Go to bed late and get up early in spring, do more outdoor activities, stretch your body and make your day more energetic. Fresh air in the morning is conducive to discharging harmful substances deposited in the respiratory tract at night and promoting metabolism. However, it is worth reminding that due to the deterioration of the functions of various organs of the elderly, don't get up immediately after waking up in the morning, because the ligament tissue of the elderly is loose. If you suddenly change from lying position to standing position, it is not only easy to sprain your back, but also may affect your nervous system. People with high blood pressure and heart disease may have an accident if they suddenly change their posture. After the old man wakes up, he can stretch himself in bed, stretch his limbs and joints, and lie in bed for a while before getting out of bed. In addition, the temperature in early spring is warm and cold, just like a child's face, it changes when it is said, and cold waves often strike, so you can't dress carelessly.
In spring, due to the acceleration of human metabolism, the consumption of nutrients increases accordingly, and the diet should be warm and nutritious. Should be based on the principle of strengthening the spleen and supporting yang, avoid being too sour, light and delicious, avoid being greasy and cold, especially avoid adding more pungent and hot products, such as ginseng and spirits, so as not to help heat get angry. Choose nourishing and nourishing products, such as soybean sprouts, mung bean sprouts, tofu, fermented soybean, barley, wheat, jujube, lean meat, fish, eggs, peanuts, black sesame, citrus, onion, ginger, garlic, coriander, honey and so on. Because there are few fresh vegetables in winter, it is easy to cause vitamin deficiency, so when spring comes, we should eat more fresh vegetables, such as bamboo shoots, spring leeks, rapeseed, spinach, celery, shepherd's purse, Malan vegetables, medlar, Toona sinensis and so on.
The air is fresh in spring, and this environment is most conducive to expelling the old and absorbing the new and nourishing the viscera. Doing more exercise in spring will enhance immunity and disease resistance, reduce the occurrence of influenza and other diseases in a year, and make people think quickly and not be tired easily. People can choose outdoor activities according to their age and physical condition, and the amount of exercise should not be too large, so as not to sweat and hurt the yang, and they will be energetic, relaxed and comfortable after exercise. Generally, you can choose simple activities, such as Tai Ji Chuan, walking, jogging, hiking, flying kites and swinging.
In spring, besides paying attention to diet and daily life, we should also pay attention to preventing various diseases. Because the spring is warm and cold, the climate is changeable, bacteria and viruses are easy to breed and spread, and diseases such as influenza, pneumonia, bronchitis, meningitis, scarlet fever, mumps and viral myocarditis are easy to occur. Therefore, we must pay attention to hygiene, wash clothes and quilts frequently, remove pests, open windows for ventilation, improve our defense ability, and go to public places less when infectious diseases are prevalent to avoid infection.
