In spring, the physiological changes in the human body mainly include increased blood and gas activity, vigorous metabolism, and the gradual strengthening of the liver's function of storing and dispersing blood, leading to increased mental activity. So, after the beginning of spring, health preservation should focus on nourishing the liver. In spring, we should nourish the liver and eat more three dishes and one Congee! Why is it necessary to nourish the liver even though it can relieve diarrhea? Traditional Chinese medicine explains that there is a saying in ancient times that if it is full, it will be damaged; if it is lacking, it will be surplus. Just like plants shedding their leaves in autumn and winter, they collect nutrients and sprout in spring. Through the accumulation of energy in autumn freezing, people's muscles begin to function in spring and summer, and the body must start releasing energy. The role of the liver in the five organs is precisely to mainly disperse and release, so in spring, the overall principle must be to nourish the liver.
Staying up late and getting up early is the first step in preventing mental and foot diseases.Spring health preservation advocates staying up late and getting up early. Early spring sleep should follow the principle of staying up late and getting up early, and staying up with the day. Why do you stay up late and wake up early? Medical experts believe that even if you sleep at night, you must go to bed before 11pm. In the morning, you can wake up earlier than in winter, take a walk outdoors, and relax your body. It's best to open windows for ventilation in spring to release indoor polluted air. The climate in spring is characterized by prevailing winds. In early spring, it is mainly caused by wind cold pathogenic qi, while in late spring, it is caused by wind warm pathogenic qi. Therefore, spring falls ill due to wind pathogens. Why? The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon says: The wind is the beginning of all diseases. ”Because other types of evil qi invade the human body through the influence of wind, such as cold evil, heat evil, dampness evil, etc. Especially in the spring season, wind evil can enter the human body by invading the body surface and opening pores, especially attacking areas where yang energy accumulates, such as the back, head, upper limbs, etc. If wind pathogens run onto the surface of the human body, they can cause problems such as hives, rashes, and skin itching. If they run onto the head, they can cause headaches and fatigue all day long. If they run onto the joints, they can cause joint pain, and if they run into the muscles, they can cause muscle soreness, and so on. So, many people feel heavy and weak in their legs during spring, and that's why. Experts remind that in early spring, especially during the transition from warm to cold, it is best not to reduce clothing too early, and still pay attention to keeping warm and windproof. This is what the ancients called 'spring is frozen in autumn'.
Spring anger can harm the liver for no more than 3 minutes
The speed of yang qi generation in spring begins to increase compared to yin qi, and liver yang and liver fire are also on the rise, requiring appropriate release. The liver likes to relieve stress and dislikes depression. Being angry can easily lead to a lack of qi and blood in the liver, causing various liver diseases. It is natural for anger to harm the liver. After entering spring, maintaining a relaxed mood can allow the liver fire to flow smoothly. If one frequently loses their temper, especially in a fit of rage, it can cause fluctuations in liver function, exacerbating the fire and adding fuel to the fire, ultimately damaging the liver. So spring must be calm and optimistic. When you get angry, you should learn to be angry, and don't be angry for more than 3 minutes. Spring is the time to warm up and nourish the liver. In spring, it is advisable to eat some spicy and sweet foods instead of sour and astringent ones. At the beginning of spring, the winter atmosphere has not ended. In terms of dietary therapy, it is advocated to focus on ascending while also nourishing and protecting the liver. In spring, due to the abundance of yang energy on the body surface and insufficient yang energy in the body, yang energy has just begun to emerge. At the same time, the liver qi is relatively strong and the spleen and stomach function is slightly weak, so some foods that warm and tonify kidney yang can be consumed. In addition, in the cold early spring, it is appropriate to eat more foods such as burdock, potato roots, carrots, taro, potatoes, vegetables, etc., but people with yin deficiency and fire should not eat the above foods. Spring is the beginning of the growth of all things. When the sun grows, people who are prone to colds, have a history of asthma, have weak constitutions due to winter illnesses, middle-aged and elderly people, etc. should eat more light vegetables, beans, soy products, etc., and supplement with ginseng and Tremella products, Huangqi Shengmai drinks, etc. appropriately to avoid spicy, greasy, and cold foods, which can help regulate the central nervous system and endocrine system, improve immune function and resistance.
