What issues should we pay attention to when maintaining health now?

Health preservation in spring should follow the principle of nourishing the sun and preventing wind. In spring, the human body's yang energy follows nature and spreads upward and outward. Therefore, we must pay attention to protecting the yang energy in the body. Any situation that damages the yang energy should avoid dietary adjustments [nourishing the liver first] The liver is an important organ of the human body. It has the function of regulating qi and blood, helping the spleen and stomach to digest food and absorb nutrients, as well as regulate emotions and regulate qi. Therefore, nourishing the liver in spring will bring health and longevity throughout the year. So, how should you nourish your liver in spring? In terms of diet, you should eat more foods that warm and nourish yang energy, such as onions, ginger, garlic, leeks, mustard, etc. Studies have shown that garlic not only has a strong bactericidal effect, but also promotes metabolism, increases appetite, prevents arteriosclerosis and high blood pressure, and even has the effect of nourishing the brain. Green onions have high nutritional value and can also prevent respiratory and intestinal infectious diseases. In addition, you should eat less cold-natured foods in your diet, such as cucumber, wild rice, lotus root, etc., so as not to prevent the growth of Yang Qi. [Increased sweetness and less acidity] In spring, the function of the liver is strong. If you eat more sour foods, the liver qi will be more strong, which will lead to a decrease in the digestion and absorption functions of the spleen and stomach, affecting human health. Therefore, you should eat less sour food to prevent excessive liver qi. It is advisable to eat desserts in spring to strengthen the spleen and stomach, such as jujubes, which are mild in nature and flavor, can nourish the blood and strengthen the spleen and stomach. They can be eaten raw, or made into jujube porridge, jujube cakes, and jujube rice. Yam is also a good food in spring. It has the functions of strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi, nourishing the lungs and nourishing yin, and tonifying the kidneys and strengthening essence. Yams can be made into sugar beets such as shredded yam, grilled yam, first-grade yam, crystal yam balls, etc., as well as flavored snacks such as yam cake, yam bean paste buns, yam candied haws, yam sesame crispy cake, etc. It can also be made into yam porridge, yam and red date porridge. . [Eat more vegetables] After winter, it is common for people to have insufficient intake of multivitamins, inorganic salts and trace elements. For example, in spring people often suffer from stomatitis, angular stomatitis, glossitis and certain skin diseases. These are all It is a nutritional disorder caused by not eating enough fresh vegetables. Therefore, when spring comes, people must eat more vegetables. In early spring, there are fewer fresh vegetables. At this time, vegetables that have been refrigerated, dried, pickled, and pickled in winter can come in handy. Such as pickled radish, ginger, onions, cabbage, mustard greens, peppers, mustard, etc. You can eat more wild vegetables in spring. Wild vegetables grow in the suburbs, have low pollution, and are easy to eat. They can be eaten cold, stir-fried, cooked in soups, and stuffed. They are rich in nutrients and have significant health care functions, such as shepherd's purse, purslane, dandelion, plantain, elm money, bamboo shoots, etc. Nowadays, growing vegetables in greenhouses has gradually changed the situation of low supply of fresh vegetables in spring. Wherever life is convenient, fresh vegetables can be eaten at any time. Such as spinach, celery, rape, wild rice, lettuce, Chinese toon, green beans, etc. Spring soup should be based on red carrots, white radish, kelp, winter melon, tomatoes, and spring bamboo shoots, with chicken liver, pork liver, lean pork shreds, etc. The soup should be light and fresh. [Drink more porridge] At breakfast or dinner, eat some health porridge that warms the kidneys and strengthens yang, strengthens the spleen and stomach, and nourishes qi and blood, such as chicken liver japonica rice porridge, leek japonica rice porridge, and pork liver japonica rice porridge. [Supplementing protein] In spring, you should also add more high-quality protein to your diet to enhance your resistance, such as eggs, fish, beef, chicken, and soy products. [Edit this paragraph] Health Preservation Features ◆ Spring is windy, and wind evil is the main factor of exogenous diseases in spring. It may cause various infectious and epidemic diseases, such as colds, diphtheria, scarlet fever, measles, meningococcal meningitis, chickenpox, Tonsillitis, pneumonia, etc., so beware of epidemics in spring. ◆Spring is the season when winter and summer alternate. Cold and warm air currents compete with each other. It is cold and warm at times, cloudy and clear at times, and the weather is unpredictable. The instability of the climate has caused many discomforts to people who are sensitive to the climate. In this regard, sensitive people should pay attention to their daily living arrangements. ◆Spring Qi responds to the liver, and Yang Qi rises. Liver Qi and Liver Fire tend to rise with Spring Qi, and strong Liver Yang can easily lead to high blood pressure, dizziness, hepatitis and other diseases. Strong liver qi also makes people's mental emotions become high and high, making people with original schizophrenia, mania and other diseases prone to anger, commotion, rage, noise and other states due to changes in the weather. ◆External climate changes have a significant impact on the human body's Qi and blood: for example, when the weather is cold, the Qi and blood are stagnant and astringent, but when the weather is hot, the Qi and blood flow smoothly and easily. In spring, when the climate warms, the activity of qi and blood also strengthens, and the body's metabolism becomes active. Healthy people can adapt to this change quickly, but the frail and sick, the elderly and children are prone to develop incompatible diseases, which may cause old diseases to relapse or worsen. Therefore, early preparations should be made for disease prevention and treatment in spring.

[Edit this paragraph] Daily life adjustments In spring, people should not only pay attention to health from the perspective of diet, but also pay enough attention to daily life. [Go to bed early and get up early] In spring, don’t go to bed too late at night, get up early in the morning, and develop the habit of going to bed early and getting up early to adapt to the natural growth and development. After getting up, you should spread your hair, loosen your clothes, stretch your body, and take a stroll in the courtyard, so that your mind can become active quickly. The quality of sleep for the elderly at night is generally not high, so they should arrange a nap for a certain period of time. [Spring Clothing] The climate changes greatly in spring, and the human skin has begun to become loose. Therefore, the clothing requirements are: on the one hand, it must be loose and stretchable, on the other hand, it must be soft and warm, and the clothes must not be shortened. ◆Add or remove clothing Although the weather gets warmer in spring, the temperature changes greatly, especially the temperature difference between morning and evening and noon is still quite large. Therefore, it is advisable to wear two shirts that are easy to add or remove. In order to complement the natural beauty of the rejuvenated earth, the color of clothing should be light and bright. ◆Don’t forget the “spring cover”. In the severe cold winter, various insulation measures are in place, which reduces people’s ability to withstand cold. Spring is warm and flowers are blooming. If you cut off your clothes too early, once the cold hits, it will cause blood vessels to spasm, increase blood flow resistance, affect body functions, and cause various diseases. Therefore, the habit of "spring covering" should be maintained, and clothes should be gradually reduced. Clothing should be "thick at the bottom and thin at the top". People with weak constitutions should pay special attention to keeping their backs warm. ◆Clothing should be loose. In addition, spring clothing should not be too tight. Nowadays, some young girls take off their heavy winter clothes prematurely and wear tights in pursuit of curvaceous figures. In fact, this is very harmful to health. The reason is that women’s vagina often secretes an acidic liquid to keep the vulva moist and prevent Bacteria invade and kill bacteria. If the pants are worn too tight, it will not be conducive to the evaporation of moisture in the vagina. An environment that is overheated and humid for a long time creates favorable conditions for bacterial reproduction and can easily cause inflammation. Loose and stretched clothing mainly includes: "V" shaped clothing, jackets, sportswear and hunting clothing. We should strive to wear them easily and freely. [Beware of spring sleepiness] Spring sleepiness is not a disease, but a physiological phenomenon that occurs during normal seasonal changes. The reason is that the blood vessels of the skin shrink in winter and the weather gets warmer in spring. The blood vessels and pores expand. The relatively stable blood flow supply to the skin increases and the blood supply to the brain decreases relatively, thus causing spring sleepiness. Although spring sleepiness is not a disease, it affects study and work, so it must be adjusted. To prevent spring sleepiness, you can try the following methods: 1. Pay attention to sleep. As the saying goes: Go to bed early and get up early to be energetic. This helps improve the quality of your sleep at night. Sleep time should not be too long, generally 8 hours a day for adults, 8 to 9 hours for middle school students, and 9 to 10 hours for primary school students. Of course, the time will vary from person to person. 2. It is best to wash your face with cold water in the morning to stimulate the skin and brain so that they can adapt to the changes in blood circulation in spring as soon as possible. 3. Strengthen physical exercise. Exercise can improve the body's metabolic process, enhance blood circulation and respiratory function, and have a certain stimulating effect on the central nervous system and other systems. Therefore, you should do more exercise in spring, such as mountain climbing, outings, walking, etc. 4. Regular massage of the temples and exposure to the sun are also helpful in relieving spring sleepiness. When drowsiness occurs, you can use sound, touch, etc. to give yourself a certain amount of stimulation. This can change the internal rhythm of the human body and make the central nervous system of the brain quickly enter a awake state, thereby eliminating drowsiness. [Edit this paragraph] Environmental adjustment and photography In spring health care, home greening is an important aspect. Modern scientific research believes that green is beneficial to people's health and longevity. There is also a folk saying in our country that "trees and flowers are planted in the courtyard, and the air is fresh and people can relax." Green plants can absorb large amounts of dust trapped in the air, filter and absorb radioactive substances, eliminate noise in the living environment, and improve and regulate human physiological functions. Green can also absorb ultraviolet rays in the sun that are harmful to the eyes, which is beneficial to brightening the eyes and eliminating fatigue, and improves the sensitivity of smell, hearing and thinking activities. The focus of home greening is the balcony. Planting some flowers and placing bonsai on the balcony can beautify the environment and is good for human health. If the balcony area is large, you can use flower pots to plant climbing plants, such as morning glories, parsley, etc. Indoors, you can plant flowers that can purify the air, such as spider plants, Milanese roses, asparagus, etc. In addition, the windows in the room should be opened frequently to keep the air fresh and circulated. [Edit this paragraph] Exercise: Spring is warm, the flowers are blooming, and the climate is pleasant, so spring is still a good season for physical exercise. [Get up early and stretch] After a night of sleep, the human body is soft and sluggish, and the circulation of Qi and blood is slow. When you wake up, you always feel lazy and weak.

If the limbs are stretched, the waist and abdomen are stretched, the muscles of the whole body are exerted, and combined with deep inhalation and exhalation, it will have the effect of expelling the old and absorbing the new, promoting qi and blood circulation, unblocking the meridians and joints, and invigorating the spirit. It can relieve fatigue, refresh the mind, increase energy and activate the limbs. Therefore, it is recommended to get up early and stretch more in spring. [Take more walks on weekdays] When spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, walking is a health care method worth promoting. After a stressful and busy day at work, walking around the streets can quickly relieve fatigue. One of the secrets of longevity for many longevity stars is to take a certain amount of time for a walk every day, especially spring walks, because the climate in spring is pleasant, everything grows hair, and it is more conducive to health. Walking should be informal and varies from person to person. At the same time, you should also pay attention to: find a place with fresh air and a quiet environment; choose a suitable time for walking, and it is not suitable to go out immediately after a meal; the elderly should not walk on an empty stomach; insist on walking 3 times a week , 45 to 60 minutes each time; wear loose clothes when walking; decide the walking speed according to your own situation. [Outing] In the cold winter, the functions of the temperature regulation center and internal organs decline to varying degrees. After a season of rest, the muscles and ligaments have been inactive for a long time, and have shrunk and contracted weakly. At this time, going out for an outing to enjoy the scenery not only exercises the body, but also cultivates the spirit. Especially in the spring countryside, the air is fresh, the flowers are red and the leaves are green, and the birds are chirping. Being in the embrace of such beautiful nature makes you feel naturally relaxed. Moreover, since ancient times, people have had the custom of going on youth outings, so outings are a good way to maintain health in spring. [Kite Flying] Kite flying in spring is a way of health that integrates leisure, entertainment and exercise. It is really a pleasure to go on an outing with a thread in hand and watch the kite soar and fly with the wind. When the kite is flying, people keep running, pulling and controlling the kite. Through the cooperation of hands and eyes and the activities of the limbs, the purpose of dredging the meridians, harmonizing qi and blood, and strengthening the body can be achieved. Watching the kite fly high and keeping your eyes on the kite, your eye muscles can be adjusted and fatigue can be eliminated. This activity is especially suitable for teenagers. Middle-aged and elderly people should pay attention to protecting their necks when flying kites, and do not lean back for too long. They can alternately look up and down. It is best to fly a kite with 2 to 3 people. Choose a flat and open site instead of lakes, rivers or places with high-voltage power lines to avoid accidents. [Do more outdoor activities] The so-called outdoor activities refer to some sports outdoors, in courtyards, parks, and nature, such as fishing, flower viewing, jogging, Qigong practice, Tai Chi, etc. There are abundant negative oxygen ions in the outdoor air, which are good nutrients for promoting the growth of biological bones. Although they are intangible, they are "floating" all the time. They are very beneficial to preventing rickets in children and osteoporosis in middle-aged and elderly people. [Exercise taboos] There is a lot of fog and wind and sand in spring, so the exposed parts of the limbs should not be too large when exercising to prevent joint pain caused by cold dampness; do not exercise in places with dust flying in the wind, and learn to breathe in through the nose and exhale through the mouth, and do not choke on the wind ; Before exercise, you should do some preparatory activities. First, stretch your arms, kick your legs, and turn your waist. After the muscles and joints of the body are fully mobilized, you can do strenuous exercise. Don’t do morning exercises too early in early spring. In early spring and February, the temperature is low in the early morning and the air-conditioning is overwhelming. If you go out to exercise too early, you are susceptible to "wind-cold". In mild cases, you may catch a cold, or in severe cases, it may cause joint pain, stomach pain, and even make people freeze their mouth. Take off your clothes after exercise to prevent colds. If you are sweating, wipe it dry at any time. Do not wear wet clothes and let the cold wind blow to avoid catching cold and causing diseases. The physical exercise should be comprehensive. You should choose movements that extend the limbs and hips, as well as flexion and extension movements of the back, abdomen, thoracolumbar, and waist. Do not lie down on the grass during or after exercise, otherwise it may easily cause rheumatic low back pain or arthritis. [Pay attention to knee protection when exercising] 1. Pay attention to knee pads when exercising in the morning. Morning exercise for the elderly is very beneficial to health, but spring mornings are relatively cold. Before exercising, you should move your knee joints for 1-2 minutes to relax the joints and prevent accidental knee joint injuries during exercise. If you choose to run, be careful not to run too fast and not to press your feet too hard. This can cushion the vibration of your legs and prevent knee joint injuries. 2. Pay attention to knee pads for evening entertainment. The temperature is also lower in spring nights. When the elderly play cards, mahjong or watch TV for a long time in a relatively low temperature environment, they should pay attention not to play for too long. They should stand up and walk for a while, move their knee joints, or use Self-massage the knee joint with your hands to promote blood circulation in the knee joint and thereby reduce adhesion of tissues inside and outside the joint. 3． Pay attention to knee pads when the weather changes. When spring changes from sunny to cloudy and rainy, the temperature drops and the humidity increases, often accompanied by strong winds.

The elderly should avoid going out as much as possible, not only to avoid the invasion of dampness and cold, but also to reduce the amount of exercise and reduce the exercise load, so that their joints can recuperate. At the same time, pay attention to keeping warm, especially the knees, such as adding knee pads and other supplies. When the weather turns sunny and hot, you must follow the "Spring Covering" health regimen. Don't rush to reduce your clothes. Even after sweating, don't rinse your knee joints with cold water immediately to prevent local vasoconstriction and affect the knee joints. blood circulation. 4. "Knee support exercises" can be performed appropriately. In principle, non-weight-bearing active activities are the main focus. For example, "lying on your back and raising your legs": Take a lying position, straighten your legs, place your hands naturally on your sides, lift your straight legs upward, and the angle can gradually increase. Another example is "lying on your side and swinging out": Lie on your side, straighten and abduct your lower limbs, lift them up as much as possible, and then slowly return them. For the elderly who are in good physical condition, they can also perform "pedaling exercise", which simulates the action of riding a bicycle. These functional exercises can make the knee joint flex and extend freely, prevent muscle atrophy, enhance muscle strength and increase the range of joint activities. [Edit this paragraph] Medicinal health care Medicinal health regimen is an important part of spring health care. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that taking some Chinese medicines at the right time in spring can regulate the body and prevent diseases. The ancients also had the custom of taking "manqing juice" at the beginning of spring, so medicinal health care cannot be ignored. [Medicated diet comes first] As the saying goes: "Medicinal supplements are not as good as food supplements." Therefore, you might as well make your own health-preserving medicated meals in spring. Medicinal diet should generally use medicines that replenish qi and increase hair, nourish yin and soften the liver, and relieve diarrhea, and be prepared with corresponding foods. When choosing medicines, avoid being too high or too cold, and avoid being too cold.

In spring, when the yang energy rises, it is the time to weed out the old and bring forth the new; when it is warm and windy, it is the time when bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms survive and spread, so there are more exogenous fevers. In this case, it is necessary to take some medicine that can replenish the body's righteousness, that is, resistance, also known as immunity. Specific medicines include: ◆Yupingfeng Powder is composed of astragalus, Atractylodes, and Fangfeng. It is suitable for those with weak Wei Qi, weak body surface, and those prone to colds. Wind is the dominant Qi in spring and is most likely to invade the human body. Taking this medicine at ordinary times can effectively resist the invasion of wind evil. People with weak constitutions should especially take this medicine in spring. Dosage: 2 times a day, 15 grams each time with warm water. In addition, you can also take Huangjingdan and Bujianzhizi pills. [Edit this paragraph] Disease prevention In spring, when the climate becomes warmer, dampness, heat and poisonous evils begin to act, and many pathogenic factors become rampant, so special attention should be paid to disease prevention in spring. [Preventing Relapse of Old Diseases] Seasonal changes and climate changes can easily cause the relapse of some old diseases in frail elderly people, such as frailty, dizziness in spring, brain swelling, dizziness, tinnitus, mental fatigue, etc. People with internal heat constitution are prone to eye problems in spring. Redness and sore throat; people with strong liver fire are prone to high blood pressure, irritability, and lack of sleep in spring.

Pay attention to nourishing the liver: "Nourish Yang in spring and summer, nourish Yin in autumn and winter." In the theory of five elements, the liver belongs to wood, which corresponds to spring. It governs the promotion of hair, expresses joy and relieves depression, and avoids depression. Therefore, the first step in nourishing the liver is to regulate emotions.
