In traditional Chinese medicine, the coldness of the Great Cold can damage the body's yang energy. Therefore, during the Great Cold season, there are many things that need to be paid attention to, otherwise it will cause some damage to the body. What issues should we pay attention to? Come here to find out.What should we pay attention to during the Great Cold?1. Avoid cold radiation During the Great Cold season, you should prevent the harm of cold radiation to your body. Specific measures are to stay away from overly cold walls and other objects, and stay at least 50 cm away from the wall when sleeping. If the temperature difference between the wall and the indoor temperature exceeds 5°C, the wall will often appear damp and even have small water droplets. At this time, you can place wooden boards or foam plastics in front of the wall to block and reduce negative radiation, thereby protecting the body from damage by negative radiation. 2. Go to bed early and get up late. "Dahan" is the last solar term in winter. In terms of daily life, we should still conform to the characteristics of winter's hibernation and go to bed early and get up late. Going to bed early is to nourish the body's yang energy, and getting up late is to nourish the yin energy. On the other hand, there is an old saying that goes "Great Cold, Great Cold, protect against wind and cold". During the Great Cold season, in addition to protecting against cold, you must also protect against wind. Clothing should be increased or decreased as the temperature changes, and you should pay attention to keeping warm. 3. Drink more water. No matter which solar term it is, it is necessary to drink more water. Water can improve human circulation and is good for expelling dampness, toxins and bacteria from the body. Of course, in the severe cold season, we should not drink cold water, but try to drink warm or relatively hot water, which is good for our health. 4. Wash your feet before going to bed. During the Great Cold season, in addition to going to bed early and getting up late, preventing cold and wind, it is best to develop a good habit of washing your feet before going to bed. Soaking your feet in hot water before going to bed can dilate blood vessels, accelerate blood flow, improve nutrition of foot skin and tissue, reduce muscle tension, and improve sleep quality. It is beneficial for preventing frozen feet and disease prevention and health care. Especially for those who like to read and write at night and sit until late at night, they should soak their feet in hot water before going to bed.What fruit is better to eat during the Great Cold season?1. Orange Orange is known as the "good fruit for curing diseases". It is rich in vitamin C, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, carotene, citric acid, hesperidin, as well as aldehydes, alcohols, alkenes and other substances. Oranges are high in fiber and low in calories. They contain natural sugars and are a good choice to replace regular meals or desserts such as candies, cakes, and cookies. People who love sweets but want to lose weight can eat oranges to satisfy their desire for sweets. 2. Pears In winter, it is easy to have dry lips, thirst and dry skin. Chinese medicine believes that pears are slightly cold in nature and sweet in taste, and can produce fluid to quench thirst, moisten dryness and resolve phlegm, and moisten the intestines and promote bowel movements. Now is the season for eating pears. Pears are known as the "king of fruits" and their pear juice has a unique therapeutic effect on autumn and winter dryness. It is especially suitable for people who suffer from internal heat in winter. 3. Oranges Winter is coming and the weather is cold. From a health perspective, it is advisable to eat warm fruits that nourish the kidneys. The bright yellow oranges all over the streets are just right. Orange pulp is rich in vitamin C, citric acid, dietary fiber and pectin, which can assist in the treatment of hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis and various cardiovascular diseases. It also has the effects of appetizing and regulating qi, relieving cough and moistening the lungs, and sobering up and refreshing the mind. It is mainly used to treat vomiting, loss of appetite, dry mouth, lung heat cough, excessive drinking and other symptoms. |
