After winter, the temperature is getting lower and lower. Yesterday was the 24th day of the air, and this week it will be 10 degrees low. Chinese doctors remind that when Xiaohan arrives, it will be cold and damp. When it rains, it feels particularly cold. You must pay attention to keeping your body warm. Eat more "three-color" foods such as black, white and yellow to nourish the kidneys, nourish the lungs and protect the stomach and kidneys.

The key to nourishing the body after "Xiaohan" is to keep the body warm

Chinese doctor Wu Mingzhu said that when the cold starts, the cold is pouring in, and it is obvious that the temperature is low. This is the prelude to "Great Cold" on January 20, and then it will be cold all the way to the agricultural year. At this time, the key to nourishing the body warms the body and does not catch a cold. The temperature difference between morning and evening has been large recently. As long as you wear less clothes and suffer from cold, you may catch a cold, cough, and have a fever, and your body is not suitable.

After the COVID-19 epidemic, the people's immunity has decreased, and they have encountered immune debts in the post-epidemic era and are susceptible to virus infection. Wu Mingzhu pointed out that in order to keep warm and keep the sun, it is recommended to wear Western-style clothes when going out, from hot clothes, long-sleeved clothes, sweaters, and jackets, from inside to outside. If the temperature is low outdoors, masks, gloves, and towels are indispensable. If you feel cold in your feet, you should wear a sack to make it cold to avoid too much naked skin to prevent "cold entering the brain" and causing unsuitable body.

Eat more "three-color" foods in winter

In terms of diet, it is recommended to eat more black and purple foods, such as seaweed, black fungus, black rice, black beans, sesame, chestnuts, blue berry, purple potato, etc. Some black foods are difficult to digest and affect the function of the stomach and kidneys. They can be matched with sweet potatoes, pumpkins, etc.; in winter, you also need to protect the lungs, so you can eat more white foods, such as mountain medicine, white fungus, high-alkali vegetables, Sishen soup, etc. Among them, mountain medicines have protective effects on the kidney, lungs, spleen and stomach; eating more green vegetables can nourish the liver.

Wu Mingzhu said that when it is cold, people often drink ginger tea, but because it contains ginger and red sugar, it is easy to cause gastroesophageal reflux. In addition, spicy hotpot and ginger duck should not be eaten too much to avoid dry mouth and tongue. Si Shen Tang contains seeds, yam medicine, poria, sausage, etc. Sometimes coix seed is added to strengthen the spleen and remove moisture, nourish the body, and the public can take advantage of the heat.

When running in winter, keep warm. Wu Mingzhu called out that when people go out to exercise, their bodies are sweaty, they immediately change their clothes, bring towels, wipe sweat dry, and avoid colds. Many elderly people like to go out to exercise early in the morning. When the cold current goes south, it is recommended to do warm-up exercises indoors first, and after the sun rises, they will go out to exercise to reduce myocardial infarction and brain risks.
