Cold hands and feet seem to be a minor problem, but they are actually very tired. I feel that the whole person has no heat, and the risk of catching a cold has soared, which may even affect the quality of sleep at night. Today, I will share a few tips to help you improve your cold hands and feet and let you spend this winter warmly!

? First, soak your feet

? Soaking feet with hot water is a very effective way to deal with cold hands and feet, which can not only speed up blood circulation in the body, but also help improve sleep quality. The foot soaking time is generally controlled at 15~20 minutes. When soaking feet, you can add some wormwood, ginger and angelica to help warm yang and nourish blood, promote blood circulation and dredge collaterals, and massage Yongquan point with your hands at the same time, which will get twice the result with half the effort.

? Second, eat high-fat food properly.

? Because the energy of human body comes from food, carbohydrates, fats and protein will release a lot of energy after oxidation, which will produce nutrients and heat sources for the body. Therefore, women should not over-diet in order to lose weight. Proper intake of high-fat food is also a measure to keep warm in winter. The body is full of energy, and the energy given to the hands and feet will not be insufficient because of dissipation.

? Third, bask in the sun.

? Nowadays, people pay attention to sun protection all the year round and lose many opportunities to get in close contact with the sun. Sunlight can make you feel warm quickly, but from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the front of the human body is yin and the back is yang. If you consciously sunbathe your back, it will have the effect of tonifying yang and keeping out the cold.

? Fourth, don't stay up late and don't make yourself too tired.

? Long-term fatigue, anxiety or irregular working hours can also lead to endocrine and metabolic disorders, making it difficult to generate enough calories. People who stay up late will have cold hands and feet, chills all over, and their brains will not listen to them in the early morning. This is actually a manifestation that staying up late consumes qi and blood, and cold evil enters the human body, leading to the obstruction of meridians.
