How to maintain health during the Beginning of Summer

During the Beginning of Summer, various health care issues will arise. If you do not pay attention to these health care issues at this time, it will easily cause some disease troubles to your body. Therefore, I hope that everyone can pay more attention to these health care work in life. Let’s learn about the Beginning of Summer and how to scientifically and effectively help yourself achieve health care effects. I hope everyone can pay attention to these issues.

Health care is something that each of us needs to pay attention to, because it is directly related to our physical health, but we also need to pay attention to the methods we choose, especially in the daily diet process, we must pay attention to our own diet health care, so that we can give full play to its health care effect.

Eat fruits and vegetables to calm your mind

Since the Beginning of Summer is the beginning of summer, it is also the beginning of the temperature rising. When the temperature is hot, people's temper will inevitably rise, and they will often become restless and irritable. This requires us to maintain a good diet, eat more fruits and vegetables, and less meat, which will help calm our minds. People with poor stomachs should never eat chilled fruits. It is best to choose to eat more cool or warm fruits, and try to eat less out-of-season fruits. Cool fruits include: pears (people with poor stomachs should eat less) and bananas (do not eat on an empty stomach); warm fruits include: apples (one of the best fruits that anyone can eat and it is also nutritious), lemons, and tomatoes (people with excessive stomach acid should eat less); easily digestible melons, pears, apples, etc. are also good.

Take a heart-healthy lunch break

In summer, the heart yang is at its strongest and most functional. When the temperature rises, people tend to become irritable and lose their temper. This is because the high temperature aggravates people's tension and excessive heart fire. At this time, people not only have mood swings, but their body's immune function is also relatively low. If there is any problem with their daily life and diet, various diseases will occur. The dietary principle after the beginning of summer is "nourishing yang in spring and summer", and the focus of nourishing yang is on "nourishing the heart". Therefore, we should pay special attention to the care of the heart during the whole summer health care. To nourish the heart, you can drink more milk, eat more soy products, chicken, lean meat, etc., which can not only supplement nutrition but also strengthen the heart. Eating more vegetables, fruits and whole grains on a regular basis can increase the supply of fiber, vitamin C and B vitamins, which can help prevent arteriosclerosis.

After the beginning of summer, you can adjust your personal biological clock appropriately, develop the habit of going to bed late and getting up early, adapt to the changes in nature where yang is excessive and yin is deficient, and increase your lunch breaks. The temperature is highest from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. in the afternoon. People tend to sweat easily and any slight activity will cause them to consume more energy due to sweating and make them easily fatigued. Therefore, you can listen to music or close your eyes and rest at noon, and it is best not to work overtime. The duration of nap varies from person to person, generally half an hour to one hour is appropriate. Nap time that is too long will damage your spirit.

Appropriately "increasing sourness and reducing bitterness"

During the Beginning of Summer, the changes in nature are that the Yang Qi gradually grows and the Yin Qi gradually weakens. Relative to the internal organs of the human body, the liver Qi gradually weakens and the heart Qi gradually strengthens. The dietary principle at this time is to increase sourness and reduce bitterness, nourish the kidneys and liver, and regulate the stomach Qi. When the weather turns hot, the human body sweats a lot and loses body fluids easily. It is necessary to eat sour foods appropriately, such as tomatoes, lemons, strawberries, black plums, grapes, hawthorns, pineapples, mangoes, kiwis, etc. Their sour taste can reduce sweating, stop diarrhea and eliminate dampness, prevent excessive sweating from consuming qi and damaging yin, and can produce body fluids, quench thirst, and strengthen the stomach and aid food.

The above is some introduction about the health preservation at the beginning of summer. I hope that after reading these introductions, everyone will have a more comprehensive and thorough understanding of the health preservation at the beginning of summer. As long as we pay attention to these health preservation common sense, we can better ensure our own health and reduce the harm of some diseases.
