The plan of the year lies in spring, which can be said to be a very important season of the year, as well as health preservation. When it comes to keeping in good health, people will say that they are peaceful, but keeping in good health in spring is different. Experts said: "Spring should not be peaceful, spring must make people feel cheerful and happy, and autumn should be peaceful."
Bananas and pears are not suitable for eating.
Chinese medicine believes that yang should be raised in spring and summer, so eat more spicy things in spring. For example, people pay attention to eating spring cakes made of spring leeks on February 2 of the lunar calendar. Leek is pungent, has the function of promoting hair growth, makes people sweat slightly, and can help the body to dissipate cold. In addition, you can eat some peppers, radishes and so on.
On the contrary, it is not advisable to eat foods that nourish yin and are cold in spring (except for special patients), such as bananas, pears, lilies and tremella. Especially cold things, such as ice cream and cold drinks, will gather cold in the body, leading to spleen deficiency in summer and a series of discomfort.
It is not advisable to sweat in spring.
Everyone knows that "covering spring freezes autumn", but it is not easy to "cover" the health care effect. Experts say the degree of covering is not to sweat too much. If the weather is very hot, it is not good to have three floors inside and three floors outside, and it is not good to sweat a lot.
It is not advisable to wear single shoes too early.
As the saying goes, illness begins at the foot. Nowadays, many young girls start wearing single shoes very early, which is very bad for their health. The foot and calf are the confluence of the three Yin San Yang meridians of the human body. The inner side of the calf is the three yin meridians of liver, spleen and kidney, and the outer side is the three yang meridians of gallbladder, stomach and bladder, which is very important to the human body. We must pay attention to keeping warm and should not wear single shoes too early.
Fog is not suitable for exercise.
With the coming of spring, more and more people join the craze of sports, but foggy days are not suitable for sports. Fog beads contain a lot of harmful substances, such as dust and pathogenic microorganisms. Due to the increase of breathing ability during exercise, the lungs are bound to inhale more harmful substances.
Conclusion: Although it is early spring, it has not yet reached the real spring, so the health care work can not be ignored when the seasons alternate.
What are the taboos for spring health care?
Use Jiedu pills as soon as you avoid getting angry.
"Just arrived in the spring, my oral ulcer has never stopped, and eating Niuhuang Jiedu Pills is not a problem!" Miss Liu complained in dismay. In fact, in the eyes of experts, indiscriminate use of gunpowder when getting angry is the biggest "fire fighting" taboo.
Expert advice: spring dominates hair growth, and dryness is a major feature. Many people will have symptoms such as dry mouth and dry stool. Traditional Chinese medicine divides "getting angry" into real fire and virtual fire, and it is necessary to extinguish the fire according to "igniting fire".
For example, Niuhuang Jiedu Pill is useful for reducing excess fire, that is, the symptoms accompanied by dry stool, but it has little effect on excessive fire caused by spleen and stomach deficiency and cold. To prevent getting angry, eat more fruits and vegetables, drink more water, defecate regularly, and drink chrysanthemum tea and honeysuckle tea.
Second, avoid improper "spring cover"
Many people know that spring covers autumn, but there are two extremes in doing it: young people put on their clothes and shoes early by firepower; Old people and children tend to cover their heads, sweat and stubbornly keep their clothes on.
Expert advice: "spring cover" has three main points:
1, don't rush to "change seasons". Don't put away your winter clothes in a hurry, and wait until the temperature stabilizes before changing seasons;
2. Add or subtract clothes at any time. The climate change in spring is abnormal, and the temperature difference between morning and evening changes greatly. You can take a piece of clothing for spare, and put a small blanket when you sleep at night to avoid the cold hurting the yang;
3. Don't sweat. Excessive coverage can also lead to colds and decreased resistance.
Three bogeys, sleep when you commit "spring sleep"
Under the warm sunshine in spring, human blood vessels dilate and blood flow accelerates, which easily leads to hypoxia in the brain, which in turn leads to "sleepiness". But sleeping when you are sleepy is not good for your health. Sleeping too long will further reduce cerebral blood flow and inhibit the excitement of cerebral cortex. The more you sleep, the less you wake up, the more tired you will be.
Expert advice: to solve the spring sleep, we must seize two golden time points: first, after getting up; The second is after lunch. Huangdi Neijing mentioned: "Lie at night and get up early". That is to say, in spring, you can sleep a little later (1 1 pm), but get up early (6: 30 in the morning) to adapt to the growth of human yang.
After getting up, you might as well stretch, wash your face and massage your temples and Yongquan points. You can take a walk after lunch, walk in the sun for about 30 minutes, and then take a nap for no more than 30 minutes.
Four taboos are too sour and spicy.
"Supplementing Yang in spring and summer" is a health-preserving criterion advocated by medical classics such as Huangdi Neijing. In the relationship between five zang-organs and five flavors, sour taste has astringent effect, which is not conducive to the generation of yang qi and the release of liver qi. Eating too sour and spicy will damage the yang.
Expert's suggestion: Chinese medicine says that spring is a season of vigorous liver-qi, which is conducive to regulating the functions of major viscera, but it has one disadvantage, that is, it is easy to hurt the spleen. Sour taste enters the liver and sweet taste enters the spleen. Therefore, in spring, we should eat less acid to prevent excessive liver-qi, and eat more spicy food to soothe liver-qi and tonify temper.
Leek is the best food in spring. You can eat more but not too much. Coriander, onion, garlic, lotus seeds, jujube and yam are also suitable for spring. In addition, it is necessary to bid farewell to the warmth of winter health and replenish the spleen and stomach. Eat less hair and foods that can easily cause "excessive internal heat", such as fish, shrimp, crab and mutton. , especially patients with chronic diseases.
Five bogeys: use a set of skin care products in the end.
The external environment and skin condition in spring are very different from those in winter. In spring, the dust is flying, the sebaceous glands are exuberant and the ultraviolet content is high. If you use a set of skin care products, it is easy to have allergic reactions and the skin care effect is also discounted.
Experts suggest that skin care products should be gradually replaced in spring. After the temperature rises, the oily cream suitable for winter use can be replaced by an emulsion with less oil and water. In spring, ultraviolet rays are very strong. The most important thing in skin care is hydration and sun protection, and sensitive skin needs more attention.
Six bogeys: doors and windows are closed
In spring, the temperature rises and the humidity increases, and all kinds of bacteria and viruses begin to multiply. If the doors and windows are closed for a long time, or the air circulation is not good, it will easily lead to a cold epidemic and a high incidence of infectious diseases.
Experts suggest that ventilation in spring is more important than any season. At home or in the office, make sure to open the window twice a day for at least 10 minutes each time. It is best to form air convection, and the best ventilation time is after sunrise but before sunset.
Don't go out at home.
In winter, rest is emphasized, but in spring, it is the opposite. If you want to move, you will raise your yang, because "moving will raise your yang." After the harvest season in winter and March, people should do more outdoor activities, which is very beneficial to health.
Experts suggest that spring is the main source of hair growth. When traveling, you'd better breathe through your nose. On the one hand, it can prevent some harmful substances from "getting sick from the mouth"; On the other hand, the nasal mucosa is rich in blood vessels and the cavity is curved, which can heat and humidify dry and cold air. There are many pollutants in foggy days, so it is best not to go out for exercise.
In addition, spring exercise should be moderate. In early spring, the functions of various organs of the body are still at a low level. At this time, it is not suitable for strenuous and long-term exercise, but should start with soothing exercise, such as jogging, walking and flying kites.
Eight taboos are depressed and ups and downs.
Replenishing yang in spring is very important for nourishing liver, and regulating mood is an important part of nourishing liver in traditional Chinese medicine. If you are depressed all day, it will easily lead to stagnation of liver qi and diarrhea. If you are too angry or excited, it will also do great harm to cerebrovascular diseases.
Experts suggest that in addition to peace of mind, spring should also be cheerful and open-minded, so that the liver wood is solid and the liver qi is smooth; When you can't help getting angry, you'd better take a few deep breaths and leave the scene of the quarrel for a while; You can also raise flowers and plants in spring to keep your mood happy.
