How to preserve health and care in beginning of winter, and what Chinese medicine to drink to tonify soup —— Listen to the old Chinese doctor.

1On October 7th, beginning of winter began to enter the solar term. Beginning of winter, how to maintain health and care, what Chinese medicine soup to drink, listen to the guidance of old Chinese medicine practitioners.

First, analyze the characteristics of beginning of winter. "People should have four seasons". We should adjust our diet and daily life accurately according to the weather characteristics to better maintain our health.

In beginning of winter, ancient people gave special names to 24 solar terms. Let's start with beginning of winter.

Li means to establish and start. Among the 24 solar terms, the beginning of four seasons is called "calendar". When it reaches the peak, it is called "to".

"Reason" and "ambition" are eight knots, and these knots are not easy to pass, and the qi changes obviously, so many people are prone to illness or aggravation on this knot.

Look at the word winter again. It says in Shuo Wen Jie Zi: "Winter will come eventually." Means the end. "The endless grass on the plain comes and goes with the seasons." panicum miliaceum, after growing in spring, growing in summer and bearing fruit in autumn, completed his mission and died in winter. It is its offspring, not itself, that will blossom next year. On the other hand, perennial herbs have evolved a step. By defoliation, convergence and hiding, they can resist the cold and frost, and they will be able to bring forth the new and continue to flourish in the coming year. Some animals, such as insects, snakes, bears and bears, conserve energy by hibernating, while birds fly every day to avoid the cold.

Anyone here? Man is the spirit of all things, and will not migrate or hibernate like animals. But will artificially improve their living environment, in order to achieve the purpose of keeping out the cold, keeping warm and living healthily. Wear cotton-padded clothes, burn kang and keep warm in winter. At the same time, rest in winter, cats in winter, and consciously reduce going out and activities.

Therefore, Chinese medicine conforms to the principle of natural health preservation, and it is to raise Tibet in winter.

Huangdi Neijing emphasizes: "In winter and March, this is called closed storage, water and ice are frozen, and the sun is not disturbed." It should be "when the cold goes, it will be warm, and the skin will not leak, so that the gas will be taken away." In other words, it is cold in winter, and everything is in a state of convergence and seclusion. Therefore, the arrangement of work and rest in winter should be to go to bed early and get up late, avoid the cold and wait until the sun rises and comes out with sunshine.

A simple but crucial reminder, we should consciously reduce going out in winter, don't go out for morning exercise before dawn, or wait until the sunshine is sufficient to exercise, so as to achieve the purpose of driving out the cold and keeping warm.

Chinese medicine believes that the most important thing to pay attention to in winter is "cold in winter".

Winter is the most suitable season for tonic in a year, and it is also the season when cold and evil are rampant. It is important to warm and tonify the spleen and kidney in winter, which helps to enhance the body's immunity and prevent the invasion of cold pathogens.
