1, maintenance methods for menopausal women
1, live regularly and be optimistic.
Menopausal women should first pay attention to their own life rules, combine work and rest, ensure their sleep time and quality, rest for half an hour at noon and keep happy. They can listen to songs and raise flowers, which can reduce some troubles.
2, comfortable living environment, improve physical and mental health
The health of menopause is also related to the environment. To keep the home environment comfortable and the indoor air fresh, people's mood will naturally get better. The room should be kept dry, because the humid environment is easy to cause a cold, so the symptoms of menopause will be more serious. In hot summer, don't turn on the air conditioner too low, preferably around 25 degrees to avoid air-conditioning diseases.
3, the clothes are loose and fit to ensure smooth blood flow.
Female menopause is prone to hot flashes, sweating and other symptoms, so menopausal health care should pay attention to loose clothes to ensure smooth blood flow. Cotton-padded jacket has good air permeability and is good for skin health, so you should wear it often. Pay more attention to the weather forecast, change clothes in time according to seasonal weather changes, and reduce the occurrence of diseases. You should wear soft shoes to prevent bone spurs due to hard soles, and pay attention to keep your feet warm and wear slippers as little as possible.
4, the diet should be diversified, not picky eaters.
We should also pay attention to the health of menopause in diet, ensure the diversification of diet and not be picky about food. The daily diet of menopausal women should contain a certain amount of protein, fat, cellulose, calcium and zinc. If they are sick, they can take some medicine according to their illness. Usually eat more soy products.
2, the performance of deficiency of both qi and blood
1, rough and dull skin
If the skin is white and red, it looks shiny, without wrinkles and spots, indicating that the blood is sufficient. On the contrary, if the skin is rough, dull, dark yellow, or has long white spots, it is a sign of poor health and insufficient blood.
2, dry hair loss is serious
Hair is thick and black, soft to the touch, that is, full of blood, dry hair, hair loss, yellowing, split, all because of insufficient blood.
3. Chest tightness and shortness of breath during exercise
If you feel chest tightness, shortness of breath, fatigue and lack of qi and blood during exercise, those who are energetic and relaxed after exercise will be fine.
Traditional Chinese medicine theory holds that "women are blood-oriented", and the body is full of qi and blood, so that the skin can be ruddy, shiny and symmetrical. Blood is driven by qi, which has the functions of hemolysis, activating blood, regulating blood, sucking blood and transporting blood. Qi deficiency leads to blood deficiency, qi stagnation leads to blood stasis, qi disorder leads to blood collapse, qi inversion leads to brushing blood, and qi stagnation leads to bloodletting.
3. How to treat menopausal constipation?
1, rub your abdomen more before going to bed.
It is best to rub the abdomen 10~ 15 minutes before going to bed every night to stimulate intestinal peristalsis.
Step 2 cut down on spicy condiments
Such as wine, strong tea, coffee, pepper, curry powder, Chili powder and so on. At the same time, it is necessary to reduce the stimulation of crude plant cellulose, eat less bamboo shoots, leeks and celery, and eat some soft, mild and less irritating foods, such as peeling and cooking some melons and vegetables, and choosing some tender cauliflower for vegetables.
3. Develop the habit of drinking yogurt every day.
After constipation, spoilage bacteria in feces multiply in large numbers. Probiotics such as active lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria contained in yogurt can inhibit the growth of spoilage bacteria and regulate intestinal flora. Yogurt also has a mild diarrhea effect and can fight constipation. In addition, bifidus factors in yogurt also have the functions of scavenging free radicals, anti-cancer and anti-aging. So you should consume 125~250 ml of yogurt every day.
4, diet should not be too light
In order to prevent and control the increase of blood lipids, it is necessary to limit the intake of fat in the diet. However, many people often go into a misunderstanding and excessively pursue a light diet with less oil. After a long time, it will be difficult to defecate because of the lack of fat in the residue in the intestine. Therefore, this part of constipation patients should pay attention to grasp the discretion of low fat, add some nut foods rich in monounsaturated fatty acids that have little effect on blood lipids, or fry them with tea oil and olive oil.
5. Eat more fruits and vegetables
Vegetables and fruits are important sources of dietary fiber. Vegetables and fruits with high dietary fiber include green beans (tender broad beans), potatoes, tomatoes, sweet peppers, garlic seedlings, leeks, spinach, amaranth, oilseed seedlings, soybean sprouts, mung bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, Chinese cabbage, apples, pears, plums and strawberries. Recommend foods containing soluble dietary fiber, such as apples, kelp, pumpkins and auricularia auricula, which can maintain the microecological balance of intestinal tract, promote the growth of probiotics and have a good effect on preventing constipation.
6. Drink water on an empty stomach in the morning
First of all, one of the causes of constipation is insufficient drinking water, which leads to slow peristalsis of the large intestine. Zheng, a nutritionist at Beijing Medical University, said that supplementing water after getting up does have the effect of eliminating constipation, because the stomach is at rest at night, and drinking water before eating in the morning will make the stomach run faster than usual, so that water can be immediately transported to the large intestine, which will increase the water content of the stool and make the soft stool better discharged. It is recommended to drink two glasses of warm water on an empty stomach in the morning.
7. Drink yogurt
Cold drinks are more irritating to people with gastrointestinal sensitivity, so some people will have diarrhea after drinking them. Probiotics in yogurt are the main reason to help digestion. Probiotics will ferment cellulose in the intestine, and the organic acids produced will promote intestinal peristalsis. However, the disadvantage of drinking yogurt in the market is that it is easy to get fat if the sugar content is too high. A cup a day can make the body absorb enough probiotics. It is better to make yogurt by DIY, which can control the sugar content, or choose yogurt fermented by soybeans, which has less sugar content.
8. Eat coarse grains properly.
After entering menopause, many people worry about getting fat and control their diet. They eat little food or eat more meat and vegetables, and eat less staple food and vegetables. The formation of defecation requires the intestinal contents to reach a certain volume, and then it will stimulate the intestinal wall after expansion, which will produce conditioned reflex. If you eat less, there will be less food residue in the intestine, and the number of defecation will be reduced, which will easily lead to an increase in intestinal water absorption, resulting in dry stool, difficult discharge and constipation. Coarse grains are rich in dietary fiber, which can keep moisture in the intestines, soften stools and promote intestinal peristalsis.
