Why do you eat pears in spring?

Sting is one of the twenty-four solar terms, which is called sting when the sun runs to 345 degrees of the yellow meridian every year. After the shock, everything recovers. This is the spring season, but it is also the time when all kinds of viruses and bacteria are active. Health preservation should conform to the characteristics of yang rising and everything starting. So, what should we pay attention to in health care during shock season? Let's take a look with Bian Xiao.

1, diet

Don't eat cold food: Because of the low temperature in the fright season and the large temperature difference between morning and evening, this solar term is still not suitable for eating cold food. It is best to eat warm food or normal temperature food at the entrance.

Eat more light foods rich in plant protein and vitamins: during shock, the weather is obviously warmer, and the diet should be mild. It is necessary to conform to the nature of the liver, help the temper, and make the five internal organs calm. It is advisable to eat more light foods and fresh vegetables rich in protein and vitamins, such as bamboo shoots, spinach, celery, chicken, eggs, milk, duck blood, aloe, radish, bitter gourd, fungus, rape, yam, lotus seeds, tremella and other foods.

Eat more pears: the shock season is warm and cold, and the climate is relatively dry, which is easy to make people thirsty and cough due to exogenous factors. Raw pears are cold and sweet, and have the effects of moistening the lungs and relieving cough, nourishing yin and clearing heat. There is a folk custom of eating pears to win by surprise. Pears can be eaten raw, steamed, squeezed, baked or boiled.

Eat less animal fat food: After being frightened, the weather will obviously get warmer, and light food will help your metabolism. Therefore, it is recommended to eat more crude fiber vegetables such as bamboo shoots and celery, which has a good effect on gastrointestinal peristalsis. Try to eat less greasy food, but also eat less irritating food, such as pepper, onion and garlic, pepper and so on.

2. Sports articles

Exercise should also pay attention to keep warm: the temperature difference between morning and evening is large in the scary season, and it is easy to get sick at first, so exercise should also pay attention to keep warm, especially the joints, so as to keep out the cold.

Go out to exercise after the fog clears: the fog is relatively heavy in the morning during the scary season, which is easy to cause respiratory diseases. Because the temperature in the morning is still generally low, people who want to exercise early had better wait until the sun is high and the temperature rises before going out to exercise.

Early to bed and early to rise: It is helpful to develop the habit of early to bed and early to rise during the period of fright. Washing with warm water after getting up can make people more energetic, which is also a way to avoid "spring sleep".

Exercise intensity should be moderate: since winter has just passed and you haven't exercised for a long time, you should start exercising moderately. Don't ask for your own amount of exercise at once, just gradually increase it.

3, disease prevention

Anti-arthritis: Osteoarthritis of knee joint is caused by wind, cold and dampness invading the meridians on the muscle surface of human body, which makes qi and blood run poorly. If there is "cold in late spring", people with knee arthritis will feel more sore. Such people can generally wear knee pads or smoke their knees with moxa sticks.

Cold protection: I was shocked to see "Spring thunder, everything grows". At this time, the temperature rises rapidly and the spring is getting stronger, but there is still cold air going south from time to time, which may lead to "cold spring". Therefore, at this time, people should pay more attention to keep warm, change clothes at any time according to the weather changes, and put on shawls in the morning and evening to avoid the invasion of cold and dampness and prevent colds.

Allergy prevention: If you want to go for an outing, you should pay attention to prevent pollen allergy. People who are allergic to pollen should know what flowers they are allergic to and take the initiative to avoid allergens.

Prevention of gastrointestinal diseases: "Spring thunder surprises thousands of insects." After the shock, everything recovers and spring blossoms, which is also the season when all kinds of viruses and bacteria are active. People should pay more attention to protecting "stomach" and "intestine" to prevent gastrointestinal diseases. It is best not to eat overnight food. If there is any overnight food, it should be thoroughly heated before eating. Some medicines for gastrointestinal diseases should be prepared at home.

Epidemic prevention: After the shock, it is also the season of epidemic diseases, such as influenza, meningitis, chickenpox, herpes zoster, hepatitis A and so on. At this time, it is best to eat moderately, pay attention to family and personal hygiene, wash your hands frequently and open more windows. Sick people, especially children, had better not go to crowded places.

Recurrence of old diseases: old diseases refer to sprains, contusions, falls and postoperative soft tissue injuries caused by various reasons. During this period, the climate is changeable, which causes blood circulation, oppression and stimulation to damaged tissues, and the meridians are not running smoothly. "If they don't run, they will hurt." The preventive methods are moderate combination of motion and static, taking part in proper exercise, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and dredging meridians.
