Heavy snow and solar terms make up for winter.

Lai Yigui, director of the Department of Chinese Medicine of the Municipal People's Hospital: It's very important for us to raise the sun's spirit by going to bed early and getting up late in the snowy solar terms. Don't lose your temper often, because losing your temper is also a process of consuming gas and hurting yang.

In the meantime, our bodies also store energy for the coming year. As the saying goes, "winter supplements spring to kill tigers" is a good time for tonic, but some people regard "tonic" as "tonic", thus forming the wrong concept that food must be supplemented.

Lai Yigui, director of the Chinese Medicine Department of the Municipal People's Hospital: Nourishing Yin in autumn and winter is based on eating something warm in autumn and winter, so don't overdo it. Eating too much will hurt the body's yin. In our daily life, we can eat more sheep, cows, dogs, pork and beef.

Snow and solar terms, everything is hidden, and exercise and health preservation should also conform to the laws of nature, and it is not appropriate to do too intense exercise.

Lai Yigui, director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of the Municipal People's Hospital: I think proper exercise should be mainly moderate micro-exercise, not too strenuous exercise, because too strenuous exercise will disturb the yang of the human body, and the yang will be damaged before it grows, which is not conducive to the growth of yang in spring, so I think indoor exercise and moderate exercise should be the main exercise in winter.
