Want to know what the cause of spring sleepiness is
Let's demystify the truth behind drowsiness
In winter, the temperature is low, in order to prevent heat dissipation, the blood vessels are in a constricted state, the blood flow of the brain increases, the information to maintain the physiological constant temperature of the body and the excitement of the central nervous system also increases, and the brain is relatively awake. In the spring, the temperature warms up, the blood vessels are in a state of relaxation, the blood flowing into the brain is correspondingly reduced, and the person's energy is reduced, and the phenomenon of drowsiness occurs.
Chinese medicine believes that if people's blood qi is insufficient, they are prone to the symptoms of spring sleepiness, which is mainly due to the fact that the yang qi in the body cannot keep up with the pace of external yang qi rising. Among them, people with weak tempers are particularly susceptible to the "harassment" of spring sleepiness. When the spleen deficiency can not be transported to water wet, water wetness in turn aggravates the symptoms of spleen deficiency, external humidity plus internal wetness, internal and external phases, it aggravates the symptoms of spring sleepiness.
Therefore, if you want to solve the symptoms of spring sleepiness, you may wish to start with a healthy spleen and dampness.
