(4) The living environment should be well ventilated.

Second, diet and health.

In the snow season, the ground is cold and the weather is cold. Because of the cold weather, the human body must increase the decomposition of carbohydrates, fats and protein, so as to generate more energy to meet the needs of the body. Therefore, you can eat more foods rich in sugar, fat, protein and vitamins in winter to supplement the energy consumed in cold weather, replenish qi and blood and nourish your body.

Heavy snow and solar terms, cold wind can easily bring cold to the body through the neck, thus causing sore throat and inflammation. Especially for people with poor cervical spine, it is very important to wear high-necked clothes and scarves when going out in winter.

Because the elderly are weak and afraid of cold, they like to wear more clothes when sleeping in winter, but this is not good for their health. Because people's central nervous system activity slows down during sleep, the number of heartbeats decreases, and muscle tension weakens.

Wearing thick clothes to sleep will hinder the normal "breathing" of the skin and the evaporation of sweat, and you will feel cold. Wear more clothes and sleep, it will get colder and colder.
