1. What are the key points of health preservation in long summer?
1. Keep healthy in the long summer and beware of exogenous factors.
During the long summer solar term, people often wear thin clothes. Even healthy people should be wary of external factors. Once you get sick, don't use antiperspirant easily to avoid sweating and blood stasis to prevent heart attack. Therefore, in the long summer season, we should be happy, feel at ease, enjoy ourselves and avoid sudden joy and sadness. Eating a little onion in the morning and drinking a little red wine at dinner can promote blood circulation.
2. Long summer's mental health.
Health experts warn that after the long summer, the weather becomes hot, and people's minds are easily disturbed and uneasy. Therefore, at this time, people should pay special attention to mental conditioning, strengthen the maintenance of the heart, especially the elderly should not be overly excited, to maintain a happy mood, enjoy themselves, avoid sudden joy and sadness, and maintain a refreshing and cheerful state.
3. Health food in long summer supplements cool blood.
After the long summer, blood heat will bring a lot of discomfort to people, and qi deficiency and blood heat will affect people's digestive function. Therefore, don't overeat every meal and leave enough room for stomach peristalsis. Give people a relaxed and natural feeling. This summer, pay attention to cooling blood and invigorating qi, go to bed early and get up early, which is the season for people to store yang and strive for a bumper harvest.
4. Long summer diet is light.
After the long summer, the temperature rises gradually, and people will feel irritable and lose appetite. The principle of long summer diet is "nourishing yang in spring and summer", and nourishing yang focuses on nourishing the heart, which can not only supplement nutrition, but also strengthen the heart. The principle of "increasing acidity and reducing bitterness, tonifying kidney and liver, regulating stomach and regulating qi" should be adopted. Diet should be light, mainly digestible and vitamin-rich foods, and eat less big fish and meat and greasy and spicy foods. Add mung beans, lotus seeds, lotus leaves, reed roots, lentils, etc. Into japonica rice and porridge together, eat after cooling, but also play a role in invigorating the stomach and dispelling summer heat. Eating more vegetables, fruits and coarse grains at ordinary times can increase the supply of cellulose, vitamins B and C and prevent arteriosclerosis.
5. Go to bed early and get up early in summer.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "summer qi is connected with heart qi", and it is necessary to pay attention to going to bed early and getting up early in the long summer, and pay attention to "rest" to avoid sweating after exercise, and "sweating" will hurt yang qi. In terms of diet care, the principle of "increasing acidity and reducing bitterness, tonifying kidney and liver, regulating stomach and regulating qi" is adopted, and the diet is mainly light, with more vegetables, fruits and coarse grains. You can do a few small moves before getting up, which is conducive to strengthening your physique, keeping in good health in traditional Chinese medicine and prolonging your life.
6. Long summer health care avoids greed.
For most people, especially joint patients, we should avoid being greedy for cold in summer, and do not use or moderately use air conditioners and fans. In the workplace, you should tell your colleagues about your illness to gain their understanding, and try not to use air conditioning or raise the temperature properly. It is best to keep a long-sleeved dress and add and subtract clothes with the external environment at any time.
The above are some points about seasonal health care in long summer introduced by Bian Xiao, so what other health care misunderstandings are there in long summer? Let's take a look at it with Bian Xiao.
2. Beware of misunderstandings in health care in the long summer season.
Drinking more beer can relieve summer heat.
On a hot day, drinking beer does feel cool. But drinking too much will make people feel thirsty and warm all over. Because beer contains alcohol, if you drink too much at a time, the alcohol content entering the human body will be too high.
If you keep drinking beer, the feeling of "warmth" brought by alcohol will continue, and the symptoms of thirst and sweating will be aggravated.
The sooner you do morning exercises, the better.
Many people think that the earlier you do morning exercises in summer, the better. In fact, the air is not fresh before dawn or when it is foggy, which is not conducive to fitness.
According to experts' research, before 6 o'clock in the summer morning, pollutants in the air are the most difficult to spread, which is the peak of pollution. In addition, before sunrise, there was not much fresh oxygen around the green plants because there was no photosynthesis.
Practicing too early in the morning is easy to catch a cold, causing joint pain, stomach pain and other diseases. Therefore, the time for morning exercise in summer should not be earlier than 6 o'clock.
The air conditioner should be kept at a constant temperature.
Air conditioning is used in summer, and many people are used to setting the temperature at a certain value. In fact, constantly adjusting the room temperature can make people's physiological temperature regulation mechanism always in a "tense state", thus improving people's adaptability and self-protection ability, so as to avoid catching colds or other room diseases.
Of course, when the air conditioner is used for adjustment for the first time, the temperature change range should be controlled between 3 degrees Celsius and 5 degrees Celsius; After half a month, the amplitude can be gradually increased to 6 degrees Celsius to 10 degrees Celsius. Don't change the temperature too suddenly, and it is advisable to adjust it at 1 Celsius to 2 Celsius every time.
The darker the sunglasses, the more you can protect your eyes.
Many people think that the darker sunglasses are, the better they can protect their eyes. This view is wrong. If the color of the lens is too dark, it will seriously affect the visibility and cause harm to the eyes. Experts suggest that it is best to choose sunglasses lenses that can transmit 15% to 30% visible light, especially gray and green.
Summary: I hope everyone can notice some key points and misunderstandings of seasonal health care in long summer introduced in the above small series, especially the light diet and the emphasis on mental health care.
3. Vegetables that must be eaten for health in the long summer.
1, pea
On this long summer day, I want to eat pea rice. Because peas with shells are shaped like eyes, which are common eye diseases in ancient times, people eat peas to pray that their eyes are as clear as fresh peas in a year, and there are no diseases and disasters. Every100g of peas contains 0.49mg of vitamin B/kloc-0, which is three times that of edamame. Sweating in hot weather will lose some B vitamins, so peas are very suitable for summer consumption.
2. Garlic seedlings
With the progress of agricultural science and technology, garlic seedlings can be seen all year round, but in a sense, now is a good time for garlic seedlings. It goes without saying that garlic seedlings have high nutritional value. Eating garlic seedlings can effectively prevent diseases such as influenza and enteritis caused by environmental pollution. Garlic seedlings have a certain protective effect on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which can prevent thrombosis and protect the liver.
3. Bamboo shoots
There is a custom of eating "foot bone bamboo shoots" in the long summer. "Foot bone bamboo shoots" are actually wild bamboo shoots. There are many kinds of wild bamboo shoots, such as black bamboo shoots and arrow bamboo. People buy bamboo shoots, peel and flatten them, and then cut them into small pieces of about 4 cm, which look like the shape of foot bones. From the long summer to the beginning of the busy farming season, people eat "bamboo shoots with feet and bones" to show "healthy feet and bones" (healthy body).
4, edamame
Edamame is fresh soybean, so it is called edamame because there are fine hairs on the pods. Fresh edamame with light green pods and pleasant greenery is a very popular vegetable in summer. Eating edamame in summer can prevent malnutrition and heatstroke caused by sweating and loss of appetite. Soybeans can be boiled directly with skin or fried, such as fried diced chicken with soy beans.
5, pea seedlings
From Grain Rain to Changchun, the most suitable vegetable is pea seedlings. Bean sprouts are slippery and slightly cold, and they are cool food in hot and dry seasons.

6. purplish red
Amaranth is a vegetable in the long summer season. After eating amaranth, there is red soup left in the dish basin in order to win the title of "red". Amaranth has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, astringing and stopping bleeding, diminishing inflammation and swelling, and treating dysentery, and has certain auxiliary therapeutic effects on red and white dysentery caused by damp heat and red eyes and sore throat caused by liver fire.
7. Broad beans
Jiangnan area likes to avoid eating beans in long summer, so broad beans are also called long summer beans. Many people also cook broad beans and rice in the same pot, which is called "broad bean rice". Broad bean has the effects of invigorating qi and spleen, promoting diuresis and reducing swelling, and is especially suitable for hot and humid summer. Young broad beans can be eaten directly after being cooked, and old broad beans can be used for cooking and porridge.
