Health experts reminded that we should pay attention to the phenomenon of "late spring cold" during the rainfall. After the rain, the moisture in the air increases, resulting in low temperature and high humidity in the cold. This wet and cold climate has certain influence on human internal organs and joints.
It should be reminded that citizens should not take off their coats too early, but cover them for a period of time, and slowly adjust the balance of yin and yang to adapt to the new climate conditions.
In the early spring, when it is warm and cold, we should pay more attention to the warmth of the lower body. Warm work on legs and feet can prevent the invasion of spring disease.
I didn't wear a thick coat and down jacket, and my clothes, pants, shoes and socks were too thin. It's best to keep your legs and feet warm and follow the dressing principle of "thick down and thin up", especially for the elderly.
2. Old and infirm people should not use cold water.
According to China's theory of five elements, water corresponds to kidney, and kidney governs bone. Although there is a saying on the road to health that washing your face with cold water all the year round can play a health care role. However, in the rainy season, if the elderly and infirm wash their faces and hands with cold water, wet and cold can easily invade the joints. In addition, if there is not enough yang to drive away the cold, the dampness and coldness will stay in the hands, which will easily lead to soreness, deformation, pain and other symptoms.
In addition, the spring is still wet and cold, and it should be dried with a hair dryer in time after washing your hair. Otherwise, the water stays moist in the hairline, and then cools down, so it is easy for the wet cold to gather in the head and penetrate into the skull from the outside to the inside, leading to headache.
3. Pay attention to spleen and stomach qi stagnation in warm and humid weather.
Huangdi Neijing says that "spring governs the liver", and the liver is more active in spring. But a little carelessness can easily damage the spleen and stomach. At the same time, the rainfall increases, the humidity increases, and the dampness easily bothers the spleen and stomach. Therefore, we should pay attention to the maintenance of the spleen and stomach, strengthen the spleen and promote diuresis.
Drink water first and try to drink warm water. Some people are prone to the so-called symptoms of getting angry in spring, so it is not appropriate to drink herbal tea easily, so as not to aggravate the deficiency fire.
In addition, pay attention to the cleaning and preservation of food to avoid problems such as diarrhea. At this time, you can't blindly make up for it, so as to avoid yang leaking out, excessive growth of liver wood and injury to spleen soil. At the same time, it can avoid a series of spleen and stomach problems caused by fat and sweet taste, liver depression and spleen deficiency, and spleen loss of health.
4, the diet should be dull.
In rainy season, the climate gets warmer, but it is windy and dry, which often leads to dry mouth and chapped lips. Therefore, we should eat more fresh vegetables and juicy fruits to replenish human moisture.
Food should be flat. "Cold in spring" tends to make people stagnate, so it is not appropriate to eat hot and dry food to "add fuel to the fire". Depressed heat makes people "greedy for cold", and eating too many cold things will also "seek common ground", hurting viscera and causing stomach cold, stomach cold, diarrhea and other disorders. Therefore, the diet should be moderate, eat hot meals, hot dishes, and eat warm foods such as peppers and liquor carefully.
Ma Guansheng, a nutrition expert, said that the basic principle of the solar term diet is to give priority to cereals and diversify foods.
Ensure adequate energy intake: the energy source is mainly cereals, which can be rice and steamed bread, and pay attention to changing patterns, such as southern rice flour, northern rice flour and cakes. Pay attention to eating coarse grains often. In addition to making corn flour and sorghum noodles, you can also increase the intake of coarse grains through porridge every day. When making porridge, add some potatoes, such as sweet potato and yam, which can be made into sweet potato miscellaneous cereal porridge, yam rice porridge, lotus seed porridge, jujube porridge and so on. Eat animal food in moderation, and do not eat or eat less greasy food such as frying.
Avoid eating: avoid mutton, dog meat and sparrow meat in the first month. Don't eat raw onions and garlic. Peanuts should be cooked rather than fried.
