1, what should I pay attention to when raising lungs?
1, nourishing the lungs must first calm the heart.
To raise your lungs, you must first be comfortable and avoid being sad. Even if you encounter sad things, you should take the initiative to resolve them, and at the same time, you should converge to adapt to the depression of everything in autumn. Generally speaking, being calm is the best way to moisten the lungs. The lungs are respiratory organs, and the most obvious place for emotional changes is breathing. Shortness of breath not only increases the burden on the lungs, but also causes the gas in the body to leak out, which is just the opposite of the "autumn harvest". Therefore, the spirit of autumn aftercare is very important.
2. Daily life is suitable for cool autumn.
It's crisp in autumn, so going to bed early and getting up early is beneficial to the "autumn harvest". After entering the late autumn, the weather is changeable, even in the same area, there will be a situation of "four seasons in one day, different days in ten miles". Therefore, clothes should increase or decrease with the weather, otherwise it will affect the body's ability to adapt to the cold climate and easily catch a cold. Protect your chest and back when you sleep, because the acupoints of the five internal organs are concentrated on your back. If the evil wind invades, you are easy to have a stroke.
3, autumn tonic should nourish yin and moisten dryness
China folks have had the custom of "pasting autumn fertilizer" since ancient times. Every beginning of autumn season, every household begins to "eat meat for tonic". In this regard, in terms of diet conditioning, we should follow the principle of "nourishing yin in autumn and winter" proposed by Neijing, that is to say, we should eat a diet that nourishes yin and moistens dryness to prevent autumn dryness from damaging yin.
Edible tremella, sugarcane, bird's nest, donkey-hide gelatin, pear, sesame, lotus root, spinach, black-bone chicken, pig lung, soybean milk, duck eggs, honey, etc. If the spleen and stomach function is low, abdominal distension and diarrhea often occur, it is best not to eat the above foods and medicated diets, because they are all cold, so you should adjust the spleen and stomach function first, and then eat less nourishing yin foods and medicated diets after the spleen and stomach function is restored.
4, the diet should be less spicy and sour.
Pay attention to "less spicy and more sour" in autumn diet. In other words, eat less spicy food to prevent lung fire from being too strong. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that excessive lung fire will damage the function of the liver. Therefore, in autumn, in addition to "less pungent", it is also necessary to "increase acid" to increase the function of the liver and resist the invasion of excessive lung fire. According to this principle of TCM nutrition, we must eat less spicy food such as onion, ginger, garlic, leek and pepper in autumn, and eat more sour fruits and vegetables. Sour fruits include apples, pomegranates, grapes, grapefruit, lemons, hawthorn and so on. In short, eat more sour food in autumn, so as to achieve the purpose of nourishing lung and liver at the same time.
At present, many areas in the south are still hot and humid, which leads to weakness of the spleen and stomach and decreased resistance. At this time, if you eat some warm food, especially japonica rice or glutinous rice, it will have an excellent effect on strengthening the spleen and stomach and tonifying the middle qi. This theory has been recorded in ancient pharmacopoeia books such as Classic of Materia Medica, Spectrum of Resting Diet and Synopsis of the Golden Chamber, and its curative effect has been praised.
5, a balanced diet to prevent autumn dryness
Traditional health-preserving culture holds that form complements shape, and things complement each other. Is to make up what you eat. Then eat lung tonic in autumn, but the function of lung is too strong, which is easy to hurt liver. In addition, autumn itself is the seasonal season of the lungs. If it is supplemented, the balance of the body will be destroyed.
"Food is on the way" says: "Autumn is dry, you should eat hemp to moisten it, not drink cold." In order to alleviate the "autumn dryness", the diet should nourish yin and moisten the lungs. Some people even advocate eating glutinous rice gelatin porridge (Ejiao plus glutinous rice) in autumn to nourish yin and moisten dryness.
In short, mild foods such as sesame, glutinous rice, japonica rice, donkey-hide gelatin, honey, loquat, pineapple and dairy products can be eaten properly in autumn to benefit the stomach and promote fluid production. Try to eat less raw and cold food and less animal offal.
