With the improvement of living standards, more and more people pay more attention to daily health care. What should they pay attention to in spring health care? Experts pointed out that spring has begun, and health care should start with nourishing the liver. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that people's liver qi begins to flourish in spring, and it is a good opportunity to regulate the liver by expelling turbidity and dredging qi and blood, with the focus on nourishing and protecting the liver.

Many people's understanding of "nourishing and protecting the liver" is that they must take nourishing drugs, or take it for granted that "eat (pig) liver to replenish the liver". Experts from Harbin Peace Hospital pointed out that there is a big misunderstanding in this concept. Nourishing and protecting the liver should be treated according to everyone's different physical conditions.

Generally speaking, nourishing and protecting the liver must first be nursed back to health from behavior: go for an outing in spring and get in touch with nature more; Adjust emotions and communicate with family and friends more; Ensure adequate sleep and so on. This can effectively resolve bad emotions and soothe the liver and regulate qi. People often say that "fire hurts the liver", "anger hurts the liver" and "excessive liver fire" are actually saying that bad emotions will destroy the balance and coordination of qi in the five internal organs, thus affecting human health.

Different liver diseases have different dietary maintenance principles, mainly in the following three categories:

1, gas stagnation type. Generally speaking, they are reluctant to talk, often sigh, depressed and pessimistic. This kind of people often have poor qi and blood, so they can eat more divergent foods, such as leeks, green onions, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, Toona sinensis and so on.

2, qi stagnation fire type. Generally speaking, it is easy to be irritable. You can eat more acidic, cool and astringent foods, such as papaya and ebony.

3, liver function is insufficient for a long time, liver yin deficiency, manifested as fatigue and dizziness, you can eat more foods that nourish liver yin, such as turtle and pig liver.
