💧 When maintaining health in autumn, moisturizing the lungs is the first step. Preventing dryness and protecting yin is the foundation.
In autumn, the climate becomes dry. The most direct thing that the human body can feel is that the mouth, nose and throat are prone to dryness and discomfort, and may even cause dry cough. This situation is called "autumn dryness" in traditional Chinese medicine.
At the same time, the lungs and the large intestine have an external and internal relationship. Dryness evil will not only cause damage to the lungs, but also easily consume and damage body fluids, causing the intestines to lose moisture, resulting in dry stools.
Therefore, the core principle of autumn health care is to nourish yin and moisturize the lungs, prevent dryness and protect yin .
Pay attention to replenishing water in daily conditioning, and make sure to drink an appropriate amount of warm water every day. In terms of diet, you can choose more foods such as pears, apples, grapes, radishes, and green leafy vegetables that can help the body fluids to grow and prevent dryness. This will build an internal defense line for the body against autumn dryness.
🌿 Pay attention to your diet: reduce pungent and increase acidity to strengthen the spleen and stomach
As autumn enters, dietary adjustments need to comply with changes in natural gas.
According to traditional Chinese medicine, lung function is relatively strong in autumn. If you eat too many spicy foods such as onions, ginger, garlic, leeks, peppers, etc., it will cause lung qi to become more exuberant, further causing damage to liver qi.
Therefore, in terms of diet, it is necessary to follow the principle of "less pungent and more acidic" and moderately reduce those spicy things, so as to achieve the purpose of calming lung qi and nourishing liver yin.
In addition, in early autumn, the weather is still a little hot and humid. In addition, a large number of fruits are sold in the market. If you eat too much raw and cold things, it will easily cause damage to the spleen and stomach.
At this time, drink a warm porridge for breakfast, such as porridge made from millet or porridge made from yam, which can not only strengthen the spleen and nourish the stomach, but also bring a refreshing and comfortable start to the day.
🍵 Scientifically selected fish supplements, mildly nourishing and not fattening
The traditional tonic season is autumn, but modern people are often worried that blind nourishment will cause a weight burden.
In fact, choosing low-fat and high-protein fish is an excellent solution.
Not only is fish meat low in fat, it is also rich in substances called unsaturated fatty acids, which play a positive role in maintaining cardiovascular health and assisting in stabilizing blood sugar.
Different types of fish have their own unique nutritional value. For example, hairtail is suitable for people with weak spleen and stomach and dry skin. Black carp can help replenish qi and nourish the stomach. Grass carp, also known as grass carp, has a certain dietary auxiliary effect on fatigue and headaches due to wind deficiency. Loach has the effect of warming and replenishing qi.
The vitamin D, calcium, phosphorus and other nutrients contained in these fish can also help prevent osteoporosis, making it a safe choice for mild tonic in autumn.
🍂 Moderate "autumn freeze" can strengthen the body, the three types of people need to be cautious
There has always been a folk saying called "autumn freeze". The core of it is not suffering from coldness, but that when the weather gradually turns cooler, it is not suitable to add too much clothing prematurely. Under such circumstances, one must consciously adapt the body to the slightly cold environment.
Appropriate cooling stimulation can increase brain excitement, promote skin metabolism, and enhance the body's cold resistance, which is consistent with the health needs of autumn Yin essence accumulated in the body.
However, it should be noted that the elderly, children and people with weak constitutions should keep warm in late autumn or when the temperature suddenly drops because their physiological functions are relatively weak and their resistance is insufficient.
To judge whether the "autumn freeze" is moderate, you must use your body to feel that there is no cold and there is no sweating as the appropriate standard. You must not blindly insist on being tough.
🍂Three rejections for autumn health care: It’s time to take all-round care
Reject autumn dryness: In addition to diet and moisturizing, the details of life are equally important.
It is not advisable to use soap that is too alkaline when bathing to avoid aggravating dry skin.
At the same time, it is necessary to keep the mood in a pleasant state and often smile on the face. This not only helps to release lung qi, but also eliminates fatigue and chest tightness. It is a simple and effective way of mental health care.
In summer, consumption is high and appetite is poor. After entering autumn, appetite improves and sleep is sufficient. The body will naturally reserve energy to survive the winter. If you don't pay attention to it, you will gain weight and resist autumn fat.
It is suggested that at this time, you should eat more adzuki beans, radishes, and barley, as well as low-calorie and dietary fiber-rich foods such as kelp. At the same time, take advantage of the sunny weather and cheerful spirits during the Double Ninth Festival to add outdoor activities, such as walking or mountain climbing, which can effectively consume calories while making the body and mind feel happy.
Autumn is a time when asthma and pharyngitis are often more likely to occur. It is also a time when cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are often more likely to occur. We must avoid the intrusion of diseases.
For those with allergies, they should try to avoid allergens such as pollen and dust mites.
People suffering from chronic pharyngitis can use Ophiopogon japonicus, honeysuckle, and green berries to soak in water instead of daily drinking tea, so as to nourish yin, clear away heat, and moisturize the throat.
For patients with cardiovascular disease, they must consistently take medications, engage in moderate physical exercise, and take a proactive attitude to prevent colds and prevent fluctuations in blood pressure due to weather changes, which may in turn induce diseases.
Only through scientific and proactive prevention can we survive the "troubled times" safely.
