Pay attention to nourishing yin and drink plenty of water.
In dry winter, more than 600 ml of water evaporates through the skin every day, so it is very important to replenish water. An adult should drink at least 1500ml of water every day, while drinking 2000ml of water in autumn and winter can ensure the lubrication of lungs and respiratory tract.
The correct amount of drinking water should be adjusted according to one's daily activities. Under normal circumstances, ordinary people should drink at least 1.5~2L of water every day. Control the water consumption at 1~2 cups each time.
Wear clothes to keep warm.
Some people are careless and didn't add clothes in time when it was cold; Some people wear less clothes and don't button their coats for beauty. Early in the morning and at night when the cold wind is strong, the abdomen is easy to catch cold.
Especially for women with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, once it is cold, they will have stomachache and diarrhea, which is a natural reaction of gastrointestinal tract. The best and most convenient way is to put on more clothes, especially to wrap your waist and abdomen tightly.
Drink salt water early and honey late.
I often feel thirsty after autumn, and drinking boiled water alone can't resist autumn dryness. The water in the human body will soon be evaporated or excreted, so it should be "salt water in the morning and honey soup at night".
Drinking salt water during the day and honey water at night is not only a good way to replenish human body water, but also a good diet for keeping fit and resisting aging in autumn. At the same time, it can prevent constipation caused by dryness, killing two birds with one stone.
Pay attention to diet to prevent autumn dryness.
Eat more warm food, such as sesame, walnut, glutinous rice and so on. You can also eat more spicy, sour, moist or lung-lowering fruits and vegetables, especially white radish and carrot.
Although eating more "bitter" fruits and vegetables is the main way to maintain health in the autumn equinox, you should not eat too much and support too much, so as not to cause gastrointestinal stagnation. It is worth noting that after the autumnal equinox, the cold atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger. People with poor spleen and stomach and frequent diarrhea should pay attention to the consumption of fruit, otherwise it is easy to induce or aggravate the disease.
Don't take a bath for too long.
Don't take a bath for too long in autumn and winter, which will make the oil on the skin lose protection, make the skin drier and itchy, and even cause wrinkles and dehydration.
It is recommended to take a bath for 20 minutes and take a shower for 3 to 5 minutes. It is recommended that the bath water temperature be between 24℃ and 29℃.
Sleep an extra hour on World Sleep Day.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that autumn and winter are yin orders, and autumn harvest and winter storage. Therefore, in autumn and March, lie down early and get up early, have fun with chickens, and raise the harvest. In winter and March, if you lie down early and get up late, you must wait for the sun, and the way to raise Tibet is also. "
"Get up early in autumn and get up early in winter." It is the main way to sleep at this time. For the specific sleep time, it is recommended to rest at midnight every night and try to fall asleep at midnight.
Exercise more to prevent autumn deficiency
In order to avoid feeling tired at noon and keep energetic all day, most fitness instructors recommend doing more moderate-intensity exercise, even if the heart beats 70% to 80% of the target heart rate.
Eat fruit instead of melon.
There is a folk saying that "autumn melons hurt the stomach". Some delicious melons are mostly yin cold, and eating too much will damage the spleen and stomach, so enough is enough.
Remember to supplement vitamins.
Vitamins play an important role in human immune system. When the body resists foreign invasion, the number and vitality of various immune cells are related to vitamins.
Therefore, in the cold season of autumn and winter, don't forget to take vitamin C tablets every day, and you can also eat more fresh vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin C, such as kiwifruit and oranges.
Pay attention to psychological adjustment
Sunbathing can appropriately relieve seasonal depression. Seasonal depression will develop with the change of seasons, mainly manifested as whether there is spirit, low mood, decreased work efficiency and so on. These bad performances will gradually disappear in the sun.
At the same time, proper nutrition should be supplemented. Food contains amino acids and vitamins, which have an important influence on people's mental health.
For paranoid people, if they lack certain nutrients, it may also lead to depression. At this time, they can eat more foods containing vitamin B, such as fish and coarse grains.
