Why is it easy to get angry in winter
First, in terms of diet, people like to eat beef and mutton to keep out the cold in winter, such as hot pot, barbecue and instant-boiled mutton, which are all very popular winter delicacies. However, the beef and mutton itself is warm, plus spicy ingredients such as onion, ginger, garlic and pepper, and tonics such as cinnamon, ginger, medlar and angelica, which can be described as "dryness plus dryness". After people eat it, it is easy to accumulate heat in the body, which is not easy to emit, and it is easy to cause "getting angry".
Second, irregular working hours, insufficient rest at night and overwork are also important reasons for getting angry. With the increasing pressure at the end of the year, many people will inevitably be irritable, anxious and easily get angry. "Fire" becomes "poisonous gas" if it can't be dispersed, which makes the body's immunity decline.
Third, in the northern region, the climate itself is very dry, coupled with the widespread use of indoor heating and the hot indoor environment, which will make people's tracheal mucosa purification worse, directly lead to dryness of the nasal cavity and throat, and affect the balance and stability of human metabolism. If you don't pay attention to diet adjustment and water supplement, it will easily lead to imbalance between Yin and Yang, leading to "excessive internal heat".
