Nourishing the lungs is nourishing life! A little trick teaches you to exercise your lung function for only 10 minutes every day.
The weather is getting colder, especially in the north. Last week, the first snow fell in Beijing, which means that winter is really coming!

Winter can be said to be the most prone to illness among the four seasons. Even from autumn, many people's lung function began to deteriorate, and they coughed when they were not careful. In winter, they coughed for three days and had a fever for two days, and their physique became worse and worse, even causing other diseases.

Why is lung function easily affected? It is very simple, because the weather is getting colder, the air is getting drier, the sunrise is late and the sunset is early, and the air quality is getting worse. The human body is vulnerable to dryness and evil, and the lungs are the most fragile organs, so it is easy to cause lung damage, laying the roots for lung diseases that occur frequently in winter, thus affecting health.

In fact, this point, as early as in ancient China, Chinese medicine practitioners have said: "Raise your life first, raise your lungs, and your lungs will eliminate all diseases"! Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "the lung is delicate and dirty". Once exogenous evils such as wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness and fire invade our skin and nose, the lung is the organ that bears the brunt of the damage.

Especially elderly people, who have injured their lungs, are more likely to get some lung diseases in winter, such as this year's COVID-19 epidemic, which is attacking the lungs of human beings.

The exposed respiratory mucosa is easy to contact with pathogens in the air, and it is attacked, infected and damaged by pathogens. If the human body's own immunity is poor, or pathogens have strong pathogenicity, lower respiratory tract infection may occur, leading to bronchitis, pneumonia and other diseases. This is how COVID-19 infected, so this is the main reason why Academician Zhong Nanshan called on everyone to wear masks and goggles.

Covering the mouth, nose and even eyes can well block pathogens in the air and reduce the infection of diseases.

Many ailments are caused by the lungs. This truth, that is, "nourish the lungs first, and the lungs will eliminate all diseases", is worth remembering and learning.

To sum it up simply: normal lung function, strong physical resistance, not easy to catch a cold, full of energy, moist skin and normal excretion.

When the lung function is weakened, the resistance will also be weakened, and there will be symptoms such as shortness of breath and laziness, general fatigue, spontaneous sweating and fear of the wind, pale complexion, fever in hands and feet, dry mouth and dry throat, and diseases such as colds and poor urination and defecation will easily occur.

Therefore, lung health is very important to us.

There is a little trick, that is, to judge the natural strength of your lung function and decide whether it is easy to get sick.

Let me teach you a very simple way to tell. It's simple. Just take out your thumb and have a look.

Normal thumb (left in the picture above): the thickest of the five fingers, with thick finger roots and slightly thin fingertips, with lustrous color, good elasticity and flexibility.

Abnormal thumb (top right): the thumb is deformed, and the common thumb is enlarged at the distal segment and contracted at the root, which is the lack of lung qi, which is the manifestation of hypoxia in the lung meridian.

You can also test the thumb and stomach to see if the lung qi is sufficient.

As shown above! In this way, after pressing, the recovery speed of the fingertips is slow and the elasticity is poor, which means that the physical strength is seriously overdrawn; Good elasticity, full finger belly means that the lung is full at present.

Today, I will teach you a simple little exercise-chest expansion exercise.

First, take a standing or sitting posture, keep your feet shoulder-width, and then inhale. When your elbows expand your chest backwards, try to expand your chest as much as possible, hold your head up and hold your chest high, and at the same time cooperate with inhaling. When exhaling, straighten your arms at your sides, inhale twice and call once as a group.

Do not exceed 200 groups a day, and the duration is about 5 10 minutes, which is suitable for human comfort and strength.

Anyone is suitable for people to do chest expansion exercise, especially those who work at their desks for a long time, which will easily reduce the elasticity of lung tissue, reduce vital capacity and damage cardiopulmonary function. It is suggested that you can do chest expansion exercise 1-2 times a day to exercise lung function.

Moreover, breast enlargement exercise is more suitable for girls, which can effectively prevent sagging breasts and breast enhancement, and at the same time prevent breast hyperplasia.

Although the chest expansion exercise is simple, its function is not small. This action can dredge the meridians of the lungs, promote blood circulation in the lungs, and discharge impurities from the lungs.

In addition, you can also exercise your heart and lung function through aerobic exercise. Common sports include swimming, mountain climbing, jogging, aerobics, Tai Ji Chuan, Baduanjin, table tennis, etc. These are all good exercises for heart and lung function, but pay attention to the safety during exercise, with moderate intensity as the mainstay, and pay attention to your heart rate during exercise. The normal heart rate calculation formula is: heart rate = 170-.

For example, for a 50-year-old person, it is best to keep the heart rate at 170-50= 120 beats/min.
