Spring has a variable climate, which is the most prone season for various diseases, and can cause various physical discomfort. So how do men maintain their bodies in spring? The following editor will introduce some common sense of male health protection in spring.
Fire prevention: drinking light salt water
The climate began to warm at the beginning of spring, and the natural Yang Qi sprouted from weak to strong, while the Yin Qi turned from strong to weak and even disappeared. The newborn wants to occupy the stage, while the curtain call still refuses to step down. The battle between yang and yin is intense, so the climate is volatile, with cold at first, warm at first, sunny at second, and rainy at second. Like nature, the yang qi in the body also begins to awaken with the warmth of spring, gradually becoming the protagonist. If encountering a sudden rise in external temperature and a surge in yang qi, the yang qi inside and outside the body is intertwined, which can easily lead to heat accumulation in the body.
Clinical data have shown that this season is extremely prone to catching fire. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that there is an invisible "fire" in the human body, which can generate warmth and strength and maintain the function of organs. However, if it loses control, the fire will rise and cause symptoms.
The symptoms of "high fever" include dizziness, oral ulcers, swollen and painful gums, sore throat, breathing, acne on the face, and it can also affect the digestive system, causing yellowing urine and constipation. At the same time, the fire in the body can induce external sensations, increasing the risk of catching colds, pneumonia, and meningitis.
Throat swelling and pain: mash the tender loofah to squeeze juice, and rinse frequently; Rinsing with vinegar and equal amounts of water can alleviate pain; Rinse your mouth with a spoonful of soy sauce and spit it out for about 1 minute for 3-4 consecutive times.
Dry mouth and tongue: Boil lily, almond and japonica rice together. When the Congee is cooked, add diced pear and loquat, and then add a little honey.
Face acne: Wash celery, tomatoes, pears, and lemons and drink them with juice once a day; Alternatively, using carrots, celery, and onions to extract juice can clear heat, detoxify, and dispel fire.
