No matter how cold the weather is, there are always people eager to be "ice beauties". They all compete to show off their slender legs and focus more on looking good rather than staying warm, displaying the beautiful but "freezing" side of themselves.
Among them, office working women are the most common. They work in a warm environment all day, and after leaving work, they directly take the bus or private car, with limited exposure to the outside world. If they have to endure a little cold for a short time, they can maintain a beautiful and attractive appearance all day. They fully accept this and can be seen everywhere in the city as "style over temperature" urban women.
Many women may not realize that although they may look beautiful, their stomachs may be suffering greatly. As we enter the autumn season, the weather starts to cool down and our appetites increase, putting more burden on our stomachs. This leads to increased circulation of Qi and blood in the stomach and spleen.
If you wear a leg-baring dress in cold and damp weather in winter, your legs will be exposed to the cold air, and the meridians of the spleen and stomach in the lower limbs will be affected by the cold. The cold air will gather in the stomach and spleen through the meridians, leading to a condition of spleen and stomach deficiency. The main symptoms include stomach pain, cold hands and feet, diarrhea, bloating, etc.
Although it is everyone's dream to show off beautiful legs and an elegant figure all year round at work, we should not sacrifice our physical health for beauty.
I have a friend who is a typical beauty. She has a tall figure and fair skin, and she is the center of attention whether she is in the company or commuting. She pays great attention to her appearance, often wearing tight leggings, mini skirts, or shorts, and in winter, she adds a slim down jacket. While other women may look bulky, she still looks clean and sharp.
However, I do not agree with her approach and often advise her to prioritize her health. But she doesn't think so: "A woman's youth is only a few years, it's not too late to wear warm clothes when her beauty fades in the future."
After years of "freezing", my friend now often experiences digestive discomfort. She often has a tasteless appetite, bloating, and indigestion. Sometimes her stomach suddenly hurts, and the pain worsens when she is exposed to cold wind outside the office. It was only then that she believed my advice and went to the hospital to get some warm stomach medicine for treatment and added more layers of clothing to feel comfortable in her stomach.
I once read a sentence in a magazine: the rotten apple effect. It means that an apple may look red and shiny on the outside, very attractive, but it's actually rotten inside. Just like modern urban women, they all look glamorous and dazzling, even in winter, but they are actually damaging their internal organs and in a diseased state.
Although being a beauty is every woman's dream, they should never strive to be an "ice beauty" for the sake of beauty. Once it gets too cold, the spleen and stomach will be severely damaged, and the food consumed will not be properly transformed into Qi and blood. Qi and blood are the foundation of a woman's beauty. If the spleen and stomach are damaged, it means that a woman loses the fundamental basis of beauty, and she will lose her radiance, making the previous "freezing" in vain.
