Taboos for keeping healthy during heavy snow

1. Avoid licking your lips: Some people like to lick their chapped lips with their tongue in order to moisturize their lips. However, the more they lick, the drier and cracked their lips become. This is because saliva is used to moisten the mouth and digest food. It contains substances such as amylase. Licking the lips is like smearing a layer of paste on the lips. When the wind blows, the water evaporates and the amylase sticks to the lips, making them drier and even causing cracks and bleeding, leading to infection and suppuration. 2. Avoid staying up late: Chinese medicine health care places special emphasis on regular work and rest schedules and daily routines. Health preservation attaches great importance to the conditioning of the body and mind, and believes that "sleep and food are the most important things in health preservation." Good sleep can replenish energy, restore vitality, and has the effect of "nourishing yin and nourishing the essence." In order to adapt to "winter hibernation", sleep time should be appropriately increased at this time. It is recommended to go to bed early and sleep more appropriately to achieve the purpose of conserving energy. 3. Avoid sleeping with doors and windows closed: Sleeping with doors and windows closed will indeed increase the indoor temperature, but it will also bring about the problem of poor air circulation. In winter, windows should be opened several times a day to allow air circulation. Quite a number of people like to set the air conditioner temperature very high in winter. Although high air conditioning temperature makes people feel comfortable, people who stay in an air-conditioned environment for a long time are prone to nasal congestion, dry mouth, headache, decreased immune function, etc. Therefore, the temperature of the air conditioner in winter should be appropriate and not too high. 4. Avoid wearing too many clothes: If you wear too many or too thick clothes, the blood vessels in your skin will dilate, and more blood will flow to the skin, thereby increasing the heat dissipation effect. This will in turn reduce the body's ability to adapt to changes in external temperature and make you more susceptible to illness. 5. Avoid wearing masks often: In order to keep warm, many people wear masks in winter. In fact, this will reduce people's ability to keep warm. If you wear a mask all day, the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and the entire respiratory tract will not get exercise, and you will easily catch a cold if you get a little cold. Some people like to use scarves as masks. Since scarves are mostly made of wool and chemical fiber fabrics, if you wrap the scarf around your mouth, the fibers and bacteria will be inhaled into the lungs when you breathe, which is extremely harmful to human health.
