Why is winter suitable for health preservation?
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that human beings are related to heaven and earth, and climate change affects human physiological activities. Spring and summer are sunny and the climate is hot. It is cloudy in autumn and winter, and the climate is cold. People also undergo physiological changes with the changes of the four seasons.

The three months in winter are the time to collect the spirit of the sun. The weather is very cold, so be sure to protect your body's sun spirit and wait until the sun appears before going out for activities. Therefore, some animals hibernate, so people should wear more clothes to avoid unnecessary outdoor activities and prevent the excessive dissipation of the sun's spirit.

In turn, it hurts the kidney, and it is flaccid and soft in spring, and there are fewer people born. If the consumption of yang in winter is excessive and the storage is insufficient, it will be prone to problems such as weakness and dizziness in the next spring, which is not in line with the way of health preservation.

Tips on winter diet

1, don't eat cold things in winter: in March, plants wither and insects freeze, which is the season when everything in nature is closed, and people's yang should also be hidden in it. At this time, the function of the spleen and stomach is relatively weak. If you eat cold food again, it will damage the yang of the spleen and stomach. Therefore, we should eat less cold foods such as water chestnut and persimmon in winter, especially women. It is easiest to get cold hands and feet after winter. Be sure to avoid cold food and keep warm.

2, avoid overeating in winter: the food intake in winter is relatively increased, but the activity is relatively small. Eating too much can easily lead to poor blood circulation. Therefore, dinner should be properly controlled and exercise should be done after dinner. If you have abdominal distension, you can massage your abdomen to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and accelerate the absorption and digestion of food.

3, avoid drinking in winter to keep out the cold: Some people like to drink in winter, because after drinking, they will feel whole body fever, which is the result of alcohol promoting human blood circulation. However, due to the release of a lot of heat energy in the body after drinking, people will feel cold and lack of yang, which will lead to even colder after drinking.

4. Don't make up if you are weak: It is said that winter is the best time to make up your body, but remember to make up. Some people are weak and start taking tonic after entering winter, but they have adverse reactions, such as sores on the lips, insomnia and stomachache. This is a kind of "deficiency without tonic" performance, because the spleen and stomach function is relatively weak, it is difficult to bear tonic, and after tonic, it has indigestion, which further affects the digestion and absorption function, resulting in malnutrition, qi deficiency and blood weakness.
