2 Things to Pay Attention to for Spring Health Preservation
Although the temperature has risen to a certain extent now, the cold has not completely receded. In this season of alternating warmth and cold, health preservation should not be ignored.
1. "Spring covering" should not cause excessive sweating.
There is a saying among the people: "Keep warm in spring and keep cool in autumn." To a certain extent, "spring covering" is beneficial to health, but it does not mean that everyone can achieve health by simply doing so. "Spring covering" should be targeted at different groups of people. For example, the elderly and children, after a winter of cold, when spring comes and yang qi rises, their body's recovery also needs a process. It is not that health care effects can be achieved by simply "spring covering". In traditional Chinese medicine, the measure of "spring covering" is not to sweat excessively. If the weather is very hot and you are still wearing many layers, sweating a lot will have the opposite effect.
2. It is not advisable to wear single shoes too early.
As the saying goes, "Disease starts from the feet." Now many young people start wearing single shoes very early, which is very bad for their health. The feet and lower legs are the confluence of the three yin and three yang meridians of the human body. The inner side of the lower leg is the three yin meridians of the liver, spleen, and kidney, and the outer side is the three yang meridians of the gallbladder, stomach, and bladder, which are very important for the human body. Therefore, you must pay attention to keeping warm and should not wear single shoes too early.
