For diet and health care, you must know the changes in the four seasons and the relationship between food and human physiology. Because heaven, earth, and people are a whole, and people are related to heaven and earth. Spring Health Recipes There is one principle to follow in spring diet and health: according to changes in temperature, food gradually changes from warm and tonic, pungent and sweet to light and yin-nourishing products. In early spring, the diet should be warm and avoid cold. In early spring, you should eat some warm tonic vegetables and wild vegetables such as bamboo shoots, toona sinensis, spinach, willow sprouts, shepherd's purse, onions, ginger, garlic, leeks, mustard greens, etc. You should not blindly eat warm tonics such as ginseng to prevent the temperature from gradually rising in spring. It aggravates internal heat in the body and damages the body's righteousness; you should eat less cucumber, winter melon, eggplant, mung bean and other cooling foods. The food in mid-spring should be spicy and sweet. Appropriately eat yams, red dates, honey, celery and other foods that can nourish the spleen and stomach. At the same time, pay attention to taking in sufficient amounts of vitamins to improve the body's immunity. Eat less acidic foods to prevent damage to the spleen and stomach. The diet in late spring should be clear and tonic. You can choose sugar cane juice, shepherd's purse, lily, snail, duck meat, bitter melon, seaweed, kelp, jellyfish, mung beans and other tonic foods. Eat less spicy, sticky, cold and fatty foods. Summer Health Recipe Summer is the season when Yang Qi is at its strongest. This is also the time when human body metabolism is at its strongest. The human body sweats too much and easily loses body fluids. Therefore, summer health care should focus on light food to avoid damaging body fluids and consuming Qi. Summer diet is more light. In summer when there is heat, the digestive function of the spleen and stomach is relatively weak. You should eat some heat-clearing and detoxifying foods. Vegetables such as chrysanthemum, celery, cabbage, coriander, bitter gourd, bamboo shoots, cucumber, winter melon, etc.; fish such as herring, crucian carp, Silver carp, etc., these foods can clear away heat, relieve fatigue, and have a certain preventive effect on stomach and intestinal diseases. Summer diet should replenish qi. You can appropriately choose some foods that nourish yin and qi, such as carrots, spinach, longan, lychee, peanuts, tomatoes, etc. Eat more whole grains, vegetables and fruits to cool the body, but raw and cold fruits and vegetables should be eaten in moderation, and do not overeat to avoid being too cold and damaging the spleen and stomach. In summer, the heart qi is strong and it is easy to hurt the qi and yin. In this season, you should focus on nourishing qi, nourishing yin, and clearing away heat, such as winter melon, watermelon, lotus root, duck meat, etc. It is not advisable to eat more warm, tonic, greasy, and rich foods. . Autumn Health Recipe In autumn, Yang Qi gradually decreases and Yin Qi gradually grows. At this time, the human body should also comply with the changing laws of the four seasons and enter the opportunity to protect Yin Qi. In terms of diet, it should mainly prevent dryness and nourish Yin, nourish Yin and moisturize the lungs. Food should be sweet and moist in autumn. It is advisable to choose sweet and cold nourishing foods, such as lilies, white fungus, yam, pears, grapes, water chestnuts, glutinous rice, sugar cane, soy milk, sesame, lotus root, spinach, pig lung, turtle meat, olives, etc. These foods can moisten the lungs and promote body fluids, The effect of nourishing yin and clearing dryness. You should eat less spicy foods such as onions, ginger, and peppers. Autumn diet should be nutritious. Taking supplements in autumn is one of the key points of traditional Chinese medicine health care. It lays a good foundation for winter supplements and avoids the occurrence of deficiency in winter. You can take appropriate Chinese medicinal materials such as Adenophora, Ophiopogon japonicus, lily, almonds, and Sichuan Fritillaria, which are helpful for alleviating autumn dryness. Good effect. In autumn, it is better to add less pungent and more acid. In autumn, you should eat less spicy foods such as onions, ginger, garlic, leeks, and peppers to avoid damaging your lungs; you should eat more sour fruits and vegetables, such as apples, pomegranates, grapes, mangoes, grapefruits, lemons, and hawthorns. Wait for sour food to prevent autumn dryness. The important principle of health preservation in winter is "nourishing the kidneys and preventing cold". The kidney is the driving force of human life. With strong kidney qi and strong vitality, the body can adapt to the changes of severe winter. The key to ensuring strong kidney qi is to prevent the invasion of severe cold weather. Winter diet should follow the principles of "nourishing yin in autumn and winter", "nourishing the kidneys to prevent cold", and "nourishing yin and calming yang". The diet should mainly nourish yin and subdue yang and increase calories. [Nourishing the kidneys first] Cold air should be used in the kidneys. The kidney is the driving force of human life and the "innate foundation" of the human body. In winter, the human body's yang energy is restrained, and the human body's physiological activities are also restrained. At this time, the kidneys must not only prepare enough energy to maintain heat expenditure in winter, but also store a certain amount of energy for the coming year, so nourishing the kidneys is crucial at this time. In terms of diet, you must always pay attention to the maintenance of the kidneys, pay attention to the supplement of calories, eat more animal foods and beans, and supplement vitamins and inorganic salts. Dog meat, mutton, goose meat, duck meat, soybeans, walnuts, chestnuts, fungus, sesame, sweet potato, radish, etc. are all suitable foods in winter. [Warm food and avoid hard foods] Sticky, hard, cold foods are mostly yin, and eating such foods in winter can easily damage the spleen and stomach. Food that is too hot can easily damage the esophagus, and after entering the intestines and stomach, it can easily cause heat accumulation in the body and cause illness; food that is too cold can easily stimulate the blood vessels of the spleen and stomach, causing poor blood flow, and reduced blood volume will seriously affect the blood circulation of other organs. It is harmful to human health. Therefore, the diet in winter should be warm and soft. [Increased bitterness and less salty] In winter, kidney function is relatively strong. If you eat more salty foods, kidney qi will be more strong, which will greatly damage the heart, weaken the heart, and affect human health. Therefore, in winter, you should eat less salty food to prevent excessive kidney water; eat more bitter food to nourish the heart and enhance kidney function. Commonly used foods include: betel nut, orange, pork liver, sheep liver, kohlrabi, Lettuce, vinegar, tea, etc. Mental recuperation: In addition to paying attention to maintaining mental tranquility, you must also learn to regulate bad emotions in a timely manner when the spirit is hidden within. When you are in a state of tension, excitement, anxiety, depression, etc., you should restore mental calm as soon as possible. At the same time, we must also prevent the occurrence of seasonal affective disorder in winter. The so-called seasonal affective disorder refers to the phenomenon that some people are prone to depression, laziness, lethargy, and drowsiness in winter, and they appear year after year. This phenomenon is more common among young people, especially women. The preventive method is to spend more time in the sun to extend the exposure time, which is a natural therapy to regulate your mood.

Diet and health care: The basic principle of winter diet and health care should be to focus on "storing calories". Therefore, foods that should be eaten more in winter include mutton, dog meat, goose meat, duck meat, radish, walnuts, chestnuts, sweet potatoes, etc. At the same time, we must also follow the principle of "eat less salty food and eat more bitter food": Winter is the time when the kidney meridian is strong, and the kidneys govern salty and the heart governs bitterness. If you eat too much salty food, it will make the already overactive kidney water. becomes more intense, thus weakening the power of heart yang. Therefore, you should eat more bitter foods to support your heart yang. Do not eat sticky, hard, raw or cold foods in winter, because such foods are "drinks" and can easily damage the yang energy of the spleen and stomach. Daily health care: The "Huangdi Neijing" points out: "Go to bed early and get up late to wait for the sun." This means that in winter, you should go to bed early and get up late. It is best to get up after the sun comes out (especially for the elderly) . The following points should be paid attention to in daily life and health in winter: First of all, when dressing, pay attention to the "clothing climate", which means that the temperature between the inner layer of clothes and the skin should always be maintained at 32°C ~ 33°C. This ideal "clothing climate" can buffer The invasion of human body by cold weather outside. Secondly, pay attention to keeping your feet warm. Because the feet are farthest from the heart and have a slow and slow blood supply, the skin temperature of the feet is the lowest. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that cold in the feet will inevitably affect the internal organs, which can lead to diarrhea, irregular menstruation, impotence, waist and leg pain and other symptoms. Third, opening windows regularly for ventilation in winter is good for your health. Fourth, it is not advisable to sleep with your head covered. Sleeping with your head covered in winter is extremely likely to cause hypoxia, which may lead to chest tightness and shortness of breath. Fifth, avoid holding urine at night. Because winter nights are long, holding in urine for a long time will accumulate toxic substances and cause cystitis, urethritis, etc. Exercise and strengthen your body: As the saying goes: "If you move in winter, you will be less likely to get sick; if you are lazy in winter, you will drink more medicine." Facts have proved that participating in more outdoor activities in winter can make the body receive appropriate cold stimulation and make the heart beat. Accelerate breathing, deepen the metabolism in the body, and increase the heat generated by the body, which is beneficial to health. Spring: How to make leeks and bamboo.
