Cold dew health tips
1, psychological aftercare
There is a saying called "autumn wind and autumn rain make people sad", because the climate in autumn is getting drier and drier, and the temperature drops, which will also affect people's mood. Therefore, we should pay attention to mental health in the cold dew season, especially to remain optimistic, maintain psychological peace, converge emotions and avoid cold air.
2. Daily aftercare
When it is cool in autumn, people's life time should be adjusted accordingly. "Su Wen Si Qi Tiaoling" records: "In autumn and March, you lie down early and get up early, having fun with chickens". Going to bed early conforms to the principle of collecting yin essence in autumn, and getting up early can stretch the yang and achieve the balance of yin and yang.
After the cold dew, the days are short and the nights are long, and the temperature difference between day and night increases. Pay attention to adding clothes, especially to keep feet and stomach warm.
3. Exercise and rehabilitation
In the cold dew season, if you insist on proper physical exercise, you can not only regulate lung qi, but also improve the function of lung organs, which is conducive to enhancing the immune function of various tissues and organs and the body's resistance to external cold stimuli. You can choose mountaineering, jogging, walking, ball games, swimming and other common sports. And if possible, you can also choose traditional projects such as Wuqinxi, Tai Ji Chuan, Baduanjin, etc., which are relaxed and gentle, with little activity.
Eight taboos for cold dew health care should be kept in mind
1, to avoid fiddling around.
If you are not sick, you will not only increase your expenses, but also harm yourself. If you take too much cod liver oil, it will lead to poisoning. If you take glucose for a long time, it will cause obesity, increase blood cholesterol and easily induce cardiovascular diseases.
2. Avoid confusing the real with the fake.
The treatment principle of traditional Chinese medicine is to replenish deficiency. It does not mean that patients with asthenia should not use tonics. Deficiency is divided into yin deficiency, yang deficiency, qi deficiency and blood deficiency. Only the right medicine can make up the body, otherwise it will be counterproductive and will hurt the body.
Although health care is not as strict as treating diseases, at least the dining objects should be divided into two categories: cold and heat. Slightly cold people are afraid of cold and like heat, their hands and feet are not warm, their mouth is pale and drooling, their stools are thin, their urine is long, their tongue is pale and their pulse is heavy. Fever, fever in hands and feet, dry mouth, bitter taste, bad breath, dry stool, short and red urine, red tongue and rapid pulse. If you don't distinguish between cold and heat, it will easily lead to "adding fuel to the fire."
3. The more you avoid, the better
Eating too many supplements is harmful. It is unscientific to think that "take more tonics, treat diseases and strengthen the body without diseases". If you take ginseng antler supplements too much, it will cause bloating and not think about diet; Taking too much vitamin C can cause nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
4. Avoid all meat.
Animal food is undoubtedly a good tonic. It is not only nutritious, but also delicious. However, meat is not easy to digest and absorb. If you eat too much for a long time, you will often be overwhelmed by the elderly whose gastrointestinal function has declined. Some "by-products" in the process of meat digestion, such as excessive lipids and sugars, are often the causes of common diseases and frequently-occurring diseases in the elderly, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and cancer.
A light diet is not without supplements, especially vegetables. Modern nutrition believes that fresh fruits and vegetables contain a variety of vitamins and trace elements, which are essential nutrients for human body.
5, avoid taking medicine.
It is unscientific to value medicine over food. I don't know that many foods are also therapeutic drugs. Eating more shepherd's purse can treat high blood pressure; Eating more radishes can strengthen the stomach, promote digestion, flatten the chest, resolve phlegm and relieve cough; Eating more yam can replenish the spleen and stomach. Daily consumption of walnuts, peanuts, red dates, lentils, lotus roots, etc. It is also a good supplement.
6, avoid "into" light "out"
With the improvement of people's living standards, many families have meat and fish every day, and the food is greasy. The acidic toxic substances produced by the metabolism of these foods need to be discharged in time, and the accelerated pace of life makes many people have irregular defecation and even constipation.
Therefore, in recent years, health experts put forward a new concept of health care that pays attention to "negative nutrition", that is, paying attention to the discharge of human excreta, reducing the retention and absorption of "enterotoxin", and advocating timely and unobstructed defecation while supplementing.
7. Avoid constant "compensation"
Some people like to take some tonic according to their own tastes, and then they have changed from being unchanged for many years to "partial eclipse" and "overeating", which is not good for their health. Because drugs and food not only have health care and therapeutic effects, but also have certain side effects, long-term use will affect the nutritional balance in the body. Especially for the elderly, not only the functions of various organs have declined to varying degrees, but also they need comprehensive and systematic conditioning, and different seasons also have different demands for health care drugs and food. Therefore, it is very necessary to adjust according to different situations, and it is impossible to make up for it in the same way.
8, avoid the more expensive, the more you make up.
"Rare things are precious", noble traditional foods such as bird's nest and shark's fin have no peculiar dietotherapy function, while very common foods such as sweet potatoes and onions have dietotherapy value worthy of attention. In addition, all dietotherapy has certain objects and indications, so the medicated diet should be determined according to the needs, and "what is lacking should be supplemented", which cannot be divided according to the level, especially for the elderly, based on the principle of practical low price.
