Today is the summer solstice, it is the rainy season, and the weather is hot and humid. This climate characteristics are easy to make people feel bored, and there will be physical problems such as fatigue, sweating, laziness, drowsiness and loss of appetite.
【Dietary Adjustment】
Chinese medicine believes that damp heat invades internally, trapping the spleen and stomach, so there will be problems such as physical distress and poor appetite, the summer heat is evil, forced to leak out, and the qi is also leaked out with The jin, so the body lacks dry mouth. Therefore, during the summer solstice, the diet should be light, not greasy. People can improve drowsiness and increase appetite and appetite by eating some spleen appetizers, removing moisture, relieving summer heat, and increasing qi and increasing liquid, and play a role in preventing and treating heat stroke.
For example: it is recommended to eat Ume soup, mung bean barley porridge, etc.; Eat cold drinks appropriately to relieve the heat and boredom, but not excessively, so as not to cause gastrointestinal discomfort. Drink more water and eat more fruits and melons to replenish the water lost by the body.
【Living and Living】
During the summer solstice, health care should follow the principle of "spring and summer yang", and take care of the yang of the human body, especially for those who are weak and cold. In the summer, people need to conform to the natural law of yang dissipation, so that they can go to bed late and get up early. Daily warm water bathing, sleep should not open the fan to supply air, air-conditioned room indoor and outdoor temperature difference should not be too large, not to mention the cold sleep. At the same time, pay attention to avoid direct sunlight to prevent heat stroke. For people with a weak constitution, moxibustion can be used to promote yang qi and remove cold qi.
【Exercise Recuperation】
Summer weather is hot, physical exercise is best to choose in the early morning or evening when the weather is cooler, the venue should choose in the river and lake waterside, park courtyard and other fresh air places, people with conditions can go to the forest, coastal areas to recuperate, vacation. Exercise should not be too intense, the project is walking, jogging, tai chi, radio exercises as well. If the exercise is too extreme, it can lead to sweating and sweating too much, which not only hurts the yin qi, but also damages the yang qi.
