What are the taboos of autumn health preservation? How to keep healthy after the beginning of autumn

In the hot summer, what people are looking forward to most is the arrival of autumn. Tomorrow is the beginning of autumn. The temperature is still relatively high after the beginning of autumn, but the wind in the beginning of autumn is cooler than that in the summer, and the night is also cooler. In order to maintain health in the beginning of autumn, we should pay attention to regulating the spleen and stomach and preventing dryness in the autumn. What are the taboos?

1. Suitable for dispelling heat and nourishing yin

After the beginning of autumn, the temperature difference between day and night increases, so we should adhere to the principle of eliminating heat and clearing away heat in diet, and eat more yin nourishing and lung moistening foods. Medical experts believe that in autumn, dryness will rise and body fluid will be easily damaged. Therefore, it is advisable to nourish yin and moisten lung in diet. You can eat sesame, glutinous rice, japonica rice, honey, loquat, pineapple, dairy and other soft and moist foods to benefit your stomach and promote fluid production. In addition, eat more beans and other foods, and less greasy and tasty things.

Considering that the weather may still be hot, citizens can reduce heat and dispel heat by eating more vegetables and fruits, supplement vitamins and minerals in time, neutralize excess acid metabolites in the body, and play the role of clearing fire and detoxification. Vegetables should be fresh and juicy, such as: cucumber, winter melon, tomato, celery, etc. Fruit should be used for nourishing yin and promoting body fluid, such as grapes, watermelons, pears and bananas. In addition, we need to remind that eating a large number of melons and fruits after autumn is easy to cause stomach and intestinal diseases. Therefore, people with deficiency of spleen and stomach should not eat too much.

2. Regulate the spleen and stomach

In fact, for a long time after the beginning of autumn, the temperature is still high, and the air humidity is also high. After the suffering of bitter summer, many people's spleen and stomach are often weak. In such a climate, regulating the spleen and stomach should focus on clearing heat, promoting dampness and strengthening the spleen, so that the evil of dampness and heat in the body can be discharged from the urine and promote the recovery of the function of the spleen and stomach.

People with spleen deficiency often suffer from anorexia, tiredness and yellow complexion. In autumn, they may as well eat some healthy and stomach food to promote the recovery of spleen and stomach functions, such as Gorgon, yam, etc.

After a summer, people's body consumption is very large, especially some old people, mostly spleen and stomach deficiency cold. Therefore, in the selection of food, it should not be too cold, such as watermelon, pear, cucumber, etc., to eat less.

3. Focus on Nourishing Yin and tonifying deficiency

Autumn is a good time to nourish yin and tonify deficiency, but autumn tonic can not be disorderly tonic, only to understand their own constitution is good for tonic.

If the breath is short, the voice is low, the spirit is tired and lazy, the movement causes sweating, the appetite is reduced, and the tongue is weak, which belongs to the constitution of qi deficiency. It's the easiest way to make water or porridge with Astragalus, dangshen and American ginseng.

If the complexion is pale, the lips are pale, the night is hot and night sweats, the skin is dry and astringent, and the tongue is light red without moss, it belongs to the constitution of blood deficiency. You can use angelica, jujube, Polygonum multiflorum and mulberry to make porridge. You can also add some when stewing chicken soup and stewed meat.

If the cheekbones are flushed, the mouth is dry, the throat is dry, the night sweat, the urine is less and red, the stool is secret, the tongue is red and less moss is the constitution of yin deficiency. You can use Ophiopogon japonicus, Schisandra, yam, lily, etc. when cooking porridge, you can put several flavors.

4. Adjust mood and guard against autumn dryness

In summer, people often lose too much after sweating, which will lead to the lack of nutrition and water in the body. After entering autumn, the weather becomes cool and dry, so it is easy to get dry in autumn. According to traditional Chinese medicine, dryness is the evil of six evils, which is the main Qi in autumn. It is dry and easy to consume body fluid. A series of common symptoms, such as dry mouth and tongue, astringent nose and sore throat, dry skin, dry stool and restlessness, are called "autumn dryness syndrome" in medicine.

The elderly have poor adaptability and tolerance to autumn climate change, so more attention should be paid to prevention. In order to prevent dryness in autumn, the basic principles should be nourishing Yin, clearing dryness, moistening lung and promoting fluid production. After the beginning of autumn, it is mainly warm and dry, which is characterized by damp heat, yin deficiency and fire. The hot weather of "autumn tiger" is inevitable in early autumn. This kind of weather can easily make people feel upset. We should actively prevent "emotional heatstroke".

To achieve peace of mind, mind, and mood, do not worry about sad things, even if you encounter sad things, you should also take the initiative to solve. At the same time, we should astringent our spirit to adapt to the calmness of autumn. If the human body disobeys the Qi of autumn convergence, it will hurt the lung qi. In autumn, Lung Qi is harmed. In winter, pathological changes will occur. This is because people do not have enough strength to raise 'gas collection' in autumn and 'gas storage' in winter.

5. Food and clothing should be mildew proof

At the beginning of autumn, the rainfall increases the humidity greatly, the weather is sultry, and the food and clothing are prone to mildew. Generally speaking, if the temperature is above 35 ℃, and the relative humidity will increase, it is easy to produce mildew. Eating moldy food will cause gastrointestinal diseases, such as diarrhea, vomiting, enteritis and dysentery.

Moldy foods include bread, cake, cooked meat, fish and shrimp, milk, egg, peach, banana, sugarcane, rice, beans, etc. Mildew occurs in clothes, bed sheets and bedding, which can also cause skin allergy. It should be noted that the cooked meat in closed package should be eaten within one day after it is opened. If it takes a long time, it can be eaten only after it is fully heated without confirmed deterioration. The milk must not go bad. Moldy rice, bread and cake must not be eaten.

6. Need to prevent 'air conditioning disease'

After the beginning of autumn, the air conditioning in the office remains the same, but people are easy to suffer from air conditioning diseases while enjoying the cool air. Especially after the beginning of autumn, the weather is cooler sooner or later. If you don't pay attention to it, you will have abdominal pain, diarrhea, cold, waist and shoulder pain and other symptoms. After the beginning of autumn, the weather will be cooler in the morning and evening. It is not easy to open the air conditioner for a long time. It is better not to turn on or only turn on dehumidification at night. In this way, it can not only cool down and dispel summer heat, but also prevent air conditioning diseases. Second, people in air-conditioned environment often drink ginger tea. If you are weak, you can prepare a coat in the office to avoid the cold.
