What should we pay attention to during the Minor Cold in 2019? What are the principles of health preservation during Xiaohan?
Minor Cold is the coldest time of the year. The temperature drops sharply at this time, which can easily cause cardiovascular diseases. So what should we pay attention to during Minor Cold in 2019? What are the principles of health preservation during Xiaohan? It is November of the lunar calendar in 2018. Follow Shuimoxiansheng.com and we will accompany you through the cold winter.What should we pay attention to during the Minor Cold in 2019?1. Preventing stomach problems in the elderly During the Lesser Cold, the weather is extremely cold and has a great irritation to the stomach, which can easily cause gastrointestinal cramps. The elderly with stomach problems are more likely to suffer a recurrence of old diseases, or even cause more serious stomach diseases such as gastric bleeding and gastric perforation. Therefore, during the Lesser Cold season, the elderly should pay more attention to keeping their stomachs warm, choose warm and easily digestible foods, try not to eat raw or cold foods, and reduce the chances of stomach problems.2. Prevent colds in cold seasons . Colds are a common disease in winter. Many people think that this is not a big problem. However, for the elderly, their body's disease resistance is weak. If they catch a cold and do not treat it in time, it is easy to cause more serious complications, such as pneumonia, asthma, chronic bronchitis, etc. Therefore, during the Lesser Cold season, the elderly should pay attention to keeping warm and preventing colds. They can soak their feet in hot water every night to enhance their resistance to disease and prevent colds. 3. The elderly need to prevent stroke . It is reported that more than 70% of stroke patients occur in winter, so more attention should be paid during the Minor Cold season. The weather is cold, and the human body is stimulated by the cold, which causes the capillaries throughout the body to contract and the peripheral resistance of blood circulation to increase, which can easily cause high blood pressure, lead to thrombosis, and ultimately cause a stroke. During the Lesser Cold season, elderly people suffering from hypertension and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases must pay attention to their physical health. If they find symptoms such as dizziness, headache, limb numbness, etc., they should seek medical attention in time. 4. The elderly need to prevent heart disease. Winter is the season with a high incidence of heart disease. In cold areas, for every 1 degree drop in temperature, the mortality rate from cardiovascular disease increases by 1%. When the weather is cold, the heart works harder to maintain body heat, and the heart's workload increases. Therefore, in winter, we should pay attention to nourishing our heart and keep our mind calm. Especially the elderly with high blood pressure should pay more attention to regulating their emotions. An optimistic mood can promote the smooth flow of Qi and blood in the body and ensure the normal functioning of internal organs. What are the principles of health preservation during Xiaohan?1. Daily life health care The "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" emphasizes "do not disturb the yang, go to bed early and get up late, and wait for daylight." That is to say, in the cold winter, do not disrupt the body's physiological function of yin and yang conversion by disturbing the yang energy. During the coldest seasons, you should get enough sleep, which is beneficial for the hiding of Yang energy and the accumulation of Yin essence. Wearing too few or too thin clothes or keeping the room temperature too low can easily cause colds and deplete your yang energy. On the contrary, if you wear too many clothes or the room temperature is too high, the pores will open, the Yang Qi will not be hidden, and the cold evil will easily invade. When dressing, we should consider the "clothing climate", which means that the temperature between the inner layer of clothes and the skin should always be maintained at 32℃ ~ 33℃. This ideal "clothing climate" can buffer the invasion of the cold climate outside on the human body.2. Mental adjustment: In winter, people are easily affected by stoves, heaters, dry climate, etc., which can easily make them "get angry" and their moods change. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that anger causes the qi to rise and disturbs the yang energy. Therefore, we should pay attention to emotional regulation in winter. In winter, we should also prevent the occurrence of seasonal affective disorder. The so-called seasonal affective disorder refers to the fact that some people are prone to depression, laziness, drowsiness, drowsiness, etc. in winter, and these phenomena occur year after year. This phenomenon is more common among young people, especially women. The way to prevent it is to get more sun exposure to extend the time of sunlight, which is a natural remedy for regulating mood. 3. Diet adjustment: In winter, you should eat more warm foods to improve the body's ability to withstand cold. The kidney controls salty taste, and the heart controls bitter taste. Salt can overcome bitterness, so in winter, the taste of diet should be less salty and more bitter, following the principle of "less salty and more bitter" to replenish heart qi and strengthen kidney qi. 4. Exercise to strengthen your body. Participate in outdoor activities appropriately in winter to give your body appropriate cold stimulation and make up for insufficient sunlight. After getting up in winter, washing hands and face with cold water is good for the body. It can "awaken yang energy", enhance resistance to cold, help adapt to environmental changes, speed up the heartbeat, deepen breathing, strengthen metabolism in the body, and increase the heat generated by the body. In winter, you can practice Tai Chi, clapping exercises, meridian-dredging exercises, etc.; or do jogging, walking, skipping rope, ball games and other sports. But do not exercise excessively and do not sweat too much to prevent a cold. Avoid exercising in bad weather such as strong winds, heavy fog, rain or snow. |
