What food can I eat in the 24 solar terms to keep out the cold and keep fit?
Lingshu said: "The spiritual cultivation of the wise must be suitable for the four seasons of cold and heat, be in harmony with emotions, and restrain the combination of yin and yang. If he is eccentric and evil, he will live for a long time. " Lu mentioned in the Spring and Autumn Annals: "Natural yin and yang are cold and hot, wet and dry, and everything changes at four seasons, which has advantages and disadvantages. Sages keep the yin and yang, argue the interests of all things, and thus live, so they are safe and live long. "
In other words, conforming to the laws of nature is not a passive adaptation, but a positive attitude. First of all, we must master the laws of natural changes to resist the invasion of external evils. In ancient times, there was a saying that "it's cold, cold, drinking ginseng and astragalus wine early and taking Qiju Dihuang pills late". This is a summary of working people's life, and it also shows people's attention to physical aftercare, so as to save the solar terms and rewrite the method of lady aftercare.
"Su Wen Gu Tian Lun" says: "The woman is seven years old, full of kidney qi and has longer teeth; On the 27 th, when the sky comes, the pulse is too strong, and the moon is in the present, so there is a son; Sanqi kidney qi is general, so real teeth are born and long; Four or seven strong bones and muscles, extremely long hair and strong body; On may 7, Yangming's pulse failed, his face began to burn and his hair began to fall; The 673 Yang pulse decays in the upper part, the face is burnt, and the hair begins to turn white; On July 7, the pulse was weak, the pulse was too weak, the sky was exhausted, and the tunnel was impassable, so the shape was bad and there were no children. "
The scripture expounds the law of women's growth, development and aging, and recognizes the important role of kidney qi and Tiangui in the process of sexual maturity and sexual decline. At the same time, predecessors believed that women's special physiological characteristics, such as menstruation, pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, etc., are closely related to blood. "Women's School Note" said: "Blood is the essence, and it also harmonizes the five internal organs, distributes the old and six internal organs, transforms essence into men, transforms milk into women, and transforms blood into the lower body."
It can be seen that women's "blood-based, blood-based" is not unreasonable. Blood filling mainly depends on the vigorous functions of liver, spleen and kidney. The liver is the viscera of blood, the spleen is the source of blood, and the kidney is the foundation of congenital, vitality and essence. Essence can produce blood, blood can transform into essence, and essence and blood are homologous, which is the "foundation of menstruation". Sufficient essence and blood will make menstruation, pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding normal.
Another feature of women is that their emotions are easy to fluctuate. Whenever they think, love, hate, love, envy and worry, they often can't control their emotions. In the "Annotation Prescription for Girls' Schools", it is pointed out: "Thinking too much will lead to greater strain. You feel sad when you are worried and thinking, but your blood is exhausted, your face is separated, and your menstruation is closed first. ..... all the five internal organs are injured, and you will die. If they can change their minds and support them with drugs, they can live. " This shows that emotional factors have a great influence on women.
I would like to warn you that you should keep a good mood during "premenstrual period" and "menstrual period" to avoid excessive emotions. Otherwise, it will lead to dysfunction of zang-fu organs, disorder of qi and blood circulation, aggravation of "menstrual period" discomfort, and lead to symptoms such as menstrual disorder and amenorrhea. In addition, proper menstrual activities are conducive to smooth blood flow.
The physiological function of menopausal women (entering menopause at the age of 45-50) changes from exuberance to decline or even loss. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, due to the gradual decline of kidney qi and the failure of two meridians, yin and yang are out of balance, and symptoms such as dizziness, tinnitus, palpitation and insomnia, irritability or depression and anxiety, menstrual disorder, fever and hyperhidrosis appear, and the severity varies from person to person.
If properly adjusted, symptoms can be avoided or alleviated, and reaction time can be shortened. Therefore, how to correctly understand one's own physiological changes, reduce unnecessary psychological burden, eliminate psychological obstacles such as nervousness, fear and negative anxiety, avoid bad mental stimulation, choose appropriate ways to cultivate feelings according to one's personality and hobbies, and remain optimistic is the key to safe menopause. This is also the reason why doctors in past dynasties put forward the viewpoint of "soothing the liver to relieve depression and regulating qi" for women's health care.
The focus of diet conditioning in female health care should be to protect spleen and kidney and regulate liver and blood.

Great cold solar terms health mainly includes the following five aspects:
1. Life and nursing
Chinese medicine points out that "life is regular, save your strength, get something for nothing, save your strength". If you can arrange your daily life and rest reasonably in winter, you can maintain your spirit, and moderate work and rest can nourish kidney essence. Try to "walk without haste, listen, stare, sit short, lie tireless".
A good sleep during the winter solstice is important for health. Besides sleeping at night, you can take a nap after lunch, but you should avoid catching cold when sleeping. Secondly, we should pay attention to the cold. Third, the winter solar terms should be basked in the sun during the day, which is conducive to the growth of yang.
Focus on nourishing the heart
Keep healthy in winter, be calm and worry less, keep open and optimistic, don't worry about trifles, don't force fame and fortune, and suffer from loss; Avoid long-term "overload operation" and prevent overwork and break down from overwork.
Help each other with drugs
It is the best time for the human body to recharge its batteries when the winter climate is getting colder and the sun is shining in the sky. In winter, people not only pay attention to health preservation in daily life, but also pay attention to winter tonic of diet and medicine.
Tonifying in winter is a traditional health preserving method in China. There is a folk saying that "three seasons make up a winter, and there will be no disease in the coming year; It is said that if the winter season is made up this year, the tiger can be killed next year. After the winter solstice, the yang in the human body will be strong, and it is easiest to absorb foreign nutrition and play a nourishing role.
pay attention to the diet
As the saying goes, medicine is better than food. In winter, if you can choose delicious and healthy food properly, it will undoubtedly be accepted by everyone.
Chinese medicine believes that warming foods, such as chicken, mutton, beef, crucian carp and so on. It is the first choice for healthy eating in winter; Secondly, you can choose flat foods, such as lotus seeds, gordon euryales, coix seed, red beans, jujube, bird's nest, frog, tremella, pork liver and so on. There is also a kind of food that has the effects of nourishing yin and tonifying kidney, replenishing essence and marrow, such as black fungus, black dates, sesame seeds, black beans, pork loin, sea cucumber, nail fish, soft-shelled turtle and abalone.
Winter health care must not be blind, so as not to violate taboos. If necessary, you can consult a doctor and do it under the guidance of a doctor.
Experts remind that you must pay attention to mental conditioning during the cold, and don't be troubled by seasonal emotional disorders. If you have a serious tendency to depression, you must consult a psychologist as soon as possible and take active precautions to avoid winter depression.
The human body constitution is different in cold and heat, yin and yang, the ups and downs of viscera and qi and blood vary widely, and the history of diseases in past dynasties is also complicated. Therefore, the tonic plan needs to be tailored according to the physique and symptoms. Before tonic, you should regulate your spleen and stomach, or eat some "prescriptions" to make tonic.
Don't forget the balance of yin and yang of viscera, qi and blood in winter tonic for the elderly. Old people often have various diseases. When taking nourishing ointment, they should know the performance of the ointment and dietary taboos to prevent adverse reactions. If you take a cream containing ginseng, astragalus and other qi-invigorating ingredients, you should avoid eating raw radish; Tea is generally not suitable for drinking when taking cream; In case of cold, fever and diarrhea. You should also stop taking cream.
Chinese medicine also believes that blood in the human body is easy to flow when it is warm and easy to stagnate when it is cold. Cold weather will make the blood flow in human blood vessels not smooth, and even cause blood stasis, thus increasing the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Medical experts remind that for patients with hypertension, arteriosclerosis, coronary heart disease and other diseases, it is necessary to pay more attention to cold and warmth after winter solstice and add clothes in time. Clothes and trousers should be warm, soft and loose, and should not be worn too tightly to facilitate blood flow. In addition, we should reasonably adjust our diet and daily life, avoid drinking, smoking, overworking, maintain emotional stability, and maintain a good mood to avoid impatience and depression.
Great cold, the chill of attacking people is coming, which is a good season for tonic. There are usually two tonic methods: food tonic and drug tonic. As the saying goes, "medicine is better than food." In winter, food supplement is particularly important. Today, I recommend several small recipes for winter tonic, which are nourishing and not hot, with simple raw materials and simple manufacturing process. I believe it is the best choice for DIY.
