From the perspective of health care, autumn is a good season for health care, especially in the solar term of autumnal equinox, where people's qi and blood are half outside and half inside, so autumn is the best time to go out for activities, because activities help qi and blood from the inside out and from the outside in. People are creatures living in the natural environment, so health care must not violate this environmental law. If you violate this law, this law will undoubtedly punish you. There is no doubt about it.
In autumn, it is especially important to take food supplements. You can eat more vegetables, appropriately increase foods such as fish, lean meat and eggs, and also eat more foods such as chicken, soft-shelled turtle, longan, litchi, walnut meat and fungus. These foods are rich in protein, fat, carbohydrates, calcium, phosphorus, iron and other nutrients, which can not only supplement the heat consumed by cold in winter, but also invigorate qi and nourish blood and tonify deficiency, especially suitable for the weak.
In autumn, lung qi is strong, and Chinese medicine believes that "excessive lung qi inhibits liver wood, so much acid 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.
In addition, eat more digestible food in autumn. It is best to blanch vegetables before eating, and eat less cold food such as salad. Cool fruits such as watermelon and cantaloupe are easy to hurt spleen and stomach yang, so you can eat apples, grapes and oranges in moderation.
