The following is a small coup for health and disease prevention summarized by kidney friends. I hope everyone can enjoy colorful spring in a healthy and comfortable state.
1. clothes: cold-proof, warm-keeping and slow-down clothes.
The so-called "covering in spring and freezing in autumn will not cause miscellaneous diseases" means that you should not take off your thick clothes too early in spring, because spring is the season when the temperature rises gradually, and human blood vessels will gradually change from contraction to relaxation to adapt to the rising temperature.
However, in early spring, the spring breeze is still cold. Once the temperature drops suddenly, it is difficult to adapt to the sudden change of temperature, which will lead to the decline of body resistance and easily lead to seasonal diseases such as influenza. In particular, people who are old and weak and have chronic diseases, such as patients with chronic kidney disease, should be more careful to reduce clothing to prevent colds from causing further damage to the kidneys.
2. Eat: less salt, more water and more vegetables.
According to the theory of five elements in Huangdi Neijing, the five colors (red, green, yellow, white and black) correspond to the five internal organs (heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney) one by one: red governs the heart, green governs the liver, yellow governs the spleen, white governs the lung and black governs the kidney, which are also closely related to the four seasons.
Generally speaking, eat more green (broccoli and cucumber) in spring, red (carrot and tomato) in summer, white (white radish and tremella) in autumn, black (kelp and black sesame) in winter and yellow (pumpkin and plant seeds) in four seasons.
In spring, we should eat more foods rich in vitamins, trace elements and high-quality protein, such as fresh vegetables, lean meat, eggs, honey, dates, fruits and other light diets. Avoid greasy, raw, cold, sour, spicy and spicy foods to prevent internal fire.
Eat less salt and drink more water. Eating too much salt is easy to hurt the kidney. Drink plenty of water to promote metabolism and help digestion and absorption. As for how much to eat and drink, everyone's conditions are different, and how much to eat and drink is definitely different. Listen to the doctor's professional guidance.
3. Life: Environmental Health and Disease Prevention
The air is humid in spring, which is also the season of high incidence of allergies, respiratory diseases and infectious diseases.
In order to avoid diseases in spring, we should pay attention to the following points: (1) reduce exposure to humid environment, reduce poor air quality or go out in rainy days; Always open the window for ventilation to keep the indoor environment clean, dry and ventilated; Don't wear wet clothes, dry water and hair in time after bathing, and wash bedding clothes in time and take them outdoors to dry.
4. Good: Go to bed early and get up early, and do light activities.
After beginning of spring, the days became longer and the nights became shorter and shorter. In daily life, we should also go to bed early and get up early according to the change of natural day and night time, and overcome the habit of being tired, staying in bed and staying up late. Kidney friends can appropriately increase outdoor activities, stretch their bodies and dredge qi and blood; At the same time, we should also ensure adequate sleep, relieve fatigue, restore physical strength, and enhance the body's resistance, which is conducive to the recovery of the disease.
Outdoor activities can be chosen in the morning or in the period with good air, mainly with slow aerobic exercise, such as brisk walking, walking, yoga, Tai Chi, etc., to avoid strenuous exercise and sweating. When the air quality is bad, it is best to go out less. If you have to go out, you must wear a mask. Friends who are allergic to kidney should stay away from allergens and avoid contact with pollen, catkins or catkins.
Spring is the season when everything recovers, and there are vibrant scenes everywhere. Kidney friends should also remember to keep an optimistic and cheerful mood. A good and healthy attitude is also the key to preventing diseases!
