1, health care methods in winter
The methods of health care in winter are: mental health care, food health care and daily health care.
1. Peace is the foundation
Maintaining the spirit should be based on stability and tranquility in winter, so as to maintain mental happiness and emotional stability. In Huangdi Neijing, it means that in winter, we should avoid the interference and stimulation of all kinds of bad emotions, keep our mood indifferent and quiet, keep things secret, make our mind quiet and free, and fill our inner world with optimism and joy.
2. Eat more and be warm
Eating less, being cold and keeping in good health in winter should be supplemented by food. Traditional health preserving science divides food into three categories: cold, warm and flat. In winter, the climate is cold. In order to keep warm, people should eat more warm food and less cold food. Warm foods include glutinous rice, sorghum rice, chestnuts, jujubes, walnuts, almonds, leeks, parsley, pumpkins, ginger, onions and garlic.
3. Go to bed early and get up late
Avoiding cold and keeping warm in winter is expensive in fresh air, "work at sunrise and rest at sunset". In winter, it is particularly important to ensure adequate sleep time. From the perspective of traditional health preservation, appropriately increasing sleep time in winter is conducive to the hidden yang and the accumulation of yin essence, so that the human body can achieve a healthy state of "Yin is the secret and the spirit is the rule".
2, warm parts in winter
1. Keep your neck warm.
Some people continue to cough in winter and it is not easy to cure. After careful observation, it turns out that the cold air directly stimulates the trachea because the neck is exposed by wearing an open-necked dress, but the symptoms disappear after changing the high-necked dress and adding a wool scarf.
2. Pay attention to keeping your back warm.
The back is the yang in the human body, and pathogenic factors such as wind-cold can easily invade through the back and cause exogenous diseases, respiratory diseases and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Pay attention to keep your back warm, wear a cotton vest, and keep your back warm when sleeping to avoid the invasion of cold evil, so as not to damage the yang.
Third, pay attention to the warmth of your feet.
Foot is the foundation of human body, the beginning of Sanyin Meridian and the end of Sanyang Meridian, which is related to the twelve meridians, fu organs and qi and blood. As the saying goes, "cold starts from the foot", because the foot is far away from the heart, the blood supply is insufficient, the heat is less, and the thermal insulation is poor, so it is very important to keep the foot warm. In addition to keeping your feet warm during the day, washing your feet with hot water every night can promote the blood circulation of the whole body, enhance the body's defense ability, eliminate fatigue and improve sleep.
3, winter health care matters needing attention
1, the best time for health care.
Experiments show that the biological clock is at its peak at 5-6 in the morning, and the body temperature rises. At this time, you will get up full of energy.
2. Keep warm.
Listen to the weather forecast on time, add clothes and warm facilities with the change of temperature. Soak your feet with hot water before going to bed 10 minutes 3, and the room temperature should be appropriate. If the air conditioning temperature should not be too high, the temperature difference between inside and outside the room should not be too large, and the temperature difference between inside and outside the room should be 4-5 degrees.
3. Open the window for ventilation.
Every morning at 9- 1 1, the best ventilation effect is to open the window at 2-4 pm.
4, exercise in the morning is not casual.
Not too early. Many people choose to do morning exercises before dawn or at dawn (around 5 o'clock), thinking that the environment is quiet and the air is fresh. Actually, that's not the case. Because of the cooling effect of the air near the ground at night, it is easy to form a stable inversion layer, just like a cover, which covers the air, making it difficult for pollutants in the air near the ground to spread, and the concentration of pollutants is the highest at this time. Therefore, morning exercisers should consciously avoid this period of time and choose after sunrise, because after sunrise, the temperature begins to rise, the counter-atmosphere layer is destroyed, and pollutants spread out. This is a good opportunity for morning exercise.
5. Never choose a forest.
Many people think that when doing morning exercises in the Woods, there is enough oxygen to meet the demand for oxygen during exercise. But this is not the case. Because the chlorophyll of plants can only be photosynthesized with the participation of sunlight, producing fresh oxygen and releasing a lot of carbon dioxide. Therefore, the green trees are a good place for walking during the day, but not an ideal place for exercise in the morning.
6, middle-aged and elderly people should not do morning exercises.
Because of the heart infarction and ischemia, heart rate disorder and other diseases in the middle-aged and elderly population, the peak attack occurs from morning to noon within 24 hours a day. If you exercise during this period, especially in the early morning, it will induce serious heart rate disorder, myocardial ischemia and other accidents, and even lead to catastrophic consequences of sudden death, but exercise in the afternoon to evening is rare.
7. drink water.
Because I didn't drink water all night, my blood was thick in the morning, which increased the risk of blood vessel blockage. After getting up, the sympathetic nerve excitability increases, the heart rate accelerates, and the heart itself needs more blood. At 9- 10 in the morning, the blood pressure is the highest in the day, so the morning is the time when strokes and infarctions occur frequently. It is called devil's time in medicine. Drinking a cup of boiled water after getting up early can replenish the body's water and wash the stomach. A glass of water one hour before meals can hinder digestion and secretion and promote appetite.
8. Sleep.
The "biological clock" of the human body has a low tide at 22-23, so the best time to sleep should be 2 1-22.
