How to keep fit in spring

The plan of the year lies in spring, which is the beginning season of the year. At the beginning of the cycle of everything, spring health preservation is the best season to prolong life. What is health care? The so-called life means life, survival and growth; The so-called maintenance, that is, maintenance, nursed back to health, nourishing the meaning. Health preservation means maintaining life. We, Shengguang Health E, remind you that under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine theory, following the changing law of the collection of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, scientifically recuperating the human body, maintaining the health and vitality of life, and maintaining the body and improving health through methods such as caring for the mind, adjusting the mood and adjusting the life are the best ways to achieve longevity.

many people advocate winter tonic, and they also think that spring tonic also needs a lot of supplements. In fact, this statement is wrong. We remind you that spring tonic needs to be moderate. All the year round has the characteristics of "spring life, long summer, autumn harvest and winter storage". Life and nature should conform to the laws of nature. In winter, it is in line with the principle of keeping in good health in winter. However, during this period after beginning of spring, the amount of tonic, whether food or medicine, should be gradually reduced in order to gradually adapt to the seasonal characteristics of the coming spring, which is comfortable, rising and reaching. At the same time, it is also very important to reduce the intake of salt, because salty taste enters the kidney, and eating too much salt is easy to hurt kidney qi, which is not conducive to maintaining yang qi.

Spring sleep is also an important part of health preservation. After a day's hard work, it is time for the liver to repair itself and metabolize itself from 11: pm to 3: am. At this time, it is necessary to ensure that the human body has entered sleep, so that the liver can get full rest and repair its vitality. When sleeping, the burden on the liver is the lightest, and when the human body lies down, the liver can enjoy more blood nourishment, and the most blood flows through the liver, which is beneficial to the repair of the liver.

Spring health care is the most important health care stage at the beginning of a year. What should the elderly pay special attention to as they have entered the period of decline of human function?

We at Shengguang Health E-Family remind our elderly compatriots that in spring, what is "five less" when it comes to health care for the elderly?

less dampness: "dampness evil" is one of the "six evils" (wind, cold, summer heat, dampness, dryness and fire). When the healthy qi is insufficient and the resistance is weak, "dampness evil" will invade the human body and cause diseases. Therefore, in spring, we should pay attention to controlling indoor humidity, be diligent in bask in the quilt, and do not exercise outdoors in the morning and evening when the humidity is high. If you sweat, you should dry it in time.

less acid: according to traditional medicine, in the five elements, the liver belongs to wood, the taste is sour, the spleen belongs to soil, the taste is sweet, and the wood wins the soil. In spring, liver qi is strong, which is easy to hurt the spleen, and the spleen is closely related to the stomach, so spleen weakness is easy to hinder the digestion and absorption of food by the spleen and stomach. Therefore, you should eat less sour taste in spring to avoid excessive liver qi, and you need to increase the sweetness to nourish your temper. Wheat, coix seed, beans and bean products, fruits, seafood, eggs, pears, bananas, lotus roots, celery, spinach, duck meat, kelp, etc. can be selected for spring diet, especially for the elderly, and those foods that are sticky, cold, fatty and difficult to digest should be eaten less, so as not to affect the function of viscera.

freeze less: Sun Simiao said, "You can't wear thin clothes in spring, which makes people suffer from typhoid fever, cholera, indigestion and headache." Tell us that keeping in good health in spring should follow the principle of "spring covering". It is not advisable to suddenly reduce clothing, pay attention to cold and warmth, so as to help the human body grow yang and resist the invasion of external evils; For those elderly people with sparse hair, it is not advisable to take off their hats and scarves too early to avoid cold, headache, colds and colds. If they are neglected in early spring, cervical spondylosis and scapulohumeral periarthritis will take advantage of it, especially for the elderly who already have hyperosteogeny, and they are prone to local swelling and aggravated symptoms. In early spring, feet are easy to make people careless. Even if the weather is warm, try to wear cotton shoes or double thick insoles.

Be less lazy: Spring is the season when everything grows and brings forth the new. At this time, the elderly should avoid being lazy in activities. They should often go for an outing in the outdoor spring, fly kites, climb mountains, play Tai Ji Chuan, etc., breathe fresh air to the fullest, cleanse the foul air in the body, enhance the cardiopulmonary function, and bathe in warm sunshine to kill bacteria and viruses on the skin and enhance the immune function of the body. Old people should pay attention to the following aspects when exercising in spring: first, it is not appropriate to go out to exercise after the sun rises; second, it is not appropriate to have some hot drinks, such as milk, coffee and cereal, before morning exercise to replenish water, increase body heat and blood volume, accelerate blood circulation and prevent cerebrovascular accidents; Third, it is not appropriate to be excited. Try to choose some soothing exercise when exercising, not too intense and lasting, and do what you can to prevent accidents.

Less Anger: According to the traditional Chinese medicine theory, there is a relationship between the five zang-organs. If the physiological functions of some zang-fu organs are too much or less due to factors such as climate, emotion and diet, the dynamic balance of the body will be destroyed and diseases will occur. In spring, if the mood is too impatient or ups and downs are too large, it will easily lead to stagnation of liver qi and injury to the spleen. Therefore, in our daily life, we should be open-minded, generous, don't haggle over everything, lose our temper less, and keep our body and mind healthy.
