It is now the autumnal equinox. Before and after the autumnal equinox in previous years, the weather was dry and the rain was less, but today is a bit different. There is more rain. At least it has rained several times in Beijing. But plenty of rain still makes us feel dry.
Dryness may be one of the biggest characteristics of the autumn climate, and it is precisely because of this dryness that it also affects our health. I concluded that after the autumn wind, the dryness will cause two major seasonal problems in our body. One is breathing, which is a period of high incidence of cough, bronchitis, and asthma; the other is skin problems, such as itching, redness, and tightness. Wait. These two problems are closely related to our lungs, so how do we deal with this dryness in terms of diet and living habits?
1. Responding to respiratory problems
I think the autumnal equinox can be regarded as a watershed where the weather changes from warmer to cooler, because before the autumnal equinox, there is the residual heat of summer. After the autumnal equinox, the temperature drops rapidly. The cold is getting stronger, so this alternation is also the main reason for our respiratory problems. At this time, we need to eat more moisturizing foods. At the same time, we need to add some warm foods to drive away respiratory problems caused by sudden cold. cold. Here are some of my favorite foods for everyone.
1. Autumn pear
The lung is a delicate organ in our body. The dryness of autumn makes the lung the most sensitive. It needs moisturizing food to help it. And autumn pear is a refreshing food. When we feel dry and the respiratory tract is uncomfortable, we can take a cup of autumn pear juice every day to relieve the dryness of the mouth and nose and dry throat.
2, pomegranate
red pomegranate seeds , is my favorite fruit in autumn, because it is a warm fruit, it can produce body fluids and quench thirst, it is also very good The anti-oxidant effect nourishes our cells and slows down aging.
3. White radish
The characteristic of radish is that it is juicy, and the taste is a bit spicy. It is precisely this spicy taste that has the effect of promoting vitality, allowing the juice of radish to nourish our lungs.Therefore, radish is a standing dish in autumn and winter
4. Honey: I don't think I need to say more about this ingredient. Its effect of moisturizing and nourishing the lungs has been affirmed.
2. Dry skin
Many friends will ask what is the relationship between dry skin and lungs. In " Huangdi Neijing", there is the lung controlling the skin. It can be seen that the lungs are important to the skin. Keep the lungs moisturized, then our skin problems caused by autumn dryness will also be relieved. This is also the reason why we need to nourish the lungs in the solar term regimen.
1. Eat more foods that moisturize the lungs. This is very important because we can use food to help us nourish the lungs and moisturize the intestines. However, we should pay attention to eating less fried and greasy foods. Spicy friends should also pay attention to eating spicy food as little as possible.
2. The choice of skin care products
To protect the skin, you must not leave skin care products. Generally, we would think that dry skin care products should be moisturizing and moisturizing skin care products, but we must not overlook a problem, dry weather, moisturizing skin care products The product can only be moisturized temporarily, and you will find that it feels dry no matter how to replenish it. In fact, if you want to better lock the moisture of the skin, you should choose oily skin care products, which can help the skin isolate the dry air. .
