Old people's twenty-four solar terms health classic

Classic of 24 solar terms for the elderly:

1, heavy snow: There is a proverb in agriculture: "During the winter solstice with heavy snow, we should do a good job in sideline production and accumulate more fertilizers." People are looking forward to seeing the good omen of "abundant snow" in the heavy snow solar terms, which shows that the arrival of the heavy snow solar terms indicates auspiciousness in the coming year.

2. From the perspective of TCM health preservation, the heavy snow is a good season for tonic, that is, it is necessary to achieve the purpose of strengthening the body and prolonging life through comprehensive conditioning such as nourishing the mind, regulating diet, exercising, carefully having sex, and adapting to temperature and coolness.

3, in the process of application, we should pay attention to two points:

(1) Proper parenting: not too much, not too late. If you are too cautious, it will lead to the loss of aftercare and you will be at a loss. Doing a little work is afraid of wasting gas and hurting the spirit. If you have a little difference between cold and heat, you will stay indoors. When eating, I am afraid of being fat, sweet and tired, so I go on a diet and eat less. Too much restraint in this state is not only harmful to the body, but also impossible to "spend the rest of your life safely."

(2) Don't be too partial: some people regard "supplement" as a supplement, so the diet emphasizes nutrition and food must be supplemented; Daily life emphasizes comfort and rest; In addition, it is supplemented by nourishing drugs. Although food supplement, medicine supplement and rest all belong to the category of health preservation, excessive use will affect health. Just like some people eat too much, they will be overnourished, and if they eat too much, they will be restless and restless. If they eat too much medicine, they will rise and fall of yin and yang, which will make the body's metabolism unbalanced and counterproductive. Therefore, we should adopt the methods of combining static and dynamic, combining work and rest, supplementing deficiency and reducing excess, and nourishing body and mind when recuperating.
