Eat nourishing food to prevent autumn dryness <br /> In terms of diet, autumn belongs to the lung metal, sour taste is astringent and nourishing to the lung, pungent taste is dispersing and purging to the lung, so autumn is more suitable for astringent than dispersing. Try to eat less pungent foods such as onions and ginger, and eat more sour and sweet fruits and vegetables. At the same time, autumn dryness can easily damage body fluids, causing dryness of the throat, nose, lips, as well as dry cough, hoarseness, chapped skin, dry stools and other dry symptoms. It is advisable to choose more sweet, cold and moisturizing products to moisten the lungs, produce body fluids, nourish yin and clear dryness.2. Do not take supplements randomly <br /> According to the principle of "nourishing yang in spring and summer, and nourishing yin in autumn and winter" in traditional Chinese medicine, we have entered the season of autumn supplements, but you should not take supplements randomly in autumn and pay attention to the five major taboos. First of all, avoid taking supplements when you are not sick. Taking supplements when you are not sick will not only increase your expenses but also harm yourself. For example: taking too much cod liver oil may cause poisoning, and long-term use of glucose may cause weight gain. In addition, increased cholesterol in the blood can easily induce cardiovascular diseases; secondly, avoid taking tonic foods just for the sake of reputation. Some citizens blindly believe that the more expensive the medicine, the more beneficial it is to the body. But in fact, excessive abuse of tonics may lead to excessive excitement, irritability, high blood pressure, and even nose bleeding. 3. Choose easy and gentle exercise <br /> In autumn, health preservation should focus on "harvesting". It is advisable to choose exercises that are easy, gentle and do not require much activity. You can also do some cold-resistant exercises and aerobic exercises. Appropriate cold water exercise is also effective in preventing colds, runny noses and bronchitis. Therefore, you can use cold water to wash your face, feet, and nose. People with a strong body can also take cold baths. 4. Be careful to prevent colds <br /> In autumn, the temperature difference between morning and evening is large. You should add or remove clothes in time according to weather changes and your physical condition to prevent colds. But there is no need to "wear more clothes" too early. Instead, you should pay attention to cold-resistance exercises, which is often called "autumn cold." If you want to achieve good fitness results, do not wear light clothes when doing outdoor activities. You should add or remove clothes according to the changes in outdoor temperature. When exercising, you should not take off too many clothes at once. You should wait until your body is warm before taking off your clothes. After exercise, avoid staying in cold wind in sweaty clothes to prevent catching a cold. |
