Eight main points of health preservation in winter

..... Because the natural yang drops in winter, yin is abundant, and cold air attacks people, which is very easy to damage the yang of human body. Therefore, health preservation in winter should start with gathering yin and protecting yang, and consciously achieve the "eight essentials", which can effectively prevent diseases.

Going to bed early and getting up late in winter, and keeping a long rest time can make people quiet, and the latent yang of the human body will not be disturbed, which is the first thing to pay attention to in winter health care.

Keep your back warm. The back is the yang in the yang, and pathogenic factors such as wind and cold can easily cause disease by invading your back. Old people, children and the infirm should pay attention to keeping their backs warm in winter so as not to hurt the sun.

To avoid catching a cold, keep warm. It's colder in winter. People should wear warm clothes, shoes and socks when they go out.

Take a bath carefully in winter, and beware of colds, especially for the elderly and patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Insist that washing feet is the foundation of the human body and is closely related to the head and heart. If you insist on washing your feet with hot water before going to bed in winter, it will not only promote the blood circulation of your feet, but also be of great benefit to eliminating fatigue and improving sleep.

It is necessary to prevent pathological changes. Before the winter solstice, it is the most serious stage of yin cold, and seriously ill patients often get worse. In this regard, it is necessary to take preventive measures or take some nourishing drugs appropriately to enhance the body's disease resistance.

According to the characteristics of cold weather in winter, the diet should be supplemented. You can drink milk, soybean milk, bean porridge and so on in the morning. Choose mutton, dog meat, fish, eggs and other foods with high calorie and high protein at noon and evening, and eat more foods containing vitamin B2 to prevent dry and chapped skin.

If you want to exercise, you must pay attention to mastering the "degree" in winter sports and not overdraw your body's energy. People can selectively do some jogging, walking, playing Tai Ji Chuan, practicing sword and other items suitable for winter exercise according to their physical condition, so as to achieve the health care effect of winter exercise.

There are "four taboos" for tonic in autumn and winter

Professor Sun Wei, director of the Department of Nephrology, Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, told readers that many readers have misunderstandings about tonic in autumn and winter. In particular, he pointed out that there are "four taboos" in autumn and winter tonic.

The more you avoid, the better. Eating too much tonic is harmful. It is unscientific to think that "take more tonics, treat diseases and strengthen the body without diseases". Excessive tonic will increase the burden on the spleen and stomach and liver. In summer, because people eat cold drinks and often eat frozen products, the function of spleen and stomach is weakened. If they suddenly take a lot of supplements in autumn, the burden on the spleen, stomach and liver will suddenly increase, which will make the long-term weak digestive organs unbearable and lead to digestive organ dysfunction.

It is unscientific to avoid supplementing food with medicine. Many foods are also good tonics. Eating more shepherd's purse can treat high blood pressure; Eating more radishes can strengthen the stomach and digestion, and broaden the chest; Eating more yam can replenish the spleen and stomach. Daily consumption of walnuts, sesame seeds, peanuts, red dates, lentils and so on. It is also a good tonic.

The more expensive the taboo, the better. Everyone's physical condition is different, and the corresponding supplements are also different. Expensive supplements such as bird's nest and ginseng are not suitable for everyone. Each tonic has a certain target and indications, and it should be practical and effective, and what is lacking should be supplemented.

Avoid only filling meat. From summer to autumn, because the spleen and stomach have not fully recovered their normal functions, too greasy food is not easy to digest and absorb. In addition, excessive accumulation of lipids, sugars and other substances in the body may induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. While eating beef and mutton properly in autumn and winter, don't ignore vegetables and fruits, which can provide a variety of vitamins and trace elements for the human body.

Commonly used pharmaceutical ingredients: Cordyceps sinensis (moistening lung and tonifying kidney, resolving phlegm and arresting sweating), Lycium barbarum (nourishing blood and nourishing yin, improving eyesight), American ginseng (promoting fluid production and invigorating stomach, benefiting lung and tonifying deficiency), Chinese yam (invigorating spleen and nourishing kidney, astringing sweat and reducing urine), Taxilli (nourishing blood and removing arthralgia, strengthening bones and muscles), Dendrobium nobile (nourishing lung and stomach, nourishing yin and improving eyesight) and Lily (moistening lung and relieving cough). Promote fluid production and nourish blood, enhance resistance), bird's nest (nourishing lung and yin, treating fatigue, helping digestion and treating night sweats), tremella (nourishing lung and promoting fluid production, nourishing yin and stomach, invigorating qi and strengthening heart and brain).

Commonly used fruits and vegetables: papaya (relieving depression and clearing intestines, soothing the liver and regulating qi), spinach (promoting blood circulation and moistening intestines to help digestion), fig (nourishing and moistening intestines to help digestion), Sydney (clearing heart and moistening lungs, clearing heat and resolving phlegm), apple (clearing chest and resolving phlegm, stopping diarrhea by regulating intestines), carrot (clearing intestines to help digestion and absorption) and radish.

Health: autumn and winter tonic needs to pay attention to detoxification.

As the saying goes, "autumn wind blows three snakes." After the national day, the cold is getting heavier and heavier in the morning and evening, and autumn and winter are the tonic seasons. According to the custom of China people, autumn and winter is a good time to "tonic" the body, which is also called "winter tonic". Professor Jiang Liangduo, deputy director of the National Key Discipline of Chinese Medicine in China, said: "The correct' winter tonic' can make the body strong and graceful. Because after the solar terms in autumn and winter, the metabolism in the body decreases and the physical consumption decreases, at this time, drugs are easily absorbed and stored, thus playing a greater role. However, it is necessary to make up scientifically, to make up appropriately, and not to make up blindly. " Professor Jiang believes that it will bring benefits to the body to guide winter health care by detoxifying and treating diseases.

Busy tonic in autumn and winter

When autumn comes, the temperature drops gradually, and people are used to thinking about mending their bodies. The reporter recently visited and found that tonics in large supermarkets and shopping malls in the city have become hot items. It is also reported that a large shopping mall sold nearly 654.38+million yuan of tonics during the National Day, and the sales volume doubled compared with last year. According to the "Realization Degree and Forecast of Modernization Goals in Guangzhou" issued by the General Office of Guangzhou Statistics Bureau, Guangzhou citizens have always had the habit of eating medicated diet in autumn and winter and paying attention to tonic. With the improvement of living standards, the expenditure on tonic medicine has increased year by year, with the per capita expenditure of 1995 being 33. 12 yuan and 1999 being 4 1.43 yuan, with an increase of 20%.

Why are people busy taking supplements in autumn and winter? According to reports, according to the principle of "nourishing yang in spring and summer and nourishing yin in autumn and winter", autumn and winter have entered the season of tonic. After the hot summer, the human body consumes a lot and eats less. When the weather turns cold, you should adjust your body properly. Tonifying in autumn and winter can not only strengthen the foundation and restore healthy qi, but also help to drive away diseases and evil spirits, enrich the body's yin and yang, qi and blood, and make the body enter the best state.

Traditional medicine believes that tonic in autumn and winter can balance yin and yang and reconcile qi and blood. Professor Jiang said that all kinds of people, especially children and the elderly, can choose nourishing food, but when making supplements, we should pay attention to choosing supplements and tonic methods according to different constitutions.

It's best to detoxify the tonic first.

Professor Jiang particularly emphasized that tonic should also pay attention to science, make it appropriate, and avoid blind tonic. Because the blood in the human body circulates when it is warm and stagnates when it is cold. According to reports, when cold air acts on the body in autumn and winter, it will make the blood flow in human blood vessels not smooth, and even cause congestion; In addition, people's exercise often decreases, blood viscosity increases, and blood flow slows down, which is easy to cause blood stasis or vascular infarction. Therefore, the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases is higher in winter.

In addition, the blood flow is slow, the detoxification pipeline is not smooth, and many toxins are easy to remain in the body. Coupled with the cold climate, the body's resistance will be reduced, often forming a pathological state in which poison stays in the body, qi and blood are blocked, and vital qi is insufficient.

Professor Jiang said that tonic, stagnant tonic and greasy tonic should be avoided in winter health care, and tonic should be made on the basis of detoxification, and tonic and tonic should be combined to achieve the purpose of health care. On the other hand, it is easy to cause poisons to stay in the body and cause the recurrence of various diseases or chronic diseases. Before tonic, toxins accumulated in human body must be excreted through digestive tract and urinary tract.

It is understood that all kinds of toxins and wastes left in the body will cause metabolic dysfunction, hinder the normal operation of qi and blood, and destroy the function of fu organs and the coordination between fu organs. In this case, the body can not only absorb the nutrients, but also lead to a variety of diseases, which are harmful to health. Therefore, before tonic in autumn and winter, we must detoxify, live properly and make up properly, in order to get real health.

It is more necessary to detoxify after tonic.

Relevant experts believe that if you make up too much, you will not only be unable to exercise, but also cause diseases. Because in autumn and winter, traditional food supplements mostly use pungent and hot products, warming yang and expelling cold, and tonic drugs are mainly warm drugs. People are often used to simple tonic, greasy tonic and insatiable food, so improper tonic in autumn and winter can easily lead to excessive yang in the body and accumulated heat of nutrients; It is easy to brew and produce toxins, and toxins left in the body will cause many diseases. If you eat spicy and irritating products, it can make the stool difficult to understand and cause acne (acne); Overeating fat, sweet and greasy can easily damage the spleen and stomach, which can cause constipation and abdominal distension. In addition, the amount of exercise in winter is reduced, so the resistance is reduced, and the original disease is easy to relapse or aggravate.

Experts believe that if you want to get better, you should always pay attention to the changes in your body. Only by combining tonic with detoxification will there be no worries.

◆ Experts suggest how to correctly purchase detoxification products?

Nowadays, there is a wave of drug rehabilitation in the market. Many people have an unprecedented understanding of drug rehabilitation and intend to join the ranks of drug rehabilitation. But when I ran to the drugstore, I saw that many detoxification products were filled with medicine boxes, and I didn't know which product to buy. In fact, the whole drug rehabilitation market is mixed, with many follow-up products, false propaganda or arbitrary exaggeration of efficacy. So, how to choose a good or suitable detoxification product? Relevant experts suggest that the following factors should be considered when purchasing:

First, according to the special situation of the human body;

Second, we must choose products that suit our own conditions;

Third, we should choose high-quality products produced by manufacturers widely recognized by consumers and guaranteed by reputation.

Generally speaking, products with the following conditions are trustworthy and good products: for example, products produced by well-known enterprises are produced in strict accordance with GMP standards, with definite product effect, good reputation, long product vitality, consistent advertising and product description, and perfect after-sales service.

Fifth, consumers should not believe in leaflets when buying detoxification products, and should pay attention to whether the function of advertising is the same as that marked in the product manual. The most important thing is to see if there is a detoxification function in the instructions (the instructions must be strictly examined and approved by the drug supervision department).

As long as you keep in mind the five "magic weapons" of experts, I believe you can buy good products that have both exact effects and can be taken with confidence.
