What are the main points of Dragon Boat Festival health care? Dragon Boat Festival is one of the traditional festivals in China. Some traditional festivals in China are often instructive to people's lives, and so is the Dragon Boat Festival. Therefore, people who are good at keeping in good health must understand the significance of the Dragon Boat Festival. Let's share the health points of the Dragon Boat Festival.

Key points of health preservation during Dragon Boat Festival 1 Exercise to regulate qi and blood.

Dragon Boat Festival is the most sunny time in a year, and the weather is rather dull. If the work pressure is high, the human body's physiological qi and blood are not running smoothly, and it is easy to be agitated and depressed, palpitations and chest tightness. Emotional changes will affect the function of zang-fu organs, and also lead to mental diseases, such as happiness and sadness, anger hurting the liver, sadness and spleen. Health preservation in summer should make the spleen, stomach, heart and lungs unobstructed. Therefore, besides medicine, diet and peace of mind, we should also strengthen exercise at the same time. The smooth operation of qi and blood in the whole body can enhance the cardiopulmonary function, regulate the metabolism of spleen and stomach, regulate the circulation of qi and blood, and the melancholy mood will also melt away.

To sum up, on the occasion of the Dragon Boat Festival, eating zongzi for dietotherapy to increase nutrition, hanging mugwort leaves for cleaning and disinfection to ward off evil spirits, drinking realgar wine to strengthen self-protection and rowing dragon boats to enhance physical fitness is a systematic health and fitness system, from which we can also see the profoundness of the traditional culture of the motherland.

Keep fit and prevent diseases.

In ancient times, there was the custom of drinking realgar wine on Dragon Boat Festival. In Materia Medica, the medicinal properties of realgar have long been recorded. Realgar is pungent and warm, and has the effects of killing snake venom, eliminating dampness and killing insects. Because of the high temperature season after the Dragon Boat Festival, all kinds of germs breed with the increase of temperature. At this time, it is most timely to use realgar to kill insects, detoxify and prevent diseases.

Every year to the Dragon Boat Festival, people have the custom of eating zongzi. According to legend, it originated from commemorating the patriotic poet Qu Yuan's martyrdom in the Miluo River on the fifth day of May to express his grief for this patriotic poet. Over time, China people have formed the custom of eating zongzi on the fifth day of May. The glutinous rice dumplings in the north are mainly sweet and cool. In the south, it can be divided into two categories: Soviet-style jiaozi includes jiaozi such as glutinous rice, red beans and bean paste, and jiaozi such as fresh meat and ham; Cantonese dumplings are mostly meat dumplings, such as barbecued egg yolk, lard bean paste, fresh meat egg yolk dumplings and so on.

Although the flavor, characteristics and practices of Zongzi in the north and south of China are different, glutinous rice and Zongzi leaves are the main materials. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that glutinous rice is a good food and has a good therapeutic effect. According to the analysis of medicinal properties in Materia Medica, glutinous rice is sweet in taste and flat in nature, and has the functions of invigorating qi and spleen, stimulating appetite and promoting digestion. The ingredients of zongzi also have a good health care function. Such as jujube, red beans, mung beans and so on. It has the effects of enriching blood, calming nerves, diuresis and detoxification, while ham, duck egg yolk and fresh meat are all nutritious foods. What's more worth mentioning is that the leaves used to wrap zongzi are more delicate. Reed leaves are mostly used in the north, and bamboo leaves or lotus leaves are mostly used in the south. These leaves have good medicinal functions. For example, reed leaves can clear away heat and promote fluid production, remove troubles and quench thirst; Bamboo leaves can clear away heat, relieve annoyance, induce diuresis and detoxify; Lotus leaf can clear away heat, induce diuresis and regulate stomach.

The Dragon Boat Festival is just too long in summer, so eating zongzi can be balanced and light, balanced and clear, which is really a recipe for timely food supplement and dietotherapy. Of course, you should be temperate when eating, and diabetics, the elderly and children should not eat more.

Chinese herbal medicines avoid toxic pathogens.

I have to say wormwood during the Dragon Boat Festival. It is a medicinal plant with bitter taste, mild nature and no toxicity, and has the functions of warming qi and blood, dispelling cold and dampness, and avoiding filth with fragrance. It is said that there is a folk custom of "hanging Ai people, wearing, drinking Ai wine, eating Ai cake and smoking". Some people still hang wormwood in halls, bedside and other places. During the Dragon Boat Festival, the air is moist and the mugwort leaves are fragrant, which can remove toxic gases, remove dirt, purify the air, keep the room clean and sanitary, and play a role in disinfection and disease prevention. There is a saying among the people: wormwood can cure all diseases and bring blessings. Hanging on the door can get rid of all kinds of poisons and make people healthy. Therefore, the ancients said that "Ai" can "ward off evil spirits". So far, there is a saying that "the family has Ai for three years, and the doctor doesn't have to come."

In addition, the Chinese herbal medicines commonly used in the Dragon Boat Festival include Acorus calamus, Artemisia annua, citronella and pomelo leaves. After being decocted in water, it can be drunk as tea or soaked in wine, which has a good health care function and can prevent diseases.

Health Points of Dragon Boat Festival 2 Health Points of Dragon Boat Festival

1, Dragon Boat Festival is the beginning of the disease.

The end means "beginning"; At noon, it belongs to fire among the twelve branches, which is the acme of Yang. Dragon Boat Festival means the peak of the sun in a year. Life experience also tells us that after the Dragon Boat Festival, the sunshine will be particularly bright.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, the hot air in the sky fell to the ground, and the moisture on the ground evaporated into the air, mixed with damp and heat. It is the easiest to breed germs, brew various pathogens and make people sick.

As we know, the word "disease" contains a "C", and C is also a fire, so disease is closely related to fire. Dragon Boat Festival is the beginning of the hot season; If you are not careful, that is the beginning of the disease.

The ancients also called the Dragon Boat Festival "evil day". If you say that the Dragon Boat Festival is a "festival", it is a bit wrong. Wang Meng, the former prime minister of Qin Dynasty, gave birth to a grandson on Dragon Boat Festival. The whole family thought it was a bad omen. Wang Meng named the child "Wang Zhene", hoping that the child could contain this terrible day.

The ancients set up the Dragon Boat Festival to remind everyone to pay attention to health and prevent diseases, so there are many customs of the Dragon Boat Festival.

The custom of Dragon Boat Festival is always associated with fragrance.

In order not to get sick in this hot season, people thought many ways, and later formed a custom, which is still in use today.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, the pathogens are mainly damp-heat, so it is necessary to turn incense into dampness and incense into turbidity. The custom of Dragon Boat Festival is always inseparable from incense. For example, Artemisia argyi leaves, Acorus gramineus, sachets, atractylodes rhizome, angelica dahurica, etc. To be fragrant is to make the fragrance moist and turbid; The purpose of drinking realgar wine is to make the strong gas of realgar and wine kill the virus and enhance the body's resistance at the same time.

3. Zongzi should not be eaten more.

Eating zongzi on Dragon Boat Festival is a custom handed down from ancient times. However, today, eating zongzi no longer meets the needs of health. Because zongzi is a sticky and indigestible food. When the ancients arrived at the Dragon Boat Festival, it was the time when the green and yellow were not connected, and they were often hungry. On the Dragon Boat Festival, they eat zongzi to satisfy their hunger. Now that everyone is full, there is really no need to eat zongzi.

So we suggest eating less or not eating zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival. Give gifts between relatives and friends, not zongzi. Can you eat all the zongzi? It's a waste if you can't finish it.

Customs are always changing, and some customs will change with the times, which requires "changing customs"; There are also some customs that are eternal, which requires "respecting tradition". In short, we need to be flexible.

4. sachets are the first choice for giving gifts to relatives and friends during the Dragon Boat Festival.

There has been a habit of wearing sachets since the Dragon Boat Festival, and there are many formulas for sachets during the Dragon Boat Festival. Starting from the reality of modern people, combined with the ancient prescriptions, combined with the five movements and six qi of that year (in the year of Renchen, the sun was cold in Shui Han, and the spring soil was too wet), the Dragon Boat Festival sachet was prepared, which can dispel the turbidity, wake up, enlighten people, repel insects and avoid filth, and prevent diseases. It can not only dissolve the wet and turbid pathogens in the air, but also enhance people's resistance. It will take a whole summer from the Dragon Boat Festival.

5. How to use the Dragon Boat Festival sachet?

Dragon Boat Festival sachets can be carried around, put in a bag, put in a pocket, hung around your neck, put in the car, or hung at home. For example, it can be hung on your desk or on the side of doors and windows, which can be both decorative and practical.

6, May and June, people are in the first place, so keep a cool head.

Huangdi Neijing said: "May and June are full of vigor, vitality and popularity." Pay great attention to the maintenance of the head in summer. Good maintenance can make people feel refreshed. Poor maintenance can make people feel sleepy, headache and dizziness. Many people come to Qiu Lai with malignant diseases such as brain tumor and cerebral hemorrhage, which are related to the inability to maintain their heads in summer. Because of fire inflammation, I was the first to suffer, and I was smoked by damp heat for a summer.
