2. Don't take supplements blindly
Winter tonic is a Xi that has existed since ancient times, this is because the winter weather is cold, people's immunity will also be reduced, the human body needs a steady stream of energy to resist the cold, so the diet will be based on high-calorie ingredients, resulting in the wrong idea of what to eat on what to supplement.

Because everyone's body constitution is different, the nutrients needed are also different, and blind tonic will only break the balance of body nutrition and bring greater disadvantage.
1 taboo
Don't move to a new home
In the traditional concept, Xiaohan is the coldest time of the year, and it is also the time when the yin qi is at its peak.
Having said that, moving to a new home means changing to a new environment, and it often takes a process for people to adapt to a new environment, so moving to a new home does not have a sense of security, and a home needs the gathering of popularity to have the taste of home, and most people are reluctant to go out in winter, so moving to a new home at this time will feel cold at home.
