Third, autumn.

1 is one of the four seasons. Traditionally, China takes "beginning of autumn" in the 24 solar terms as the starting point of autumn. Entering autumn means that rainfall and humidity tend to decrease or decrease, and everything in nature begins to mature from lush.

2. At present, the four seasons are usually divided according to the average temperature of modern scholar Zhang Baokun. The index is that the average temperature is below 10℃ in winter, above 22℃ in summer, and 10~22℃ in spring or autumn.

Autumn is a season of alternating hot and cold. Early autumn is still in the heat, but it hasn't come out yet. This is the hottest, wettest and sultry period of the year.

4. After late autumn, it is sunny during the day, cool and dry at night, with large temperature difference between morning and evening, less rain and insufficient water. Therefore, autumn dryness has become the main feature of late autumn.

Fourth, dietary tips

1. Eat more acidic food in autumn diet. The climate in autumn is dry and the temperature difference is uncertain, so it is necessary to protect the liver function of the body. In diet, it is necessary to "increase acid" to enhance the function of the liver and resist the invasion of excessive lung qi.

2. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that autumn is a transitional period between two seasons in Xia Dong, when the temperature changes from hot to cold, and the health care should also change from "nourishing yang" to "nourishing yin".
