mood.
Winter is the season when everything is silent, so in this season when everything begins to languish, people will inevitably feel sad. In turn, it breeds sadness and melancholy. In fact, this has something to do with not basking in the sun. In winter, Chinese medicine advocates "basking in the back" for health preservation. The back is the most important intersection of the seven meridians to transport the yang, and you often sit with your back to the sun, so that the sun warms your back a little, and the yang will be absorbed into the body through the acupuncture points on your back, and then transported to all parts of the body. When you feel full of harmony in the sun, it is a sign that your body is full of yang and your meridians are unobstructed. When the spirit of the sun is replenished, we can enjoy life again in high spirits.
The sunshine mood in winter is very important. We should cultivate our optimism, make ourselves happy, go out more and enjoy the different feelings brought by winter. Faced with workplace challenges such as year-end assessment, it is also stressful. Health experts remind you to actively adjust your mood when you encounter something unsatisfactory.

Because of the cold weather in winter, people wear more clothes and their skin is prone to failure. Soybean is rich in soybean isoflavone, which can improve skin failure. In addition, soybean can also reduce the bad cholesterol in the blood of patients with hyperlipidemia without affecting the good cholesterol in the blood, which has a good lipid-lowering effect.
3. Sweet potato
When the weather is cold, the metabolism of the human body drops, coupled with the decrease of outdoor activities at the end of the year and the increase of work pressure, many people will feel very tired and have no appetite to eat. Eating sweet potatoes at this time is helpful to tonify deficiency and qi, strengthen spleen and stomach, and strengthen kidney yin.
4. Soybean
Soybean has complete nutrients, among which protein is the "complete protein" with high lysine content, which can make up for the lack of lysine in grains.
