During the year, cold comes and summer goes, and colds are common. Because "cold" belongs to "yin" and is also an inanimate attribute.
"Everything grows on the sun", and our health mainly depends on the warmth of the sun, which is the key to vitality and strength.

All diseases begin with cold?
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the body is in a state of balance between yin and yang, which can prove the health in the body. The invasion of cold will easily disturb this balance.
Yang in the body will be damaged in the process of fighting it. The colder the body, the worse the physical quality, and the higher the risk of illness.
In fact, this sentence originated from Huangdi Neijing, and there is such a record: "I know that all diseases are born of qi", in which "qi" refers to cold.
Zhang Zhongjing, a medical sage, gave relevant explanations in his medical work Treatise on Febrile Diseases, affirming the relationship between coldness and physical diseases. Generally, the causes of many diseases are attributed to cold, so it can be seen that this sentence is correct.
02
A cold is not just a cold.
When it comes to colds, everyone may think of them. In fact, this is only part of the symptoms caused by external cold. When the body is attacked by the external cold or its own warm-keeping measures are not in place, it will be easily affected by the cold and make the body feel uncomfortable.
It can also be called typhoid fever, but in addition to typhoid fever, internal cold will hurt the body more slowly, and the damage should not be underestimated. Many chronic diseases are related to internal cold.
Part of the internal cold is because the external cold enters the body and is not excreted in time, while part of the internal cold comes from our diet. At the same time, under the problem of insufficient yang in organs such as the body, it will also produce some yang itself.
Therefore, if the cold of the body is not dispelled in time, it will easily lead to getting colder and colder, and the internal cold in the human body will further damage and destroy various organs and tissues, which will easily increase the risk of diseases.
03
What factors can lead to cold constitution?
Pay no attention to diet
If you don't develop good eating habits at ordinary times and eat some cold food, it will easily damage the spleen and stomach after a long time, and the cold will come from the inside.
Invasion of cold pathogen
This problem mainly occurs in people who live in cold areas for a long time, because living in cold areas for a long time, whether the skin surface or internal organs, will be attacked by cold.
At this time, the yang will weaken, which will actually affect the activity function in the human body, and it is also prone to internal cold symptoms.
Age factor
When people reach a certain age, the functions of various parts of the body will also decline. At this time, people are easy to catch cold when they are old.
04
People with cold in their bodies may have four kinds of discomfort.
The symptoms of discomfort caused by cold invading all parts of the body are different:
Cold liver-pain.
Perhaps we have all heard of the problem of excessive liver fire, but few people have heard of liver cold. If the liver gets cold, things will get a little serious.
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the liver is the main muscle, and the cold in the liver has the greatest influence, that is, the tendon.
For example, the common joint pain, in fact, the pain is not the bone, but the tendon. In addition, the meridians running through the liver can also have certain effects, such as abdominal pain and stomachache.
There is cold in the lungs-the nose is clear.
Lung has the title of "the official of the prime minister", which is equivalent to the prime minister in ancient times, specially assisting the monarch, and the monarch is our heart.
In addition, the lungs are full of hair, the orifices are the nose, the ambition is the worry, and the fluid is the tears.
If there is cold in the lungs, people tend to have a runny nose. If there is a problem, such people are not easy to sweat, but the problem of coughing at night is more serious. Daily life is always boring and they always want to lie down.
Cold spleen-you look pale.
The spleen itself is a major transport organ. If the spleen is attacked by cold, its main function, that is, transport and transformation, will be hindered to some extent.
In this way, the function of the spleen will be affected, causing certain problems in people's digestion.
It will get wet after a long time, which will make people look bad. Not only will you be listless, but you will always drool when you sleep. They are always dry, and drinking water can't quench their thirst.
Cold in the heart-chest tightness
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the heart governs the heart pulse, and the heart is the organ most afraid of cold. Once the heart is attacked by cold, the blood vessels in the body will be hindered to a certain extent, and those who are light will grow spots, and there will be problems such as pale face, chest tightness and fear of cold.
For some friends who have heart problems themselves, it is more important to pay attention to chilling.
If patients with cardiovascular diseases are stimulated by cold, blood vessel obstruction will easily lead to cardiac ischemia, which will not only lead to angina pectoris, but also lead to myocardial infarction.

Three methods of dispelling cold and strengthening yang
Eat more warm food properly.
If you want to drive away cold and nourish yang, you should also pay attention to adjustment in your diet. Usually, warm food is the main food, even drinking water should also drink more warm water and warm drinks.
Try to choose hot food in the choice of food, don't eat some cold or cold food, especially in autumn and winter, don't covet temporary appetite.
by oneself
Proper exercise can not only enhance the blood circulation of the whole body, but also accelerate the metabolic efficiency of the whole body, help to enhance immunity and resistance, and help everyone to drive away cold and strengthen yang.
In the process of exercise, the whole body's blood is mobilized, which is helpful to dispel cold and tonify yang and bring benefits to health.
Keep warm.
In daily life, everyone must take good measures to keep warm. Not only should we consider environmental factors when dressing, but we should also dry our bodies and hair before going to bed after taking a shower.
Pay attention to rubbing your abdomen to keep warm after work to better drive away cold and warm yang.
Conclusion: Generally speaking, the sentence "All diseases are caused by cold" is indeed correct, and the influence of cold pathogen on the body should not be underestimated. I hope everyone can pay attention to it, learn to drive away cold and warm yang reasonably, and keep the body yang, which will be more conducive to health.
