Traditional Chinese medicine health preservation in summer

1, five grains can support life, and drink more millet porridge.

Grain is a living seed. In order to be healthy, people must eat grain, which is life-sustaining; Five fruits are the fruits and vegetables we eat to help you digest; Five animals are beneficial, and meat has the function of tonifying deficiency. In cereal, we should emphasize the benefits of eating millet. Millet can grow on any barren land and has strong vitality. Why do women in China drink millet gruel after giving birth? Because the nourishing effect of millet porridge is particularly good. Life depends on countless vital seeds, so everyone should take grains as nourishment. Millet porridge is the first choice in whole grains, not defatted rice oil.

2, air conditioning should sweat less to be healthy.

People often say that it is not hot in summer and cold in winter, and they will get sick sooner or later-what does this mean?

In winter, due to the closed storage of qi and blood, nutrition is stored to prepare for next year's hair growth. If * * * is not stored well in winter, it is easy to get fever in spring. When it is cold in winter, the pores are closed, which is helpful for qi and blood adduction. When it is hot in summer, the pores are open, which helps qi and blood to go out. At this time, if you often turn on the air conditioner and your metabolism is not smooth, will you get sick?

Many centenarians in rural areas live in bungalows, because bungalows are warm in winter and cool in summer, and these elderly people can live a long life. It is best to use a fan to cool the bungalow. Now everyone lives in the same building and needs air conditioning. The air conditioner gave off a biting cold wind. Young people may not think that gay men are over 32 and lesbians are over 28. If they stay in an air-conditioned room, they will feel a biting chill. "False evil steals the wind, sometimes avoid it." The hot wind in winter and the cold wind in summer are different from the seasonal wind, that is, the thief wind, which is particularly harmful to health.

3. Have a good breakfast and lunch, and have a good afternoon nap.

Man and nature are a unified whole, all the year round, and so is one day. Midnight is equivalent to the solstice in winter, and the yin is the most prosperous; 12 noon is equivalent to the summer solstice, with the most sunshine. People with weak spleen and stomach must eat well in the morning and at noon, because they can help you promote digestion and absorption with the help of yang in nature. Remember to eat less dinner, don't make do at noon in the morning, and have a big meal at night.

China people especially emphasize that the elderly should go to bed at noon, that is, at noon and noon, which is a very important two hours. At midnight 12 to 1, it is noon, when the yin is the most abundant and the sun is the most active. 1 1 noon to 1 noon is the time when yang is the best and yin is born. Yin He will only rise when he is alive. Only when he rises can he melt, collect and hide. If you transform them when you are alive, you won't find that feeling.

Therefore, noon and lunch break are particularly important for the elderly. In ancient China, many people ate two meals, not because they had no food. The spleen and stomach are in the best state from 9 am to 10, and the small intestine is in the best state from 2 pm to 3 pm. Therefore, it is suggested that the elderly should sleep at noon, which is extremely beneficial to the health of the elderly.
