[Health Taboos]

1. Eating too sour or too spicy

"Nourishing Yang in spring and summer" is a health principle advocated by medical classics such as the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon. In the relationship between the five organs and five flavors, sour taste has a constrictive effect, which is not conducive to the generation of yang energy and the excretion of liver energy. Therefore, eating too sour or too spicy can damage yang energy.

2. Closing doors and windows tightly

In spring, the temperature rises and humidity increases, and various bacteria and viruses begin to multiply rapidly. If the doors and windows are closed for a long time, or if the air circulation is not good, it is easy to cause the outbreak of colds and contagious diseases.

Whether at home or in the office, it is necessary to ensure that the windows are opened and ventilated twice a day, at least 10 minutes each time. It is best to form air convection. The best ventilation time is after sunrise and before sunset.

3. Taking detoxification pills as soon as you get "hot"

In spring, many people are prone to "getting hot". Some people take detoxification pills as soon as they get "hot" and use anti-inflammatory drugs indiscriminately, which is the biggest taboo for "extinguishing fire". In fact, some symptoms that seem to be "getting hot" are not really related to "getting hot". For example, constipation may be a manifestation of physical weakness. Therefore, in spring, it is necessary to determine whether it is heart fire, stomach fire, liver fire, lung fire, or kidney fire, and then treat accordingly.
