Keeping in good health in spring should be in line with the characteristics that the yang is the source of hair and everything begins to grow. From "nourishing yin in autumn and winter" to "nourishing yang in spring and summer", we should pay attention to protecting the yang. Because spring belongs to wood, it corresponds to the liver, so spring health preservation is mainly to protect the liver. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the liver governs emotions, so protecting the liver should start with emotions. The key to nourishing the liver is to keep a good mood and prevent the "liver fire from rising". Don't be too excited and excited, be cheerful and peaceful, which is conducive to soothing the liver and regulating qi.

After beginning of spring's diet, we should consider the birth of sun be the spirit in spring, and should eat products with divergent sweet taste, not sour taste and bitter taste. In the relationship between five zang-organs and five flavors, sour taste enters the liver and converges, which is not conducive to the growth of yang and the release of liver qi. Dietary recuperation should be given to the viscera, that is, "suffering goes against its nature, so it is desirable."
Vegetables with acid harvest properties are: tomato, orange, orange, grapefruit, apricot, papaya, loquat, hawthorn, olive, lemon, pomegranate, ebony and so on.
