Cold comes from the feet! How to drive away the cold? 3 small ways, feet are not cold in winter.

There is an old saying among the people that "cold starts from the feet and disease enters from the mouth". The foot is located at the end of the body, which is the farthest place from the heart. Blood flows through the foot, the course of disease is the longest, and the fat layer of the foot is very thin, so the foot has poor heat preservation ability and low temperature. In addition, the cold from top to bottom, after entering the human body, will eventually stop at the feet. Therefore, the cold starts from the feet and the disease enters from the feet.

From the point of view of traditional Chinese medicine, there are many acupoints on the feet in all internal organs of the body. When your feet are cold, your body is prone to the following problems:

1, gynecological problems

Once women's feet are attacked by cold air, it is easy to cause stagnation of qi and blood, which in turn affects menstruation and causes gynecological problems such as dysmenorrhea, menstrual disorders and even pelvic cavity.

2. Cardiovascular problems

Cold invasion of legs and feet will easily affect the normal contraction of calf muscles and hinder venous blood return. If blood returns to the heart abnormally, it will easily affect cardiovascular health.

3, premature aging

There are four human bodies, namely, the root of nose, the root of milk, the root of ear and the root of foot, among which ear, nose and milk are the three convergence points of human essence, and foot is the total convergence point of all human essence.

Unhealthy feet can easily lead to the loss of human essence and accelerate the aging of the body, especially the long-term cold of legs and feet, which will affect the normal operation of qi and blood, health and life expectancy.

4. High humidity

Almost half of the nerves, blood vessels and blood in the body are concentrated in the legs. When the legs are cold and wet, they will form cold and wet, so that too much moisture will gather in the lower part of the body, and the lower limbs are prone to eczema, edema and other discomfort.

In autumn and winter, many women want grace rather than temperature. When wearing shorts and skirts, it is easy to make the soles of your feet cold and affect your health.

Therefore, autumn and winter are coming and the weather is cold. In order to prevent cold air from entering the body and affecting health, we must do these three things well in autumn and winter:

1 Wear cotton slippers indoors in winter

In winter, many places in the north will provide heating. Although it's cold outside, it's warm as spring indoors. When the heating is turned on, many people like to walk around the room barefoot. In fact, this practice is very harmful to the body. Although the indoor temperature is higher than the outdoor temperature, the ground is still cold. Walking barefoot is easy to make the cold enter the body, so even if the heating is turned on, try to wear cotton slippers at home.

2. Insist on soaking feet with hot water every day.

In the cold winter, soaking feet with hot water before going to bed every night will help the body accelerate blood circulation, make the whole body warm up quickly and provide heat for the body. It also helps to relax the body, reduce fatigue, maintain liver and kidney, and improve sleep quality.

In addition, when soaking feet, I suggest you choose a constant temperature foot bath. On the one hand, the heat preservation effect is good, and the foot soaking time can be guaranteed. On the other hand, you can also do foot massage when soaking your feet, which is very beneficial to your health.

3. Shake your feet before going to bed.

It is very cold in winter, and cold feet always make people feel difficult to fall asleep, so shaking your feet before going to bed can easily make your body feel warm.

We can do this: first lie flat on the bed, then let our legs shake in the air, and keep riding a bike and spinning for about 5 minutes, which will help our health.
