What is the correct exposition of keeping in good health in four seasons?

The correct discussion of keeping in good health in four seasons is as follows:

1. Treatment of winter diseases in summer: The so-called treatment of winter diseases in summer refers to the fact that the human body and the outside world are full of yang in summer, and some diseases that are easy to occur in winter are treated by oral Chinese medicine combined with acupuncture and other external treatments. Frostbite in winter can be prevented if fresh sesame flowers are used to wipe the places that are prone to frostbite; Applying ointment to acupoints in winter can treat asthma and rhinitis.

2, spleen dehumidification: wet evil is a major evil in summer, coupled with low spleen and stomach function in summer, people often feel bad appetite, easy diarrhea, white and greasy tongue coating and other symptoms, so always take things that strengthen the spleen and promote diuresis. Generally, products with the functions of invigorating spleen, aromatizing and eliminating dampness, lightly infiltrating and promoting diuresis are selected, such as Pogostemon rugosa, lotus seeds and Eupatorium odoratum.

3, clearing away heat and relieving summer heat: the summer temperature is high, the summer heat is evil, and people's heart fire is relatively strong. Therefore, some drugs with the functions of clearing away heat and toxic materials, clearing away heart fire and purging fire are often used, such as chrysanthemum, mint, honeysuckle, forsythia, lotus leaf and so on.

4, nourishing the lungs and kidneys: Chinese medicine believes that according to the law of the five elements, the heart is strong in summer, and the lungs and kidneys are weak, so we should pay attention to nourishing the yin of the lungs and kidneys. You can choose Lycium barbarum, Radix Rehmanniae, Lily, Mulberry, and drugs that use acid to collect lung qi, such as Schisandra chinensis, to prevent excessive sweating and damage body fluid.

Spring regimen:

Spring refers to the period from beginning of spring to long summer, including beginning of spring, rain, sting, vernal equinox, Qingming and Grain Rain. Spring is the first of the four seasons and the beginning of Vientiane's renewal. As Huangdi's Neijing said: March in spring is called Chen, heaven and earth are born, and everything is glorious.

It means that when spring returns to the earth, the ice and snow have melted, the yang in nature begins to rise, everything recovers, and everything in the world is thriving, and people correspond to the earth. At this time, the yang in the human body also conforms to nature and diverges outward.

Therefore, keeping in good health in spring must master the characteristics of qi rising and relaxing in spring, and pay attention to protecting the yang in the body, so as to make it constantly abundant and gradually vigorous. Any situation that damages the yang spirit and hinders it should be avoided. This principle of health preservation should run through diet, exercise, daily life, disease prevention, spirit and other aspects.
