In addition, pears and water chestnuts are peeled and cooked, which can clear away heat and moisten the lungs; If you can't digest well, you can eat more radishes, regulate qi and eliminate phlegm and stomach. Boiling water with orange peel can eliminate phlegm and quench thirst.
Therefore, men should have a light diet in spring and eat more fresh vegetables, such as spinach.
2. Get enough sleep.
In spring, men often feel sleepy. They don't wake up easily in the morning, but they are sleepy during the day. This is because the temperature rises in spring, the human activity increases, the peripheral blood vessels on the body surface begin to relax, and the blood flow on the body surface increases, which makes the brain lack of oxygen supply and produces the phenomenon of "spring sleep".
To this end, men should actively coordinate and adapt to the body, and it is best to take a nap for about an hour at noon every day to make up for the lack of sleep in spring. Arrange appropriate sports activities in the afternoon, such as walking, playing Tai Ji Chuan and doing aerobics.
3. Pay attention to cold and warmth.
Ancient doctors once said that "spring clothes should not be thin". Spring is warm and cold, the temperature is changeable, the clothes are thin, and the warm-keeping measures are unfavorable, so it is easy to catch cold and get sick.
In particular, men's physiological function declines and their adaptability to climate change is poor. Intentional "spring cover" is particularly important. Men's clothes should be increased or decreased at any time according to their figure and climate change. Clothes should be soft and light, close to the skin to keep warm.
4. Learn to eat scientifically.
In spring, everything recovers, so some nutrients our bodies need will increase, while men are in poor health, so it is very important for them to ensure adequate calorie intake.
Medicine believes that "medicine and food are homologous, and medicine is not as good as food". The concepts of nutrition, food supplement and dietotherapy are all scientific, which suggests that people should have good eating habits and pay attention to scientific methods.

5. Be careful of catching a cold.
Although the temperature rises in spring, it is often changeable, so there are often some phenomena of excessive temperature difference in the morning and evening.
Therefore, men are prone to catch a cold, which in turn leads to acute bronchitis, pneumonia, asthma and other diseases. Therefore, in spring, men should always pay attention to increasing or decreasing clothes and wear masks when going out to avoid taking off winter clothes prematurely. Once you catch a cold, you should seek medical advice in time. The sooner you take the medicine, the better the effect.
6. Pay attention to daily life.
From last winter to this spring, men's regulatory center and physical function are still in a slow state. At this time, men should keep the indoor air fresh and insist on ventilation every day.
Second, keep the bedroom dry, wash and dry the bedding frequently;
Three-bedroom should have harmonious colors and peaceful atmosphere, but also maintain the right amount of flowers and plants; Fourth, soak your feet with warm water and massage your feet before going to bed.
In addition, it is a physiological phenomenon for men to be sleepy in spring, so don't be afraid. As long as the adjustment is good, this phenomenon will naturally disappear. However, men should avoid "falling in love". Too much sleep will slow down metabolism and blood circulation, which is not conducive to the discharge of turbid qi.
7. Moderate exercise.
Spring is especially suitable for going out.
Fourth, keep warm and safe. The weather is changeable in spring, so it is especially important for men to keep warm. At the same time, safety awareness should be strengthened and measures should be put in place to avoid accidents.

In spring, peach blossoms and willows are green, sunny and full of vitality, which is most beneficial to the human body. Men should adapt to the vitality of spring, adjust their mood, maintain a quiet, cheerful and comfortable spirit, avoid irritability, and keep the growth of liver qi normal and smooth.
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes "nourishing yang in spring and summer and nourishing yin in autumn and winter". If a person nursed back to health in spring, this season is not only not sick or less sick, but also very beneficial to disease prevention and health preservation in summer.
9. Prevent and cure diseases.
Rising temperature in spring is beneficial to the growth and reproduction of microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses. At the same time, due to the impermanence of climate change, it threatens the health of men in China. Therefore, men should enhance their awareness of self-prevention and achieve early prevention and early treatment.
10. Men should be careful to prevent stroke.
In spring, men must prevent the occurrence of cerebrovascular diseases. This is because the temperature is unstable in spring, cold waves often attack and the air pressure changes greatly. In the process of every temperature change, the expansion and contraction of human blood vessels will be difficult to adapt, which will lead to a stroke.
Men's dietary taboos in spring
1, to avoid more

The three months of spring are the season when everything in nature recovers and all kinds of creatures flourish. People should also conform to the laws of nature, go to bed early and get up early, relax after getting up, and take a leisurely walk in the yard to ease their mood.
There should be a gradual adaptation process from "going to bed early and getting up late" in winter to "going to bed late and getting up early" in spring. Don't be too eager to change, but gradually change your sleep habits according to the day and night changes in nature.
do gymnastics
Spring exercise and health care are the best time to restore physical vitality. Because the cold winter restricts people's exercise, the functions of the body's thermoregulatory center and internal organs are weakened to varying degrees.
Especially the muscles and ligaments of the whole body, need more exercise to enhance the motor function. People should take proper exercise in spring, such as walking, jogging, gymnastics, Tai Ji Chuan and so on. Maintain their vitality and enhance their immunity and disease resistance.
However, the climate in spring is characterized by large temperature difference and strong wind, so we should pay attention to wind and cold protection. Therefore, when encountering strong winds, it is necessary to appropriately reduce going out to exercise, so as to avoid the wind hurting the liver.
mood
According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the liver belongs to wood, which corresponds to spring. Its physiological characteristics are "appetite-loving and depression-loving", so anger hurts the liver. The physiological characteristics of the liver are that it likes to be relaxed and smooth, and it doesn't like to be depressed and bored.
Experts pointed out that the focus of spring health care is to maintain a good mood, and strive not to be anxious, angry or angry to ensure the comfort of the liver.
Keep healthy in spring.
