Four-season health preservation 1. In spring, the yang promotes hair growth and nourishes the liver.

Keeping in good health in spring must conform to the characteristics of the sun's spirit and the beginning of everything in spring, and pay attention to protecting the sun's spirit to make it constantly abundant and vigorous.

Spring is the vigorous season of liver function, and it is easy to be affected by the evil of wind and cold, which leads to diseases. Injury of the liver's yang will lead to stagnation of heart fire, and cold lesions will easily occur in summer.

Four seasons health four, winter Yang qi closes up and nourishes the kidney.

The way to preserve one's health in winter should focus on the word "hiding" to save energy and prepare for the outbreak of vitality in spring. In winter, the metabolism level of human body is relatively low due to the yang being closed, so it is necessary to rely on the kidney, the motive force of life, to ensure that life activities adapt to the changes in nature.

Winter is the best season for nourishing. Nourishing in winter is to make the body get enough nutrients and calories to better resist the cold. Maintaining the body's yin qi will become the material basis for disease prevention in the coming spring. In winter, we should supplement grains containing minerals such as protein, fat, potassium, calcium, phosphorus and iron, and vitamins B 1 and B2, which can replenish yang and nourish blood. In winter, glutinous rice, black beans, yam, pumpkin and other grains should be selected.

Chinese medicine believes that winter diet should be based on less salty and more bitter. This is because winter is the season when the kidney meridian is vigorous, while the kidney dominates salty and the heart dominates bitter. From the perspective of the theory of inaction in traditional Chinese medicine, salty wins bitter, and kidney water overcomes heart fire. If you eat too much salty taste, it will make the kidney water that is already too strong more strong, thus weakening the strength of the heart yang, so you should eat more bitter food.
