introduction
It is another year of winter solstice, this month is naturally known as the "winter moon", the Xi of eating dumplings on the winter solstice has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but many people simply do not know how to spend the winter moon or even understand what the winter moon is.
In ancient times, the winter moon was a rare time to rest in a year, because there is a saying that "after Laba is the year", so the month is basically preparing for the upcoming New Year.
During the cold moon, most families are preparing for the coming cold winter, and only in the winter moon, most families can enjoy a rare vacation, so the importance of the winter moon is self-evident.
As one of the coldest three months of the year, the winter moon can have a lot of attention, especially for the middle-aged and elderly people with slightly weaker immunity, how to spend the winter moon safely is what everyone should care about.
What is the value of "one not out, two not doing, and three eating less" mentioned above? Is there a scientific basis?
1 Failure
Nowadays we have too much heating equipment, and if you don't go out, you can even feel the summer weather at home, even if you go out extremely warm clothes can greatly protect the body temperature.
But in ancient times, people had almost no means of heating except for the fire, so for the winter, the ancients put forward the saying of winter storage, in order to maintain their bodies as much as possible.
Nowadays, this sentence is also applicable, and it is not necessary to try not to go out, or try not to go out when the weather is bad, young people are fine, and the cold wind is very dangerous for the elderly and middle-aged people.
Nowadays, with the better and better conditions, many elderly people have begun to pay attention to their bodies and health regimens, the most important of which is to insist on exercising or walking every day.
This approach is certainly right, but it becomes inapplicable in the winter months, most of the middle-aged and elderly people will choose to exercise in the morning or even when the sun is not rising, at this time not only the air is good, but also people often say that the plan of the day lies in the morning.
This makes many elderly people develop the Xi of exercising during this time period, but in the winter months, under the huge temperature difference between day and night, the morning is no longer suitable for exercise.
The heat accumulated after sleeping at night will be consumed after going out in the morning, and the cold weather is very easy to irritate the mouth and nose and cause colds.
Exercising is the same as sweating, and it is easy to catch a cold in winter, and it is easier to catch a cold after the heat is expelled from the body, not only in the morning, but also during the day.
This year is the coldest winter in recent years, and the weather in the north can be called extremely bad weather, which is more suitable for winter storage.
It is the right decision to take a good rest and recuperate in the winter month to prepare for the next Spring Festival and the next year's work.
Of course, if you are still busy with work, you can't rest at home all the time, but you should also pay attention to your own health feedback after work, after all, physical health is the first place.
2. Do not do
After that, don't do anything, for the able-bodied young people, the winter is nothing, but for the already weak elderly, there are some taboos to help them is good.
Don't sit: sit soon or lie in the house for a long time, many elderly people think they are old when they get older, often sit on a chair or lie on the bed, a lie is a whole day, and some people even think that this can delay the aging of the body.
Is this practice true? Naturally not, the human body is like a machine, although the daily activities in the use of the machine will make it age, but the same will give the machine "lubricating oil", as long as it is not too tiring work is good for the body.
This is why people always say that exercise is the source of life, and proper exercise can completely alleviate the aging of the body, but doing nothing is more likely to cause the body to get worse and worse.
I believe that most people have been hospitalized in the hospital because of major or minor diseases, and they should also understand that the longer they live, the weaker their bodies become, which is the result of not exercising for a long time.
Although you can't get up early to exercise after entering the winter moon, you can't lie still in bed, go out for a walk during the day when the weather is a little warmer, and if you really don't want to go out, you can also walk around at home.
As the saying goes, "Take a walk after dinner and live to ninety-nine" is just a proverb, but there is still some truth to it.
The second point is to pay attention, physical health is important, but it is also a good choice to relax your nerves properly, after entering the winter, dry and cold weather will make most people irritable.
At this time, it is more necessary to meditate, "introverted tranquility" is the core of winter moon health, and today it also has a scientific basis, the liver as a large metabolic organ of the human body, its importance is self-evident.
As the name suggests, anger is directly linked to the liver, if a person is in an angry or depressed mood every day, then his liver must be bad, and "liver qi stagnation" is like this.
Therefore, after entering the winter moon, we must pay attention not only to the physical recuperation, but more importantly, the balance of mentality.
With the development of medical technology, people's mental health has been paid more and more attention, in the past, some people sighed all day long, others may say that the person either has a heart disease or is abnormal, but now these symptoms can be scientifically explained and even treated.
In addition, in the dry season of winter, most people will have more or less liver fire, at this time, you need to meditate, be optimistic about your own affairs, and don't care about what others do and how they look.
Adjust yourself to an excellent state, at this time, you can also cleanse your liver by eating supplements, eat more light foods, such as black rice, mutton, etc., and refuse greasy foods.
Under the dual mediation of mentality and food, I believe that most people can spend the winter happily and recharge their energy to make excellent progress in the coming year.
3. Eat less
Since the above mentioned dietary therapy, there are recommendations to eat, and there are naturally those that are not recommended to eat, the first is seafood, and most seafood lovers eat seafood regardless of season.
Even in the cold winter, they can't stop their passion for seafood, but this approach is absolutely wrong, the first point: seafood is a cold food, and eating it in the stomach is a burden on the stomach.
Coupled with its high protein characteristics, eating seafood in winter is very easy to gain weight and easily cause various problems of gastrointestinal hypothermia, plus the digestive system of middle-aged and elderly people is actually not very good.
If these high protein accumulations in the body, it can lead to all kinds of problems, so no matter how much you love to eat it, try to avoid seafood in winter.
The second is spicy and stimulating food, as we said above, everyone is prone to liver fire in the winter moon, and the stomach fire is also very strong at this time.
At this time, eating those spicy foods will definitely drive the stomach fire, whether it is stomach fire or liver fire, if it is too vigorous, it will cause different harm to the human body.
The third and most difficult to do is "eat less", no matter what kind of food, eating too much is a huge burden on the elderly, obesity is the biggest enemy of the elderly, once the body is fat, followed by high blood pressure, high blood sugar and other diseases.
These are unbearable pains for middle-aged and elderly people, in addition to these three, we must also keep in mind the truth of scientific diet, no matter what is delicious and expensive, do not be greedy, only in this way can we ensure that there is nothing wrong with good health.
The above is the explanation of one not out, two not to do, three not to eat, of course, in life not only these points need to pay attention to, if you want to spend the winter month peacefully, what else do you need to pay attention to?
What to do
First of all, it's a question of whether to exercise or not: Exercise is very important for people of any age, and unless your body no longer supports it, you should be prepared to exercise for life.
Exercising doesn't mean doing some extremely difficult fitness, walking when you're okay is also considered exercise, as long as you don't sit and lie at home all the time.
The second is mental health problems, middle-aged and elderly people should actively integrate into their own families, family is the best medicine, can help them alleviate the "lack of confidence" and "self-perceived backwardness" caused by age.
It is also extremely important for the elderly to stay away from those dangerous places as much as possible, for the elderly with fragile bones, a small fall can cause increased physical problems again.
The so-called middle-aged and elderly people should be protected at this time, and another point is to wear appropriate clothes, the temperature difference between day and night in the winter month is very large, at this time do not care whether it looks good or not, keeping warm is the key.
The last and most important thing is that the family lives in harmony, whether an old man is happy or not has nothing to do with himself or not, and at this time it can only be the family members who can make the old man happy.
If the family is happy, it can make the elderly let go of the knot, and the body will naturally become healthier and healthier at the same time, as we all know, a good attitude is the basis of good health.
epilogue
The winter solstice has arrived, the winter moon is almost halfway through, today is the shortest day and the longest night in a year, after today, the next day will be longer and longer, that is, people often say "cathode to yang".
Next is the busy month of the Spring Festival, this year's winter moon is exceptionally cold, here I also wish everyone good health, health is a complex thing, but also hope that the elderly can have something to gain.
