After a drum of light thunder stung, the fine sieve light rain fell on the plum sky - today's sting.
During the sting period, most of the plants begin to turn green, and the yang energy of the human body changes from the state of hibernation in the kidney water in winter to the state of rising yang energy of the liver wood.
Therefore, in spring, it is easy to liver wind and liver fire irritability, which can easily cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and hypertension. Therefore, the health preservation should be based on protecting the liver and strengthening the spleen.
In spring, it is easy to hurt the spleen when the liver qi is strong, at this time, eating less sour taste can prevent the liver qi from being too strong, and sweet food can nourish the spleen and stomach.

In addition, modern people eat less and eat more due to exercise, and the stomach is surrounded by a lot of oil, so they should eat a light diet and eat more dietary fiber to clear the heat, such as: pear, water chestnut, celery, camellia, lettuce, cucumber, etc.
Before and after the sting, the cold qi gradually decreases, the yang qi rises, the blood vessels of the human body are dilated, the blood supply to the brain is reduced compared with winter, and the excitability of the central nervous system is weakened, causing spring trouble.
Many people think that sleeping more can relieve fatigue, but the result is often that the more you sleep, the more sleepy you get.
This is because too much sleep cannot conform to the characteristics of spring, but will inhibit the rise of yang energy and aggravate spring sleepiness.
In spring, you can go to bed late and get up early, stretch your waist more, so that the blood circulation can be accelerated, the joints and muscles of the whole body can be moved, and the sleepiness can be reduced.

Cover the waist and abdomen: People's yang qi is based on the kidneys, and the kidneys reside in our waist and abdomen, once the waist and abdomen are cold, it is easy to have problems such as numbness, pain, soreness and weakness in the lower limbs.
Cover your calves: Some people will have headaches and other symptoms in cold weather, as the old saying goes, "the cold starts from the feet", so the "spring cover" should be thick and thin.
Of course, spring cover is also temporal, when the temperature continues to stabilize around 15 °C, you can appropriately reduce clothes to end spring cover.
