What is the principle of TCM health preservation and nourishing in spring?
In spring, the ice and snow melt, and everything sprouts and is full of vitality. The human body has also begun to adapt to this change and become active, and its metabolism and functional activities have gradually strengthened. If you can adapt to the seasonal changes at this time, it is very beneficial to your health to choose the corresponding tonic method. For people who have some chronic diseases or are usually weak, in the process of transition from winter to spring, due to the increase of consumption and poor physical foundation, it is easy to have "recurrence of old injuries". At this time, appropriate supplements should be made.

The principles of spring tonic are as follows:

1, nutrition should be increased in spring, so that the human body can get timely compensation because of the gradual increase in spring consumption.

2. Chinese medicine believes that "spring is based on stomach qi", so it is necessary to improve and promote the digestion and absorption function. Whether it is food supplement or medicine supplement, it should be conducive to strengthening the spleen and stomach, tonifying the middle energizer and benefiting qi, so as to ensure that nutrients are fully absorbed.

3. The humidity in spring is higher than that in winter, which is easy to cause damp-temperature disease. Therefore, on the one hand, we should strengthen the spleen and dry the dampness, on the other hand, we should also pay attention to diuresis and osmotic dampness in food supplement and medicine supplement.

4. According to the deficiency syndrome of patients with chronic diseases, give relevant food supplements and medicine supplements.

5, food supplements and medicine supplements should be more peaceful, unless necessary, you can't blindly use spicy and warm products, so as not to aggravate the fire and harm human health when the temperature rises in spring.

In early spring, the temperature is still low, and the human body needs to consume energy to maintain the basal body temperature to keep out the cold. In early spring, the nutrients should be mainly high in calories. In addition to cereal products, we should also choose foods such as soybeans, sesame seeds, peanuts and walnuts to replenish energy in time. Cold stimulation will accelerate the decomposition of protein in the body, which will lead to the decline of the body's resistance and cause diseases. Therefore, it is necessary to supplement high-quality protein foods such as eggs, fish, shrimp, beef, chicken, rabbit meat and bean products in early spring.
