1, beginning of autumn should go to bed early and get up early.
It is the time when the weather is crisp in beginning of autumn. It is good for chickens to go to bed early and get up early. Going to bed early conforms to the convergence of yang, and getting up early stretches lung qi to prevent excessive convergence. Beginning of autumn is the season of early autumn, and the heat is not over. Although there is a cool breeze, the weather is changeable. Even in the same area, there will be a situation of "four seasons in one day and different days in ten miles". Therefore, it is not advisable to wear too many clothes, otherwise it will affect the body's ability to adapt to the cold climate and it is easy to catch a cold. Therefore, according to climate change, we should appropriately increase or decrease clothes to avoid catching a cold. In addition, after outdoor activities, you should dry your sweat in time.
2. beginning of autumn must prevent and control air-conditioning diseases.
In the hot season, many families and offices are air-conditioned, and people are prone to "air conditioning disease" while enjoying the cool breeze. Especially after beginning of autumn, the weather is cooler in the morning and evening. If you don't pay attention, you will have abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea, cold, waist and shoulder pain and other symptoms. There are three points for attention: First, after beginning of autumn, it will be cold in the morning and evening, so it is not easy to turn on the air conditioner for too long. It is best not to turn it on or just turn on dehumidification at night. 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 soup. Ginger has three functions: sweating, relieving exterior syndrome, warming stomach, stopping vomiting and detoxifying, which can effectively prevent and treat "air conditioning disease". Third, patients with chronic diseases such as asthma and chronic bronchitis and people with weak gastrointestinal function are not easy to turn on the air conditioner. Avoid direct blowing and cover your abdomen if necessary.
3. beginning of autumn must also prevent and cure pinkeye.
Pink eye is the high incidence period of solar terms in beginning of autumn. In late summer and early autumn, when the seasons cross, the heat is still the first, viruses are rampant, and bacterial infections often occur. Lack of sleep makes you prone to get pink eye, so you must pay attention to personal hygiene. Strictly improve personal hygiene and collective hygiene. Patients in acute phase should be isolated to avoid infection and prevent epidemic. Strictly disinfect the used washing utensils, handkerchiefs and used medical appliances of patients to prevent one eye from being infected when the other eye is sick. In addition, beginning of autumn has less humidity and more floating dust, and flowers and trees have started a new round of metabolism. The increase of allergens makes people with allergies more susceptible to allergies. During this period, we should also pay attention to avoid contact with allergens and strengthen exercise.
How to adjust the healthy diet in beginning of autumn?
The starting principle of autumn tonic is "less spicy and more sour". Try to eat less irritating foods such as onion, ginger, garlic, leek and pepper, spicy, fried, alcoholic and dry puffed foods, and eat more sour fruits and vegetables, which will help nourish the liver. Proper consumption of some foods or drugs with the functions of invigorating spleen, clearing away heat and promoting diuresis can make damp-heat evil in the body excrete stool, and can also regulate the function of spleen and stomach, laying a foundation for health in the middle and late autumn and even winter. Compared with meat, leaves, cauliflower and some fruits and vegetables have more prominent light tonic effects, such as eggplant, fresh lotus root, mung bean sprouts, loofah, cucumber, wax gourd, bitter gourd and other light foods have the function of clearing heat and drying dampness. Chinese medicine also advocates drinking porridge every morning after beginning of autumn, which is beneficial to strengthening the spleen, nourishing the yin of the spleen and stomach, and balancing the yang.
1, the heatstroke prevention and cooling in beginning of autumn will continue.
Food for clearing away heat and relieving summer heat cannot be taken away from the table at once. Generally speaking, this diet can prevent heatstroke, stop sweating and rehydrate, and also stimulate appetite. Therefore, drinking some mung bean soup or eating lotus seed porridge and mint porridge is very beneficial. Eating more fresh fruits and vegetables can not only meet the needs of the human body, but also supplement the potassium lost through perspiration. Cold diet should be reduced. After a long trip to Xia Hou, people's physical exertion is very high, especially some elderly people, most of whom have weak spleen and stomach. Therefore, when choosing food, it should not be too cold, such as watermelon, pear, cucumber, grape and so on. Its taste is cold, eating more may hurt the spleen and stomach, and eating less. Dietary nutrition should be strengthened. You can't make your diet too light just to clear away heat and relieve summer heat. In fact, when you come in early autumn, you can eat meat properly. Many foods, such as ducks, loaches, fish, lean pork and seafood, can not only remove the heat in summer, but also nourish you, so you can eat them with confidence.
After a hot and dry summer, a lot of moisture and virtual fire accumulated in the body. At this time, it is advisable to eat more heat-clearing and dehumidifying food. Such as radish, lotus leaf, buckwheat, corn and crucian carp. Eating more radishes can dispel lung and stomach fire, buckwheat noodles can dispel dampness and clear heat, and corn can invigorate the spleen and dispel dampness.
2, beginning of autumn wants to raise lungs
After beginning of autumn, Yang declined and Yin rose, and nature began to change from growth to collection. According to the principle of four seasons, yin qi is nourished in autumn and winter. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the lungs correspond to autumn, and autumn is dry, and qi dryness hurts the lungs. Lung-qi deficiency reduces the body's tolerance to bad stimuli and is prone to diseases, because it needs to moisten dryness, nourish yin and moisten the lungs. According to the theory of Five Elements Prosperity, the liver, heart, spleen and stomach are in a weak stage at this time, while the lung function is in a vigorous stage after beginning of autumn. According to the principle of harmonizing yin and yang and balancing the body, it is necessary to strengthen the aftercare of these organs, so that the lung qi will not be too biased and affect the health.
To make the lungs work healthily, we must first moisten the lungs. The best way is dietotherapy, that is, eat more foods that moisten the lungs. Lily is the first choice, which has the functions of moistening lung and relieving cough, nourishing yin and clearing heat, clearing heart and calming nerves; Secondly, eat more foods that moisten and clear the lungs, such as carrots, soy milk, oranges, sugar cane, radishes, tremella, etc., and eat less spicy and dry things such as peppers, onions, ginger and garlic. It is the peak season for pears to go on the market at present. People might as well eat a pear every morning and evening. If they can, they will cook pears with rock sugar, Fritillaria cirrhosa and honey every other day, and the effect is better.
4. beginning of autumn prevents constipation.
Drying is the main air in autumn. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that dryness is easy to hurt the lungs, and the lungs are closely related to the large intestine. They are "exterior and interior", and the lung dryness moves down to the large intestine, which is easy to cause intestinal dryness and constipation. Therefore, we should pay attention to conditioning in life, and drink a cup of warm boiled water or honey water or juice on an empty stomach in the morning to soften the feces. Diet should not be too particular, nor should it be partial to food. It is advisable to eat more fruits and vegetables and increase the content of cellulose in the diet to stimulate intestinal peristalsis and prevent constipation. Constipation patients can take cassia seed 15 ~ 30g on weekdays, and make tea every day after slight decoction. Those who suffer from constipation, short and red urine, dry mouth, bad breath and even abdominal distension and abdominal pain due to heat accumulation in the stomach, can take 30 grams of Cassia seed, 30 grams of Ge Fen and 50 grams of japonica rice. Stir-fry Semen Cassiae until slightly fragrant, then add water to decoct juice, add Ge Fen and japonica rice to cook porridge, add appropriate amount of rock sugar to taste, and cook for 1 ~ 2 minutes before taking.
