"Every time I don't return during the day, it's spring dusk." Among the 24 solar terms, from beginning of spring to long summer is what we usually call spring. In people's minds, spring is warm and flowers are fragrant; Spring is growth, cultivation and sowing. In this season of revival of everything, human body functions have also become active.
"Spring in March, this is called hair Chen". Spring is also the season of skin allergy, allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis, epilepsy, dry cough, gastritis, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, pulmonary heart disease and other diseases, and there are many strokes induced by hypertension.
It erupts in spring. "A year's plan lies in spring", and so does health care.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that among the four seasons, spring belongs to wood, and the liver belongs to wood among the five internal organs of the human body, so the spring qi passes through the liver and nourishes the liver first. "Acid enters the liver". Don't eat more sour food in spring, so as not to damage the lungs due to excessive liver qi. You can eat some sweets to replenish your spleen. Spleen soil can help the lung to produce gold.
Live without killing, give without taking. In spring, you should always be happy and grateful, not wronged and resentful, so that qi can grow smoothly. In order to avoid stagnation of liver qi and cause symptoms such as mammary gland hyperplasia.
The weather gets warmer in spring and the days get longer. People often feel tired, sleepy and unable to concentrate, commonly known as spring sleep. Sleepiness in spring is related to the lack of protein, acidic environment and insufficient vitamin intake. "In spring, the taste should be reduced to sour and sweet to nourish the temper." Eating more foods and vegetables rich in vitamins, such as highland barley in Yuyao, has a very positive effect on relieving spring sleepiness.
To sum up, nourishing the liver is the main thing in spring, supplemented by nourishing the spleen and moistening the lungs.
