How to keep fit in autumn
1, eat more lung-moistening food. The weather is crisp and dry in autumn, and the dry air in autumn is easy to hurt the lungs. Therefore, the diet in autumn should be light, eat less fried things and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. Vegetables should be Chinese cabbage, spinach, wax gourd, cucumber and tremella. Meat can be eaten as rabbit, duck and herring.

2. Eat more sour food. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "excessive lung qi can inhibit liver wood, so excessive acidity can strengthen liver wood" and "sweet and sour nutrition" Therefore, eating more acidic foods can stimulate the body to secrete more body fluids, thus achieving the purpose of reducing dryness and moistening the lungs. On weekdays, you can add more vinegar to your meals. Hawthorn, autumn pear cream and grapefruit are also acidic foods for nourishing yin and moistening dryness. It should be noted that some people like to eat sour plums, which are actually not bad, but sour plums are alkaline. Eating too much will affect the digestive function of the stomach and easily cause ulcers.

3. Eat more nutritious food. Eat more radish, lotus root, banana, pear, honey, yam, lily, tremella, pig's trotters, medlar, red dates and other foods that moisten the lungs, promote fluid production, nourish yin and clear dryness.

4. Drink plenty of water. Proper drinking water is an indispensable maintenance measure for moistening and preventing dryness in autumn, which can prevent the symptoms of rough skin, wrinkled skin and itchy skin caused by dry climate in autumn. In addition, drinking plenty of water can also promote metabolism in the body and help everyone detoxify and beautify in autumn. It is better to drink a small amount of water often than to binge. Drinking a lot of water at a time will increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and cause discomfort. Only a small amount of slow drinking can have a great moisturizing effect on the mouth, nose, pharynx, larynx, esophagus and even trachea.
