Ways to prevent colds

Prevention method 1: Cover yourself more in spring

There is an old saying: cover in spring and keep warm in autumn. "Cover in spring" means that in spring, when the temperature just turns warmer, don't take off your cotton clothes too early. After wearing cotton clothes for several months in winter, the body's heat production and heat dissipation regulation is in a relatively balanced state with the winter ambient temperature. As winter turns to early spring, the weather is warm and cold, and the temperature changes greatly. As the saying goes, "Spring is like a child's face, changing three times a day." If you take off your cotton clothes too early, once the temperature drops, you will find it difficult to adapt and your body's resistance will decrease. Pathogens take advantage of the opportunity to attack the body, easily causing various respiratory diseases and infectious diseases in winter and spring.

Therefore, keeping warm in spring is very beneficial for maintaining good health and preventing spring colds.

Prevention method 2: Eat more seasonal vegetables and fruits

People often say that a year's plan begins with spring. Spring is a season full of vitality and the season when all things come back to life. Many spring vegetables and fruits have appeared in vegetable markets and supermarkets. Eating seasonal vegetables and fruits is good for your health. Vegetables and fruits can supplement fiber and vitamins, and are the best foods for enhancing your body's elements.

Prevention method three: Dress according to the person and the weather

"Spring is like a child's face, changing three times a day." The temperature in spring changes frequently, and the change may be 10~20°, so don't take off too many thick clothes when it's hot for one or two days. In early spring, there is a large temperature difference between day and night, and cold air often invades. For example, this year there was peach blossom snow in March. Therefore, do not take off your clothes too early, and don't wear sandals too early.

However, despite this, everyone's physique is different, and it is easy for people's clothing to be "chaotically matched" during this period of time. This varies from person to person. Some people have a hot physique, so they can wear fewer clothes, but it should not be too close to "summer". For people with poor physical constitution, it doesn’t hurt to wear more.

Prevention method 4: Maintain a regular lifestyle

Go to bed early and get up early to stay healthy! Maintaining a regular daily routine and exercising moderately will allow your body to adapt to the warm weather as quickly as possible, improve your body's immunity, and better prevent colds.

Prevention method 5: Get enough sleep

We humans spend one-third of our day sleeping, which shows how important sleep is to us. We often hear people say that adequate sleep is a prerequisite for good health. If your sleep quality is poor, your body is likely to have problems. Moreover, the warm weather in spring can easily make people feel sleepy and lack of sleep. This is due to the change of seasons and the longer days. It is not a strange phenomenon. Maintaining a good schedule and adequate sleep can improve the body's resistance and prevent cold viruses.
