As soon as the Spring Festival passed, Grandma Li's house should have been a happy moment of reunion, who knew that her grandson Xiao Ming had been lying on her stomach for several days, Grandma Li was panicked, and Lao Li was also coughing and sneezing. Xiao Ming's mother asked anxiously, "What's wrong with us?" Is it out of season to eat too many cold drinks? Or did you forget the time at the Spring Festival party and sleep late and your immunity decreases? Lao Li shook his head and said:"Something is wrong, could it be that this spring is too wet and cold, we have to take care of our bodies. ”
Every year when spring comes, the topic of health is always hot. But this year, health preservation is not only about eating well, including Grandma Li's family, all ages should be carefulSome good habits can be the culprit of quietly depleting your yang energy. Yes, you heard it right, for example, eating more fruits, drinking more water, exercising more and other things that we take for granted, when used in the wrong way, can also be debilitating. You must know that yang energy, like warm sun, is an indispensable foundation for human health. According to traditional Chinese medicine, among the five fortunes and six qi, this year's climate is characterized by the year of Taitu, that is, the humidity is heavy. If the humidity is heavy, the cold evil will take advantage of the void to enter, so this year, the focus of health preservation must be to replenish yang qi and drive out those cold and damp evils.
Once the yang energy is sufficient, the body is naturally healthy. Especially in spring, everything grows, and so does the human body, with enough yang energy, children stretch tall, and adults rarely get sick. On the other hand, if the yang energy is insufficient, the whole person is like losing the protective layer and is easily invaded by viruses and bacteria. But unconsciously, during the Chinese New Year this year, the body temperature of the members of Grandma Li's family dropped and the tongue coating was pale, which is undoubtedly a sign of insufficient yang energy. Now, let's take a good look at those habits that seem to be beneficial on the surface, but in fact they may steal your yang energy secretly.
Eat more seasonal fruits and strawberriesIt looked so good, and Grandma Li also carried back a big basket in disguise. However, strawberries are cold in nature, and excessive consumption will take away the trace of yang energy in spring. Especially for the elderly and children who are already cold, do not exceed three at a time! If you buy too much, don't be greedy, make jam in a different way, and garnish it for breakfast, which is also delicious and healthy. Let's talk about drinking eight glasses of water a day, Grandma Li's wife has persisted for several years, but why is the spleen and stomach wrong recently? It turns out that everyone's water needs are not rigid and fixed, and traditional Chinese medicine advocates "don't drink if you're not thirsty, drink warmly, and drink slowly in small sips". Excessive ice water is not only detrimental to the spleen and stomach, but also increases the burden on the body and consumes precious yang energy.
As for exercising more,**100 pounds is really a popular concept, but for the body of the elderly, excessive strenuous exercise and sweating too much are undoubtedly squandering yang energy. Gentle movement not only moves the muscles and bones, but also protects the body from injury. Having said all this, how can we have enough yang energy to accumulate enough "combat effectiveness" in spring? Don't worry, there's a trick here.
In spring, we should go out more, be accompanied by the spring breeze, climb the mountain, breathe the wood qi of nature, give the liver a chance to decompress, and let the yang energy in the body rise unhindered. When we get home, let's eat more spring vegetables. Grandma Li's refrigerator should not always be full of meat, seasonal spinach and bean sprouts are not only fresh and delicious, but also a good product for maintaining the spleen and stomach in spring. Also remember to warm up your kidneys. Adults can rest by standing on the pile, and children can jump and move their spine more, so that yang energy can flow in the body. Try warm acupuncture stickers to boost your immunity.
In short, with the joint efforts of the liver, spleen, and kidneys, the yang energy in spring can be effectively replenished. Grandma Li listened to my suggestion and said happily, "You have to try it quickly, you can't let the yang energy run away again!" Sun Xiaoming's eyes lit up after hearing this, "It turns out that there is so much knowledge about health preservation!" Lao Li nodded frequently, as if he had a new understanding and plan for his spleen and stomach. The spring with abundant yang energy will surely make the whole family glow with different vitality and brilliance. So, dear you, don't be in a hurry, there are more health tips waiting for you, so stay tuned and learned.
