The times are progressing. With the rapid development of society, people's quality of life is also improving rapidly. Chicken, duck and fish are no longer luxuries. When family conditions are good, people will pay attention to health, but how to keep healthy? What is the best to eat and do? Let's take a look at the health secrets of the autumnal equinox.

? 1. Diet: It is mainly an autumn rain and a cold rain. After the autumnal equinox, the temperature dropped sharply and the climate was dry. Many people will inevitably have dry nose, dry throat, itchy throat, dry skin, respiratory diseases, autumn diarrhea and other problems. Pay special attention to prevent autumn dryness in diet. During the autumnal equinox, it is important to provide enough water. This kind of hydration should be comprehensive, including normal drinking water and moisturizing the skin. In short, from head to toe, try to make your body feel moist and comfortable. Here, I want to remind you that the so-called autumnal equinox and white deer are different. Speaking of the dryness of the autumnal equinox, it is cool and dry, while the Millennium is warm and dry. Therefore, we must eat some moist food, such as sesame, glutinous rice and walnuts. There are many kinds of fruits and vegetables in the autumn market, including lotus root, water chestnut, sugarcane, autumn pear, citrus, hawthorn, apple, grape, lily, tremella, persimmon, sesame and honey. Fresh pears and radishes in the autumnal equinox have the function of promoting qi circulation and can reach all parts of the human body to moisten dryness. Pears cooked as much as possible can nourish the yin of the internal organs. Autumn dryness is easy to hurt the large intestine, so constipation and hemorrhoids often occur. At this time, you should eat more plantains, bananas, sesame seeds, walnuts and Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. In addition, remember that "autumn melons are bad." Watermelon is a good product for clearing away heat and relieving summer heat in summer, but after beginning of autumn, you should not eat more watermelon, cantaloupe or cauliflower, otherwise it will hurt the spleen and stomach yang. ? Traditional Chinese medicine health experts also advocate eating porridge every morning during the six solar terms in autumn. For example, in the Ming Dynasty, Li Ting thought that "eating porridge early, bringing forth the old and bringing forth the new, benefiting the stomach and promoting fluid production, makes people feel refreshed and make up for it." ? 。” ? Qian Jin Fang said that bean sprouts should not be eaten in the autumn equinox. At this time, bean sprouts will hurt people's nerves and cause asthma. During the autumnal equinox, you should not eat more ginger and raw garlic. Egg yolk moon cakes, bean sprouts, fresh ginger, raw garlic, lungs, pheasants, pork belly, celery and crabs are best eaten less or not.

2. Life: Go to bed early and get up early. After the autumnal equinox, the climate gets cold, and the gastrointestinal tract is very sensitive to cold stimulation. If it is not properly protected, it will lead to acid reflux, abdominal distension, diarrhea, abdominal pain and other gastrointestinal diseases. Or aggravate the original stomach trouble. Therefore, people with chronic gastritis should pay special attention to keep their stomachs warm, add clothes in time, and cover themselves when sleeping at night. Don't add too much or too fast clothes, so that the human body has the ability to resist the cold. This is the so-called "spring is covered with autumn frost". Children and the elderly are physically weak. Unlike young people, they are more sensitive to the cold. Pay special attention to changing clothes in autumn. Wear more clothes in the morning and evening to avoid catching cold. Pay special attention to keep your feet warm, and don't let your feet stay in summer-wearing sandals barefoot is easy to catch a cold, causing gastrointestinal discomfort and even catching a cold. Besides warming your feet during the day, it is also good to come back in the evening and soak in hot water for a while. In autumn, it is especially important to form a good habit of going to bed early and getting up early. Even 1 minutes earlier than before is progress. Especially female friends, we should pay more attention to going to bed early and getting up early. The deeper the night, the heavier the cold, and the cold can easily invade the body, laying a hidden danger for the soreness of the lower back and legs, and causing diseases such as cough. Chinese medicine believes that lying on your side and bending your knees can keep the essence. Longevity old people usually sleep on their side. And lie more on the right bow. Just as the ancients said: "Lying like a bow". The correct sleeping position is to put one elbow in front of the pillow, the other hand on the thigh, lie on the right side, slightly bend your legs and relax your whole body. In this way, the spine naturally forms an arch, the limbs move easily, the muscles of the whole body are fully relaxed, the chest is less compressed, and snoring is not easy. It should be pointed out that the choice of sleeping position in autumn also varies from person to person. For example, patients with some diseases are not suitable for lying on the right side. For patients with heart failure, semi-recumbent position should be adopted. Lying on the side of patients with cerebral thrombosis will increase blood flow disorder and easily lead to thrombosis recurrence, so it is advisable to lie on your back. For patients with gastric ulcer, lying on the right side will greatly increase the reflux of acidic liquid from the stomach to the esophagus, causing heartburn, and it is best to lie on the left side. Patients with hypertension should lie on their backs with pillows, which are generally about 15 cm high. Patients with emphysema should lie on their backs with their heads slightly raised and their hands slightly extended upward to keep breathing smoothly. Lung governs qi, which is closely related to breathing. Deep breathing in autumn helps to restore the lungs. You can lie flat in bed or get up in the morning before going to bed every day, practice abdominal breathing, take a deep breath, expand your abdomen, pause for a few seconds, then exhale through your nostrils and contract your abdomen, and repeat it 2 ~ 3 times.
