Common sense of snow and solar terms
thermal insulation
After the solar term of heavy snow, large-scale cooling and snowfall began to appear in northern China. Some diseases have a lot to do with not paying attention to keeping warm. Chinese medicine believes that the head, chest and feet of the human body are the most vulnerable parts to cold evil. As the saying goes, "cold starts from the foot", the foot is farthest from the heart, and the blood supply is slow and little. The subcutaneous fat is thin and the warmth retention is poor. Once it is cold, it will reflexively cause the capillary contraction of respiratory mucosa, which will reduce the disease resistance and lead to upper respiratory tract infection. Therefore, foot warmth in severe cold should be strengthened in particular.
Comprehensive aftercare
The diet of heavy snow and solar terms should be nutritious, and daily life should be comfortable and quiet. Drugs should also be supplemented appropriately. Although food supplement, medicine supplement and rest are all within the scope of health preservation, they are harmful to the health if used too much. Just like some people who eat too much will be overnourished, too much rest and not working will lead to dynamic and static imbalance, and too much medicine will lead to yin and yang imbalance. Therefore, we should adopt the combination of dynamic and static, the combination of rest and rest, the combination of supplement and discharge, and the combination of body and mind.
Anti-flow
Influenza A is an acute respiratory infectious disease, and the pathogen is a new type A virus (H 1N 1). People are generally susceptible to influenza A and can infect each other. The symptoms of influenza A are similar to those of ordinary influenza, but it is very harmful. We should take precautions: develop good hygiene habits, pay attention to maintaining our health, ventilate indoors, and wear masks when traveling.
Prevent winter fog
The air quality in winter is worse than other seasons. The smog in winter contains acids, amines, phenols, benzene, pathogenic microorganisms and so on. These toxic substances float in the fog. When they reach a certain concentration, they will stimulate some sensitive parts of the human body, causing tracheitis, laryngitis, conjunctivitis and some allergic diseases, which may be life-threatening to the elderly and the weak. Therefore, people who have the habit of doing morning exercises should do more indoor activities in foggy weather. Wear masks, gloves and protective clothing when going out to prevent toxic substances and pathogenic microorganisms from invading the mouth and skin. Wash your hands and face when you get home.
