In autumn, the temperature difference makes dry air hurt the lungs. After beginning of autumn, the temperature dropped slowly, and it was obviously cool in the morning and evening, but at noon, the temperature began to rise again. Chinese medicine doctor Peng said that the temperature difference between day and night in autumn is large, and the respiratory mucosa is constantly cold and hot. Many people don't adapt to the temperature change, and begin to have symptoms such as dry nasal cavity, itchy throat and dry cough, or often feel thirsty, and drinking more water can't quench their thirst. At this time, the lungs were injured by dryness! "Su Wen? "The Theory of Yin and Yang should be like" mentioned: "If dryness wins, it will be dry. ".It means that if you are too dry, you will consume body fluids and have symptoms such as dry skin, dry mouth and nose, dry cough and dry stool. Dr. Peng reminded that dryness in autumn is the most likely to hurt the lungs. Therefore, autumn is a season suitable for nourishing yin. You can eat more foods that nourish yin and moisten dryness and replenish lung qi to improve the symptoms of autumn dryness. Moistening the lungs, benefiting qi and moistening dryness is the first priority. In autumn, qi dryness hurts the lungs and easily leads to respiratory diseases. Therefore, the focus of traditional Chinese medicine in autumn is to nourish yin and moisten dryness, replenish qi and replenish physical strength. Dr. Peng said that if people want to nourish yin and moisten dryness and replenish lung qi, they can choose to take Shengmai Drink. Shengmaiyin consists of three simple prescriptions: ginseng, Ophiopogon japonicus and Schisandra chinensis. The most important ginseng, containing ginsenoside, can replenish lung qi and promote blood circulation and metabolism, and has always been the first choice for many people to replenish qi. Ophiopogon japonicus can nourish yin and moisten dryness, clear the heart and moisten the lungs, benefit yin and relieve annoyance, and relieve internal heat; Mild Schisandra chinensis can protect the five internal organs of human body, and at the same time, it has astringent effect. Its sour taste can produce fluid, which is helpful to strengthen physical strength, consolidate the qi supplemented by ginseng and prevent the dissipation of vitality. Dr. Peng said that although ginseng, known as the "king of tonics", can tonify lung qi, eating too much ginseng to tonify qi will cause flatulence and get angry. It is best to combine with other drugs to form a compound to achieve the effect of completely invigorating qi. But it is not good to mix the compound with herbs with annealing effect at will! The most suitable prescription must be formulated on the principle of "monarch, minister and assistant" to enhance the benefits of ginseng, reduce the disadvantages of unilateral use and supplement the vitality of the body. For example, Shengmai Drink consists of ginseng, Ophiopogon japonicus and Schisandra chinensis. The formula is simple and complementary, and at the same time, it can replenish qi without getting angry. Dr. Peng suggested that in addition to using Chinese herbal medicines and improving diet, the usual living habits are also very important in autumn health care. Besides drinking plenty of water to replenish body fluids, you should go to bed early and get up early, exercise outdoors properly and stay optimistic. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, "going to bed early and benefiting yin, getting up early and moistening the lungs" can nourish yin and avoid dryness and heat; Getting up early can breathe fresh air, relax the lungs and keep energetic. In addition, people who leave early and return late had better choose to wear "onion style", from thin to thick, from inside to outside, to cope with the temperature difference between day and night.
