1, it is appropriate to dispel summer heat and nourish yin.

After beginning of autumn, the temperature difference between day and night increased. In diet, we should persist in dispelling summer heat and eat more foods that nourish yin and moisten the lungs. Medical experts believe that rising heat in autumn is easy to hurt body fluid. Therefore, the diet should nourish yin and moisten the lungs, and you can eat some soft foods such as sesame, glutinous rice, japonica rice, honey, loquat, pineapple, dairy products, etc. to benefit the stomach and promote fluid production. In addition, eat more beans and other foods, and eat less greasy and sticky foods.

Considering that the weather may still be hot, citizens can eat more vegetables and fruits to relieve summer heat, and they can also supplement vitamins and minerals in time to neutralize the excess acidic metabolites in the body, thus clearing away heat and detoxifying. Vegetables should be juicy, such as cucumber, wax gourd, tomato and celery. Fruits should be eaten with products that nourish yin and promote fluid production, such as grapes, watermelons, pears and bananas. In addition, it should be reminded that beginning of autumn eats a lot of fruits and vegetables after birth, which is easy to cause gastrointestinal diseases. Therefore, people with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold should be careful not to eat too much.

2, regulate the spleen and stomach

In fact, for a long time after beginning of autumn, the temperature was still relatively high and the air humidity was relatively high. After the bitter summer, many people often have spleen and stomach deficiency and cold. Under such climatic conditions, regulating the spleen and stomach should focus on clearing heat, promoting diuresis and strengthening the spleen, so as to expel the evil of damp-heat in the body and promote the recovery of spleen and stomach functions.

People with spleen deficiency often have poor appetite, weak limbs and sallow complexion. In autumn, you may wish to eat some healthy and stomach-benefiting foods moderately to promote the recovery of spleen and stomach functions, such as Euryale ferox and yam.

After a summer, people's physical energy consumption is great, especially some elderly people, most of whom are deficient in spleen and stomach. Therefore, when choosing food, it should not be too cold, such as watermelon, pear and cucumber. Eat less.

3. Focus on nourishing yin and tonifying deficiency.

Autumn is a good time to nourish yin and tonify deficiency, but autumn tonic can't be supplemented indiscriminately. Only by knowing your own physique can you make supplements according to your symptoms.

If the breathing is shallow and short, the voice is low, and the spirit is tired and lazy, the exercise will sweat, the appetite will drop, and the tongue will be pale, which belongs to the constitution of qi deficiency. It is the easiest way to make water or porridge with astragalus, codonopsis pilosula and American ginseng.

If the face is pale, the lips are pale, the night heat and night sweats, the skin is dry, and the tongue is red without coating, it belongs to the constitution of blood deficiency. You can use angelica, red dates, Polygonum Multiflori Radix and Mulberry to cook porridge, and you can also add some when stewing chicken soup and meat.

If the cheekbones flush, dry mouth and throat, night sweats, less and red urine, constipation and knotting, red tongue with little fur, it is yin deficiency constitution. Ophiopogon japonicus, Schisandra chinensis, Chinese yam, lily and the like can be used. And you can put a few flavors when cooking porridge.

4. Adjust your mood and beware of autumn dryness

People often lose too much after sweating in summer, and there will be insufficient nutrition and water in the body. After entering autumn, the weather is getting colder and the climate is dry, which is prone to autumn dryness. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that dryness is the evil of six evils and the main qi in autumn. Dry, easy to consume body fluids. A series of common symptoms, such as dry mouth and tongue, stuffy nose and sore throat, dry skin, dry stool and irritability, are called "autumn dryness syndrome" in medicine.

The elderly have poor adaptability and tolerance to autumn climate change, so they should pay more attention to prevention. To prevent dryness in autumn, the basic principles should be nourishing yin and clearing dryness, moistening lung and promoting fluid production. After beginning of autumn, it was mainly warm and dry, manifested as damp heat, yin deficiency and vigorous fire. The high temperature weather of "autumn tiger" is inevitable in early autumn. This kind of weather can easily make people feel irritable, so we should actively guard against "emotional heatstroke".

To achieve inner peace, spiritual peace and comfortable mood, we must avoid feeling sad, even if we encounter sad things, we must take the initiative to resolve them. At the same time, we should also restrain ourselves and adapt to the calm atmosphere in autumn. If the human body violates the qi gathered in autumn, it will hurt the lung qi. Lung qi is damaged in autumn and pathological changes will occur in winter. This is because people's ability to nourish and collect gas in autumn is not strong enough, and their ability to nourish and store gas in winter is not strong enough.

5, food, clothing need mildew.

In beginning of autumn season, the rainfall is increasing, the humidity is high, the weather is sultry, and food and clothes are prone to mildew. Generally speaking, when the temperature reaches above 35℃, the relative humidity will increase, and mildew will easily occur. Gastrointestinal diseases will occur after eating moldy food, such as diarrhea, vomiting, enteritis, dysentery and so on.

Foods that are prone to mildew are: bread, cakes, cooked meat, fish and shrimp, milk, eggs, peaches, bananas, sugar cane, rice, beans and so on. Moldy clothes, sheets and bedding can also cause skin allergies. It should be reminded that cooked meat in sealed packages should be eaten within one day after opening. If it takes a long time, it should be fully heated before eating without confirming deterioration. If milk goes bad, you can't drink it. Moldy rice, bread and cake must not be eaten.

6, need to prevent "air conditioning disease"

After beginning of autumn, the air-conditioning in the office is still the same, but people are prone to air-conditioning diseases while enjoying the cool breeze. Especially after beginning of autumn, the weather is cooler in the morning and evening, and if you are not careful, you will have abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea, cold, waist and shoulder pain and other symptoms. After beginning of autumn, it is cold in the morning and evening, so it is not easy to turn on the air conditioner for a long time. It is best not to turn it on at night or only to turn on dehumidification. This can not only reduce the temperature and dispel the summer heat, but also prevent air-conditioning diseases. Second, people in air-conditioned environment often drink ginger tea. People who are weak can prepare a coat in the office to keep out the cold.
