How should we maintain health during Bailu?

1. Pay attention to nourishing the lungs and moistening dryness <br /> After Bailu, the Yang Qi in nature tends to be restrained from being dispersed, and the air becomes dry. The lungs are a delicate organ and are easily damaged by autumn dryness, which makes people prone to dry mouth, dry throat, dry stool, and cracked skin. At this time, health care should focus on nourishing the body and moistening the dryness. In daily diet, it is advisable to eat more foods with mild nature, sweet or sweet and warm taste, as well as nutritious and easily digestible tonic foods. Drinking a bowl of porridge in the morning can not only cure the autumn chill but also prevent autumn dryness, such as white fungus porridge, lotus rice porridge, sesame porridge, red date porridge, sweet potato porridge, corn porridge, etc. Pears, apples, grapes, oranges, grapefruits, persimmons, longans, etc. are all fruits suitable for eating in autumn.
2. Don’t be too greedy for coolness at night <br /> As the saying goes, “Don’t expose yourself during the White Dew, be careful in the morning and evening.” After the White Dew solar term, although the daytime temperature can still reach over 30 degrees Celsius, the temperature difference between day and night is large, with lower temperatures at night. If it rains, the temperature drop will be more obvious. Therefore, it is best not to turn on the air conditioner when sleeping at night, and you should not expose your chest and back. You must pay attention to keeping your abdomen, joints, etc. warm to avoid catching a cold and causing some illnesses.
3. Add clothes in time in the morning and evening <br /> There is a saying among the people that "the night of White Dew and Autumnal Equinox is colder every night", and Chinese medicine also has the saying that "don't expose your body during White Dew and don't expose your feet during Cold Dew". This means that the weather will gradually become cooler, and we can no longer wear bare-chested clothes in daily life like we do in summer. We need to add clothes in time according to weather changes to prevent catching a cold. Therefore, it is best for the elderly and children to add clothes in time. At the same time, pay attention to keeping your feet warm, as the cold starts from the feet.
4. Combine active and quiet exercise outdoors <br /> Autumn has a pleasant climate and is a good season for exercise. During the White Dew solar term, you can add some outdoor sports to the "autumn cold" to maintain your health. However, the choice of sports should vary from person to person. It is not advisable to engage in overly strenuous activities. Instead, you should focus on more soothing sports such as mountain climbing, Tai Chi, and walking. You should do what you are able to do.

What food is suitable to eat during Bailu?

1. Pear: Clears the heart, reduces fire and relieves autumn dryness
Pears have the effects of moistening dryness and eliminating wind, relieving cough and asthma, clearing the heart and reducing fire. They can relieve "autumn dryness" and sober up and detoxify. Raw pears are cool in nature, so the elderly should not eat too many at one time. For people with weak spleen and stomach, you can also make pear water stewed with rock sugar, which is also a good way to consume it.
2. Jujube: calms the mind and resists allergies
Jujubes have the effects of calming the mind, improving intelligence and brain health, enhancing appetite, removing fishy smell and odor, resisting allergies, and improving immunity. They can also prevent and treat hypertension, osteoporosis and anemia. They are a good tonic for the elderly in autumn.
3. Chrysanthemum: Removes dryness, moisturizes the throat and prevents colds
Chrysanthemum can soothe wind and calm the liver, clear the heart and relieve restlessness, remove dryness and moisten the throat, promote fluid production and improve eyesight, and detoxify alcohol. It has a certain auxiliary therapeutic effect on colds and headaches. The elderly can drink chrysanthemum tea appropriately in autumn to achieve the purpose of removing heat and moistening the lungs.
4. Sweet potatoes: prevent cancer and help detoxify
Sweet potatoes are regarded as the best food on the table. They have the effects of preventing cancer, preventing constipation, and losing weight. Eating sweet potatoes regularly can prolong your life.
5. Longan: replenishes qi, nourishes the spleen, nourishes blood and calms the mind
There is a traditional custom in Fuzhou, Fujian called "eating longan during the White Dew Festival". The folk belief is that eating longan on the day of White Dew has a miraculous effect of nourishing the body. Because longan itself has many functions such as invigorating qi and spleen, nourishing blood and calming the nerves, moisturizing the skin and beautifying, it can also treat anemia, insomnia, neurasthenia and other diseases.
