In autumn, the weather is crisp and the climate is getting cooler. There is a folk saying that "one autumn rain is cold, and ten autumn rains need to wear cotton." The temperature difference between day and night is large in autumn, and the temperature is relatively low in the second half of the night. If you are not prepared, you will easily catch a cold or cause diarrhea. So sleep at night to cover the quilt, especially to protect the abdomen. There is also a folk saying that "autumn is not busy to increase the crown, and spring is not busy to reduce clothes", that is, "spring covers autumn and freezes." This means not to wear too many clothes in autumn. When the weather is not too cold, it is beneficial to improve the body's cold resistance and cold resistance to adapt to the harsh weather conditions in winter. But it doesn't mean that it is necessary to wear light clothes when the weather is very cold. Exceeding the cold resistance limit of the body will lead to diseases.

For autumn health care, the earliest existing medical classic in China, Huangdi Neijing, has been specially recorded. It advocates people: "Autumn is March, which is a friendly time, the weather is urgent, the atmosphere is bright, people lie down early and get up early, and have fun with chickens, so as to make them calm, relieve their autumn punishment and clear their lungs." This autumn breath is a kind of coping and a way of keeping in good health. " This paper discusses in detail that the human body must change clothes properly with the change of seasonal climate, maintain a happy spirit and emotional stability, and adapt to the four seasons for health preservation. Exercise in autumn is very important. Wash your hands, face and feet with cold water, or take a cold bath if possible. These should be gradual and persistent. At the same time, we should cultivate the habit of going to bed early and getting up early, and insist on outdoor activities in the morning, which can improve the cold resistance and disease resistance of the human body.

Autumn is also the order of dryness, which hurts body fluids. People will feel dry throat and nose, dry skin and thirst. Therefore, the autumn diet should be light and moist. Soymilk, gruel and milk are necessary drinks, so drink plenty of boiled water. Vegetables should be radish, wax gourd, tomato, etc., and fruits should be eaten with products that nourish yin and promote fluid production, such as grapes and bananas. Pear is known as the "Sect of Hundred Fruits". Chinese medicine says: "The living can clear the heat of the five internal organs, and the cooked can nourish the yin of the five internal organs." Pear is a good health care product in autumn. Euryale ferox, which can be used as medicine and food, has the effects of appetizing, nourishing yin and quenching thirst. Soak the hair with tremella, boil it, and take it with sugar. It is also a tonic in autumn. Lily is not only a good dish, but also a good medicine, which can clear away heat and promote fluid production, moisten the lungs and relieve cough. Take a proper amount of lily and rice, cook with slow fire until cooked, and add a proper amount of sugar, which is "lily porridge", which is quite effective for people with dry cough in autumn.

Autumn diet should always be moistened, avoid salty and spicy fried things, eat less melon seeds, and don't drink too much to prevent dryness.
