As soon as the temperature dropped, many people had a big appetite and wanted to put on "Autumn Wetness" and take some nourishment. However, modern people generally have overnutrition, and not everyone needs to take it.
Experts remind you that before taking supplements, you must find out whether your physical condition is suitable for "big tonic". Even for a physique suitable for nourishing the body, it should be properly conditioned, and both "exhaust and "reduce dryness" should be used to avoid getting angry and causing trouble.
"Put on autumn weight" also needs to prevent fire
There is often the saying " Put on autumn weight ", which means eating more in autumn to save energy for the severe winter. In fact, "putting on weight in autumn" can be said to be an outdated statement.
Before, ordinary people could not eat chicken, duck, fish and meat often. They were low in weight, so they naturally had to put on weight before resisting the cold winter. Nowadays, fish and meat are big every day, and many people are already overweight and obese. Obesity is a disease, and it is also a risk factor for chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes . Therefore, obese people should not blindly "put on weight in autumn".
Li Xianhong, the attending physician of the Department of Prevention Treatment at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, believes that elderly people with hypertension and gastrointestinal diseases are not suitable for autumn supplementation to , especially mutton, venison and other Yiyang products, and are even more not suitable for consumption. Judging from the physical condition, the elderly with real heat constitution, damp heat constitution and phlegm and damp constitution are not suitable for "putting on weight in autumn".
"People with real heat constitution have strong metabolic functions and produce a lot of calories in their bodies, and often have flushed faces and dry mouths; people with damp and hot constitution often have dry mouth, bitter mouth, dry stool and yellow urine; most people with phlegm and damp constitution are obese, accompanied by greasy mouths and greasy mouths. If these three types of people blindly "put on to autumn weight", they will only aggravate physical discomfort, and the more they "put on" the more uncomfortable they feel."
Li Xianhong said, "In addition, elderly people with impatient personality are not suitable for 'putting on autumn weight', otherwise it will aggravate the 'ignorance' or 'qi stagnation', causing problems such as hot hands and soles, dry mouth and throat. "
On the contrary, elderly people who usually have qi and blood deficiency need to take supplements in autumn. , director and professor of the Department of Spleen and Stomach at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Liu Fengbin, believes that elderly people with deficiency of qi and blood often have problems such as palpitations, cold hands and feet, insomnia and dreams, and sore waists and sore legs. If you can take the time to supplement in autumn, so that the energy of the five internal organs can be accumulated, it can lay a solid foundation for health in the coming year.
You might as well dehumidify before "putting on autumn weight"
The Lingnan region is mainly characterized by high temperature and rainy weather. People often feel heavy in their body and weak in their limbs because they feel heavy in their moisture. But the more you don’t exercise, the more dampness will accumulate in the body. Over time, it will cause dampness to attack other organs such as the spleen, which will cause various diseases. Therefore, even if the physical condition is suitable for "putting on weight in autumn", we must do a good job of "exhaust" in the early stage.
Li Xianhong said that before taking supplements, you should first strengthen the spleen and relieve dampness and eliminate excess 'waste' in the body. If you start to supplement after conditioning, it will be more conducive to the absorption of nutrients.
. When conditioning, "exhaust" in autumn must also take into account "moisturizing" . On the one hand, the elderly can eat foods that nourish yin and moisten dryness, nourish yin and promote salivation, such as pear, lotus root, Tremella , Lily , honey, olive , etc.; on the other hand, can use Poria , Yam , Gorgeous kelp , Patchouli , Perilla leaf and other plain Remove dampness to remove dampness , so as to remove dampness without damaging yin.
In addition, Eat appropriate amounts of clean and sweet foods, such as lentils , millet, sugar cane, banana, apple, grape, pomegranate, hawthorn, etc. , which can play a role in nourishing and astringing lung qi, and reduce the damage to the lungs by dry autumn climate.
