Spring is warm and cold, and the climate is changeable, cold and hot. There is a saying that "the monkey's face changes three times a day in spring". Sometimes it is sunny, sometimes it is cold and windy, so spring breeze and spring rain are related to health.

Wear "Yichun Wu" in early spring to keep warm. Keep out the wind and cold. Reduce clothes slowly, don't change into thin clothes at once. In addition, it is necessary to warm your feet and freeze your head, that is to say, it is best not to change cotton shoes in a hurry, but to warm your feet. On the contrary, you can wear no hat. Don't sweat in the morning exercise, because in spring, the human body is full of vitality, the meridians are comfortable, the skin is slack, and the human yang is easy to vent, so it is necessary to protect the yang and be suitable for a small amount of exercise. Sweating will consume a lot of energy, damage the yang, and is not conducive to health.

Sleep "should get up early", the temperature rises gradually, "should lie down late and get up early, and take a wide walk".

The living room should be "sanitary" and the room should be cleaned frequently. Keep order.

Diet should be light, and spring is good for nocturnal emission and body fluid. Eat warm. It helps to support the yang and make the body prosperous.

To prevent diseases, we must tighten our strings. Traditional medicine believes that "a hundred herbs sprout back and all diseases break out", which means that it is easy to relapse in spring. Because it is warm and windy in spring, it is suitable for the reproduction and spread of microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses. Therefore, there are many exogenous factors in spring, which should be paid more attention to for the elderly who are weak.

Second, summer.

In summer, the days are long and the nights are short, and the heat is unbearable. The elderly have weak tolerance and poor adaptability, and the balance between life activities and the external environment is easily destroyed, which is prone to heatstroke, various diseases and accidents. It is more important to spend the summer safely.

Emotions should be "temperamental and anger-free". Strong sunshine and hot weather in midsummer, coupled with strong human yang, easily make people upset and irritable. The weather is hot, so the old people must keep calm and don't be overworked and excited. A good attitude is the best regulator of the body, which can prevent the breeding of "internal fire in the five internal organs".

Diet should be light, nutritious and scientific. The hot and humid environment provides good conditions for the growth and reproduction of various bacteria. Because the gastrointestinal function of the elderly is weak, the diet in summer must be hygienic and do not eat rotten food. The food in the refrigerator must be heated at high temperature before it can be eaten. Food should be warm, soft and light. Don't eat too much cold and greasy food. Don't overeat. If you have vomiting and diarrhea caused by improper diet, you should go to the hospital immediately.

Life should be "orderly" and daily life should be "regular" Lie down and get up early at night, take part in morning exercises, and don't be greedy for cold.

Sleep "should be adequately windproof." Summer is the season when people's hearts are full of fire and their lungs are weak. In daily life, stay up late and get up early. The air in the morning is very fresh. After getting up, you can take part in some appropriate sports activities outdoors, which is good for strengthening your physique. Sleep properly at noon to maintain energy, but because of the hot weather, sweating, large pores, the body is vulnerable to cold, it is not suitable to sleep in the open air or under the tree. In summer, the days are long, the nights are short, and because of the heat, most people sleep late, so they need to take a nap to supplement it, but they can't take a nap in the cool wind, at the air outlet of the hall or by the electric fan. Dress should be "relaxed and free", summer clothes should be simple, light and breathable, styles should be loose and comfortable, colors should be elegant and generous, texture should be sweat-absorbent and breathable, and underwear should be changed every day.

Third, autumn.

The autumn climate is in the transitional stage of "Yang disappears and Yin grows". At first, the autumn sun was like fire and the temperature was higher. After the "White Dew", there is less and less rain, the weather is dry, the day is hot and the night is cold, and the climate is hot and cold. Some elderly people often have some corresponding symptoms because of their weakened self-regulation ability, which greatly reduces the quality of life of the elderly. Therefore, if the elderly want to stay healthy and delay aging in autumn, their life and behavior in autumn should adapt to climate change and avoid the adverse effects of cold air in autumn on the human body.

Mentally, "be steady" and reduce thinking emotions. Reduce the adverse effects of cold air in autumn on human body, maintain psychological balance, pay attention to resolving depression and dispersing stagnation, and maintain a happy mood.

Diet should be "clear and dry", diet adjustment should prevent dryness, expand yin, nourish kidney and moisten lung, and use less pungent and dry foods such as pepper, leek and garlic. Use soft foods such as sesame, glutinous rice, japonica rice, honey, sugar cane and dairy products, emphasize warm foods and avoid cold foods.

Sleeping "should go to bed early and get up early", and going to bed early conforms to the collection of human yin and essence to raise "closed" qi; Getting up early to get used to Yin Qi's relaxation can stretch lung qi, slightly prolong sleep time, avoid the influence of withering and cold image, and also reduce the formation of small thrombus. In addition, in order to enhance physical fitness, cold-resistant exercise can start in autumn.

Clothing "should be frozen in autumn" should not be added too early, so that the body can gradually adapt to the cold climate and enhance its disease resistance. Pay attention to autumn dryness ",the weather is dry in autumn, and the elderly are prone to constipation if they drink less water, stay in bed for a long time and live less;" Patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage are life-threatening and should eat more fruits and vegetables. You can also rub your abdomen once after getting up in the morning for about 50 times.

Fourth, winter.

Winter and March are closed seasons. Cold weather, dry climate, frozen rivers and cracked fields are all phenomena in which yin flourishes while yang declines. Health preservation in winter should conform to the principle of storing yang in the body and protecting yang by gathering yin. Old people are prone to catch cold, so they should keep warm if they want to avoid the cold. They should mainly save their energy and see the bright side of everything in their hearts. Health preservation in winter is mainly based on "storing" gas.

Dressing "should be cold and warm", the blood circulation function of the elderly is poor, and if the room temperature is too low, the hands and feet of the elderly will be frostbitten; Moreover, if the room temperature is too high, the temperature difference between inside and outside is too large, and it is easy to catch a cold, the elderly must always pay attention to keep warm and prevent diseases. Wear clothes as wide and warm as possible, and cotton shoes should be bigger. Sprinkle a layer of raw aconite powder evenly on the sole pad, then sew it with cotton cloth and put it into the shoes, so as to prevent frostbite and make the blood flow on both feet.

Life should be "moderate" and daily life should be "regular". Go to bed early and get up late in winter and March. "Be sure to wait for the sun" and get up when the sun comes out. Going to bed early is nourishing yang to keep warm, and getting up late is nourishing yin.

Diet "should be supplemented", eat more high-protein and vitamin foods, and make supplements in time. Medicine tonic is not as good as food tonic, and people with yang deficiency eat more mutton, chicken and bovine bone marrow; People with yin deficiency eat more ducks and geese to replenish deficiency and qi, nourish the stomach and produce fluid.

The weather is sunny and "suitable for exercise". When the weather is sunny in winter, outdoor exercise can be carried out appropriately to make up for the lack of sunshine and enhance physical fitness. Exercising in cold air can increase nerve regulation function and improve resistance, but it is not advisable to sweat to prevent colds, and outdoor activities are not allowed in bad weather such as strong wind, fog, rain and snow.

In early winter, some infectious diseases are easy to spread, among which influenza is the biggest threat to the elderly. In order to effectively prevent influenza, try to avoid going to theaters, shopping malls and other public places during the influenza epidemic. The room should be ventilated frequently, and a few oranges or a small bottle of peppermint oil can be placed at the bedside. You can also smoke the room with rice vinegar, and you can remove the virus. There is a folk prescription that can improve the ability to keep out the cold and reduce the incidence rate, that is, 65438 jujubes and 5 slices of ginger decocted tea every night.

Pay attention to mental health. The occurrence, development or deterioration of many diseases in winter are closely related to people's psychological state. Therefore, we should avoid the stimulation of bad factors such as sadness, anxiety and tension, and the elderly should remain optimistic and happy.

In addition, health care for the elderly should not be discussed in winter: 1. It is not appropriate to urinate at night; 2. Doors and windows should not be closed; 3. It is not advisable to sleep with your head covered; 4. It is not advisable to drink alcohol to keep out the cold; 5. Improper heating loss; 6. It is not advisable to die of a minor illness.
