This human temperament, viruses and bacteria and other pathogens, will also be rejuvenated, our human immunity, will begin to face new challenges. As the saying goes, spring covers autumn frost, so as the temperature rises, how to implement the measures of spring cover? Spring health, what points should be paid attention to? Let's solve your doubts now.
According to traditional culture, spring can be divided into 3 stages, Mengchun, which corresponds to the spring and rain in the 24 solar terms; mid-spring, which corresponds to the sting and spring equinox; and the seasonal spring, which corresponds to Qingming and guyu. Meng Chun, the yang qi is rising, the first warm is still cold, it is necessary to prevent the spring cold, the focus of health care is to keep warm, and the spring cover measures are very important. In mid-spring, the spring breeze is everywhere, the climate is dry, and the focus of health care is to avoid dry gas attacks. In the spring, the rain is long, the climate is humid, and the focus of health care is to pay attention to getting rid of dampness.
After the arrival of the sting, the warmth measures still need to be maintained, and at the same time, anti-drying measures are begun to be added. Spring dryness is divided into cool and dry, and dry fire can be subdivided into liver fire, heart fire, lung fire, and stomach fire. Diet adjustment, there is a traditional experience, eat more pears. Because, the climate is dry, it is easy to lead to dry mouth, dry tongue, itchy throat cough, raw pear cold taste sweet, moisturizing lungs and cough, nourishing yin and clear heat, folk stinging to eat pear tradition, born from this. Pears, can be eaten raw, or stewed water to drink, some places also have steamed pears or roasted pears to eat, remind you, juicing is not a good way, because, will cause the loss of dietary fiber and nutrients.
Sting and anti-dry, but also need to pay attention to a light diet, flat liver and spleen, can increase the intake of plant protein, vitamin supplements, help improve immunity, for example, eat more lean meat, eggs, milk, spring shoots, spinach, yam, lotus seeds, white fungus. Increasing dietary fiber can help gastrointestinal peristalsis and play a role in assisting dryness. In addition, you should reduce the consumption of greasy and irritating foods. After the sting, there are more wild vegetables, such as cabbage or horsehead, which are rich in nutrients and are conducive to enhancing immunity, and can be eaten more. In addition, you can also eat jujube porridge or yam porridge to prevent excessive liver qi and spleen injury.
After the sting, due to the large change in temperature, there will often be a strong wind or cooling situation, and the temperature in the morning and evening is larger, so when exercising outdoors, you need to pay attention to keeping warm, especially to prevent the joints from being cold. Spring exercise, the amount of exercise should be gradually increased, so that the body can adapt. In addition, it should also be noted that if the morning fog does not dissipate, it is not advisable to exercise, otherwise, it may cause respiratory diseases.
After the sting, health care should pay attention to the prevention of diseases. The first is to avoid the invasion of wind and humidity, to prevent colds, especially patients with chronic diseases, should always increase or decrease clothes according to temperature changes, so as not to aggravate the condition after a cold. Spring Festival health, there is also a key point, is to prevent allergies, especially people who are allergic to pollen, when going on a wild outing, you should pay attention to personal protection, at the same time, you need to carry first aid drugs with you, in case of emergency.
Spring health, but also pay attention to the prevention of 3 diseases. The first is epidemics, such as influenza and respiratory and digestive tract infections such as hepatitis A. Indoor ventilation is frequent, internal cleaning and hygiene, prevention of cross-infection between family members, hand washing with running water and soap, and disinfection of shared spaces and facilities such as door handles, switches, and toilets. The second is gastrointestinal diseases, because, as the temperature rises, pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and fungi also begin to be active, and attention to dietary hygiene can avoid the occurrence of gastrointestinal diseases. The third is joint disease, the cold in the spring will cause wind chill and moisture invasion, resulting in poor operation of qi and blood, making joint disease recurrent meridians, bringing joint soreness and other symptoms, you can try to wear knee pads, as well as moxa and other methods to reduce the discomfort caused by joint involvement. Finally, I would like to remind you that spring health should pay attention to liver nourishment, so as to avoid liver qi depression, maintain a pleasant mood, and calm the liver fire, which is a necessary measure to maintain health.
Whoever loves, pass on health to whom.
