First, soak your feet

As the saying goes, "soak your feet in spring and the sun rises and takes off;" Soaking feet in summer can clear away heat and damp; Soak your feet in autumn, moisten your lungs and intestines; Soak your feet in winter and your abdomen is warm. "When soaking feet with hot water, the temperature of the feet rises, the peripheral blood vessels of the legs and feet gradually expand, and the blood flow of the feet increases accordingly. Therefore, soaking feet can improve local blood circulation, warm the yang and warm the body, reduce the pressure of blood vessels in the head and relieve headaches. Soaking feet with hot water in summer also has a good effect of eliminating dampness. In addition, studies have confirmed that soaking feet in hot water is also helpful to sleep.

Soaking feet with hot water is a pleasant thing, but it is not necessarily suitable for everyone. At the same time, we should pay attention to scientific methods.

Pay attention to the scientific method of soaking feet

1, the temperature should not be too high, and the water temperature should be 40℃~45℃.

2, the time should not be too long, it is best not to soak your feet for more than half an hour at a time.

3, the amount of water should be enough, at least to drown the ankle.

4. From 9: 00 pm to 1 1 pm, this time is the most suitable time to soak your feet.

5. Herbs vary from person to person. Putting some Chinese herbal medicines according to your own characteristics can get twice the result with half the effort, but it is best to add them under the guidance of a doctor.

Chinese medicine believes that "nourishing the liver is nourishing life". If the metabolism of the liver is abnormal, the nutrients needed by the human body can't be supplied in time, and all organs of the body can't work normally: the eyes that should be bright will be dry and dull due to liver blood deficiency, and the nails that should be smooth and tough will be dry and deformed. If the liver can't detoxify normally, the toxin will stay in the body, even the beautiful woman will become a "yellow-faced woman", and even the strong man will be depressed. If you want to be healthy, you must first protect your liver.

Pay attention to the daily conditioning of the liver

First, eat moderately. To maintain the liver, you can eat some foods rich in vitamins and protein, such as fresh fruits and vegetables. The premise is to control consumption. If the calorie intake is too high to consume, you will also get liver disease.

Second, it starts in the morning. The ancients said, "Smell the chicken and dance", which shows that morning exercise is good for your health. Liver qi is most active in the morning. At this time, you can take a walk, exercise, mobilize qi, and adjust your liver function to the best state.

Third, regular activities. When you feel tired, stretch and exercise your bones and muscles to make your blood active. Cycling after work occasionally and seemingly simple activities are all good ways to nourish the liver.

Fourth, massage acupoints. You can knock on the gallbladder meridian every day, and the gallbladder meridian is located outside the body. Make a fist with both hands and knock 50 times on the outside of the left and right thighs with a little strength.

Six main points of protecting liver

1. Get off the sofa and move.

2. Let the waistline slim down.

3. Drink coffee.

4. Sugar intake is reduced.

5. Curry tastes good.

6. Omega 3 fatty acid composition.

The liver likes to eat five kinds of food.

1. Cruciferae vegetables. Common cruciferous vegetables are Chinese cabbage, Chinese cabbage and white radish.

2. seaweed. Seaweed such as kelp and laver can help the liver to detoxify and prevent the human body from absorbing toxic heavy metals such as cadmium and other environmental toxins.

3. Bean sprouts. Bean sprouts are rich in various enzymes, which can promote the decomposition and absorption of protein.

4. Foods rich in sulfide. Onion, garlic, onion and other vegetables rich in sulfide can promote the production of glutathione in the liver, neutralize free radicals in cells, and play the role of detoxification and anti-aging.

5. berries. Berries such as blueberries and strawberries are rich in phytochemicals and have strong antioxidant effects, which can help the liver protect human cells from free radicals and oxidative stress.

Ten exercises of liver disease, conditioning the whole body.

The first section-kowtow. The whole body is upright, hands are empty, and hands and fingers kowtow gently upward. When kowtowing, you can only move your wrist, but not your elbow. When kowtowing, tap your hands backwards from your forehead, then tap your forehead from the back pillow to the left and right top edges, and tap repeatedly. The number of knocks varies from person to person, and fatigue usually stops.

Section 2-Comb your hair. Comb your hair with a wooden comb, 20~30 times per minute, 1 time per day, 3~5 minutes each time, and then gradually accelerate. First comb along the hair, then comb it backwards, then comb it forwards. When combing, the force should be even and appropriate, not too hard, so as not to cut the scalp.

The third quarter-bending over to expand the chest. Your feet are naturally separated, put your hands on your waist, bend left and right for about 30 times, then tilt forward and backward for 30 times, and then embrace your arms and expand your chest several times.

High five in the fourth quarter. Raise your hands horizontally, straighten your arms at a right angle of 90 degrees, straighten your fingers apart, and then clap your hands hard. Pay attention to the force to make the palm sound and feel the pain. Generally, about 20 times is a degree.

Section 5-Wash your hands. Take a habitual posture, eliminate distractions, be calm, erect ears, open your eyes, and cross your hands from slow to fast.

Section 6-Mixing Noodles. When washing your hands, put your hot hands flat on your face, and rub your middle fingers down from your forehead along both sides of your nose until your face is hot. Generally about 20 times, then close your eyes and rub your fingertips around your eyes.

Section 7-Rub your ears. There are many acupoints on the auricle. Rub the auricle back and forth with the index finger, middle finger and ring finger of both hands to stimulate the acupuncture points distributed on the auricle. The number of times depends on everyone's situation, generally about 20 times is the degree.

Section 8-Rub your neck. The index finger, middle finger and ring finger of both hands should be straightened and put together, and then vigorously rub the Fengchi point (the depression on both sides under the occipital bone) and Fengfu point (the middle of the hairline of the back of the neck is 65,438+0 inches), with the strength from light to heavy until fever occurs, about 20 times. Massage two acupoints can treat headache, dizziness, stroke, neck pain and other diseases caused by internal movement of liver wind.

Section 9-Breathe with contracted lips. Stand up straight, put your hands on your waist and breathe abdominal. Inhale first, pause for a moment, then shrink your lips, don't use force, exhale slowly until you finish vomiting, then take a deep breath and repeat it several times to more than ten times. Breathing with contracted lips can improve the ventilation state of the body and exercise the breathing muscles. By exercising the lungs, you can also prevent related complications.

Section 10-Walking. Walking refers to pacing informally, idly and leisurely. If the liver is healthy, the limbs can move freely; With liver injury and tendon involvement, patients naturally cannot participate in high-intensity exercise like healthy people, and leisurely walking is a scientific and reasonable way for patients with chronic liver disease.

In spring, different liver-nourishing constitutions have different nursing schemes.

Peace Constitution: That is to say, a constitution that is normal for the people. As long as you pay attention to a reasonable diet, you can stay healthy at the vernal equinox.

Qi deficiency constitution: manifested as weakness, fatigue, sweating, and easy to catch a cold. In addition to diet conditioning, you should also exercise moderately, because exercise has the effect of invigorating qi.

Yang deficiency constitution: cold hands and feet and cold stomach. The vernal equinox should have been a period of balance between yin and yang, but the weak body with yang deficiency can not balance with yin and is prone to diarrhea. Eat scientifically and keep warm.

Yin deficiency constitution: dry skin, fever in hands and feet, red face, dry eyes, dry mouth and dry stool. You can eat duck lotus root soup, lily and sesame seeds.

Blood stasis constitution: manifested as dark circles and female dysmenorrhea. Older people have thick bloodshot and ecchymosis spots on their skin. Suitable for eating some seaweed, laver, black beans, grapefruit and hawthorn.

Damp heat constitution: It is easy to get acne, acne, bad breath and yellow urine. You can eat melon, watermelon, mustard, cucumber, bitter gourd and cabbage in moderation.

Qi stagnation constitution: manifested as depression and easy insomnia. You can drink rose tea, day lily egg soup and cereal milk. At the vernal equinox, outings are very effective.

Phlegm-dampness constitution: people are obese and sleepy. People with this constitution should eat more melon, radish, seaweed, kelp and coix seed.

Allergic constitution: easy to get urticaria, easy to be allergic, and the skin will turn red as soon as it is caught. People with this constitution should eat less seafood and spicy things and drink less liquor.

In life, when you feel unwell or suffer from simple diseases, you can first choose ingredients with the same origin of medicine and food for simple diet therapy. So we need to know some basic dietary taboos.

wheat

The medicine is mild in nature, and has the functions of nourishing the heart, calming the nerves, clearing away heat and relieving vexation. As early as the Han dynasty, it was used to treat "women's dirty urgency". This disease is mostly caused by deficiency of heart yin and blood, mainly manifested as insomnia, dreaminess, palpitation, sadness and crying (equivalent to modern climacteric syndrome). In this case, we can eat wheat with jujube and licorice, usually the dosage of wheat is 30 ~ 60 grams. It should be pointed out that the medicinal properties of wheat and flour are different. After wheat is made into flour, it has no effect of clearing away heat and relieving annoyance. Cereal porridge (wheat kernel porridge) can be used for daily diet therapy, and has certain curative effect on dry mouth, upset and insomnia.

barley

Barley is generally used to brew beer, and wheat grains are often enlarged and placed in the eight-treasure porridge on the market. Chinese medicine believes that the function of barley is similar to that of wheat. Barley is raw malt after germination, which is helpful for digestion. Ergot compounds contained in raw malt can inhibit prolactin secretion. Oral raw malt soup can be used for maternal lactation (weaning). The dosage is about100g per day, usually weaned in 2-3 days. Note that malt extract also has the function of returning milk, and lactating women need special attention.

Fried malt is also made of barley. Stir-fry barley and chaff until brown, which is the main ingredient of hawthorn pill, a Chinese patent medicine for appetizing and digestion. Fried malt contains a variety of digestive enzymes. Chinese medicine says "burnt incense enters the spleen". Stir-fried malt can help digestion, strengthen the spleen and stomach and increase appetite. In clinic, stir-fried malt, stir-fried rice buds, stir-fried rice buds, various 10g and decoction are often used instead of tea. Note that fried malt also has a certain effect on milk return.

coix seed

Chinese medicine believes that coix seed is slightly cold, mainly to dispel dampness. In modern society, people's living conditions are better, and eating too much can easily lead to spleen deficiency. In addition, eating too many sweets is more likely to produce "moisture", which is caused by diet. The external environment can also cause humidity, such as living in a humid place. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that dampness is mainly manifested in tooth marks on the tongue, heavy lower limbs, joint pain, thin stool and so on. So we can use coix seed for dietotherapy, mainly porridge, which can be cooked with rice, millet, lotus seed meat and red beans. Coix seed is not easy to cook. You can soak it in water 1~2 hours before cooking, and then cook it with other rice.

Coix seed is slightly cold, and sensitive people may have mild diarrhea, so people with loose stools should not eat more for a long time. Modern medicine believes that coix seed has certain anti-tumor and exciting effects on uterine smooth muscle, so pregnant women should use it with caution.

mung bean

The content of amino acids in mung beans is relatively complete, especially phenylalanine and lysine. If it is mixed with rice, its nutritional value can be improved. Western medicine believes that mung bean has certain effects of reducing blood fat, protecting liver and detoxifying. Chinese medicine believes that mung beans are cold and have the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, relieving summer heat and diuresis. Traditional Chinese medicine generally believes that the symptoms of "fever" mainly include sore throat, bitter taste, long sore, red eyes, cold water, yellow urine and other symptoms. In these cases, you can try to drink mung bean soup, pay attention to eating with skin, and mung bean skin has stronger heat-clearing power. In summer, you can take mung beans, fresh lotus leaves and rock sugar to boil water, cool them and make herbal tea to relieve the heat. You can go to the heat rash. Chinese medicine believes that mung beans are "antidote", so don't eat mung beans when eating Chinese medicine (especially tonic). People who are afraid of cold diarrhea should eat less mung beans.

Chinese yam

Yam can tonify the spleen and stomach, kidney and yang. Some old people are sleepy, sleepy and weak during the day, and want to sleep after meals. They can eat some yam. Men who are weak can eat it. Yam has the function of tonifying kidney and strengthening yang.

Yam is different from vegetable yam and medicinal yam. The yam produced in Jiaozuo, Henan Province (called Huaiqingfu in ancient times) is the best, and it is called Huai Yam, which has strong drug power. There are more "vegetable yams" on the market, which are coarse and have relatively weak efficacy. Yam can be boiled, steamed and dipped in sugar. Some restaurants will use it to make desserts such as blueberries and yam.

Unshelled sorghum

Sorghum is hulled sorghum rice, and sorghum is divided into two kinds. Red is mainly used for wine making, while white sorghum is generally used for food. Sorghum is mild, beneficial to the spleen and stomach, and has antidiarrheal effect. People with weak spleen and stomach, indigestion and loose stool can cook porridge. Sorghum rice porridge must be soaked for half an hour before cooking, and then covered for a quarter of an hour after turning off the fire, otherwise it will be difficult to cook. You can also steam rice with rice and soak it before cooking. After the electric cooker trips, it will take some time to cook. It should be pointed out that the above-mentioned slimming porridge is not suitable for diabetic patients, and porridge has a great influence on blood sugar.

Drinking porridge can protect health and prevent diseases.

Porridge, two "bows" and one "rice", means that porridge should be based on five grains. Zhou Yingchun, chief physician of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Southern Hospital of Southern Medical University, pointed out that different porridge ingredients can achieve different therapeutic effects.

Rice porridge. Yang Li said that rice porridge has a balanced maintenance effect on the five internal organs and is suitable for most people. Glutinous rice, as a kind of rice, contains more mucus and has a good effect of invigorating qi.

Millet porridge and millet nourish the heart and stomach, which has a certain maintenance effect on the stomach and helps sleep. Millet porridge is an ideal tonic for the elderly, patients and parturients.

Corn porridge. Studies have confirmed that corn not only contains carbohydrates, protein, fat and carotene, but also contains riboflavin, calcium, magnesium, selenium and various vitamins, which helps to prevent heart disease, hypertension and hyperlipidemia.

Sweet potato porridge. Sweet potato can nourish the stomach, strengthen the spleen and prevent constipation. People with poor spleen and stomach are suitable to add sweet potatoes to cook porridge.

Oatmeal porridge Sticking to oatmeal can help reduce the level of "bad" cholesterol and prevent hyperlipidemia. Harvard University research has proved that drinking a small bowl of coarse grain porridge, such as oatmeal, every day can prolong life.

The ingredients around you can reduce the fire

The weather is getting colder and colder, and people like to eat warm food to keep warm. Therefore, hot food such as spicy hot pot, barbecue fat beef, fish, shrimp, cattle and sheep, ham and stir-fried spiced food has become a routine in winter. Chinese medicine believes that after the winter solstice, the yang in the human body begins to rise gradually. If it belongs to the constitution of excess heat, it will easily lead to the imbalance of yin and yang in the human body and the phenomenon of excessive internal fire.

Some people in life are always eager to take antipyretics after getting angry. In fact, if it is not serious, we might as well use food to reduce the toxicity of the fire first. As Sun Simiao said in the Tang Dynasty: "The essence of survival lies in eating, and not knowing the eater is not enough to survive. As a doctor, we must first understand the source of the disease, know what the disease is, treat it with food, and then order medicine. " All five zang-organs have fire. See what fire you are.
