Keep in mind 9 tips for keeping in good health in winter.

1. Don’t refuse cold air
   Many people will stop fitness activities in winter. Studies have shown that the stimulation of the difference between air and skin temperature can strengthen the central regulation of body temperature, constrict blood vessels in the skin, increase muscle excitability and contractility, and effectively improve visceral function. Frequent outdoor physical exercise can enhance the body’s ability to adapt to changes in temperature. Therefore, mastering the scientific method and performing a variety of fitness exercises will also have good results. In winter, you can choose jogging, aerobics, Tai Chi, indoor equipment exercises, winter swimming, etc.
2. Eat cold food appropriately
   Although the outside climate is cold in winter, people often wear thick clothes and spend most of the time in heated or air-conditioned rooms. Coupled with the dry air, the relative lack of activity can easily cause heat accumulation in the body to be unable to dissipate in a timely manner. If you eat too much warm food such as lamb and dog meat, it is easy to cause the body to accumulate heat and “get angry”, such as oral mucosal ulcers, pharyngitis, constipation, hemorrhoids, etc. Therefore, in winter, for friends with healthy gastrointestinal health, if they can choose to eat some “cold” foods such as cold dishes, sexually “cold” foods or drink some cold water according to their own conditions, it is not only harmless, but beneficial, but also beneficial. Can be regarded as a winter health care method.

3. Two can’t hold back
In winter, people often hold back urine or stools for a long time because of coldness. As everyone knows, holding back is very harmful to the body and can cause many diseases. Holding the urine for a long time will cause the urine to accumulate in the bladder, and the urine containing bacteria and toxic substances will not be discharged in time, which can easily cause diseases such as cystitis, urethritis, dysuria, hematuria or enuresis; in severe cases, the urinary tract The infection can also spread upward to the kidneys, causing pyelonephritis. People who often hold back their urine have a significantly higher incidence of prostate disease and bladder cancer. Stools are not discharged in time, and water will be repeatedly absorbed by the intestines, resulting in dry stools that are difficult to discharge. Toxins in the stool accumulate in the body for too long, and harmful substances are absorbed by the intestines, and symptoms such as malaise, dizziness, fatigue, and loss of appetite will appear. For a long time, the flora environment in the intestine is destroyed, leading to a series of anorectal diseases such as constipation, anal fissure, hemorrhoids and so on.
4. Abstinence is not desirable
Health preservation should be “in harmony with the sky and geography”. The natural laws of the four seasons are “spring, summer, autumn harvest, and winter storage”. Winter health preservation is expensive in “Tibet”, so the ancients have long said that “winter abstinence”. In winter, the human body needs a lot of energy to keep out the cold, and sex will consume more energy. Excessive housework can easily affect your health. But it does not mean to stop sex in winter. Regular sex life is good for people. However, how to master the frequency of sex varies from person to person.
5. Dress softly
Wear more clothes in winter, if you don’t wear it carefully, you will feel itchy skin more easily. This is caused by static electricity generated by friction between the body and clothes, and between clothes and clothes, which stimulates the skin. Therefore, in winter, clothes, underwear, shirts, etc. should be used as much as possible for clothes, underwear, shirts, etc., which are not easy to generate static electricity, such as pure cotton and silk. At the same time, pay attention to the matching of clothes. Don’t wear acrylic sweaters if you wear polyester shirts. If you wear synthetic fiber clothes inside, you should not wear insulating polyester coats outside to prevent static electricity.
6, heat preservation and cold protection

In winter, the temperature is low, and exposed parts of the skin are easily frostbite, such as hands, head, and neck. Others, such as the feet, are also susceptible to freezing, so you should pay attention to the cold and heat preservation of these parts. You can wear a scarf, gloves, earmuffs, and cotton shoes to keep warm. You can also rub your hands and ears at any time to pad your feet and exercise in time. Avoid wearing damp clothes, shoes and socks. At the same time, wash your hands and face dry before going out.
7, moisturizing and anti-drying
There are four taboos for bathing in winter: avoid washing too frequently, avoid hot water, avoid heavy rubbing, and avoid soap that is too alkaline. Otherwise, it is very easy to destroy the sebum which is not much on the surface of the skin, making the skin drier, and therefore more prone to itching and chapped. It is advisable to take a bath 1 to 2 times a week. After bathing, you can wipe some licorice oil, anti-itch cream, moisturizer, etc. to keep the skin moist and prevent the skin from drying out and falling off.

8. Skin exercise
Strengthen the exercise of the skin and enhance the adaptability of the skin to adapt to the cold environment. You can take cold baths, air baths, sun baths, massages, etc., or insist on washing your face with cold water and rubbing your body with cold water.
9. Go to bed early and get up late
The concept of health preservation in Chinese medicine emphasizes “the harmony between man and nature”. In winter, the weather is cold and the ground is frozen, the vegetation is withered, and most of the animals and plants are in hibernation to replenish their energy and prepare for growth in the coming year. The human body should also appropriately reduce activities in accordance with the characteristics of nature, so as not to disturb the yang energy and deplete the yin essence. Therefore, the traditional health theory suggests that people go to bed early in winter and get up late, which is beneficial to the hidden yang and the accumulation of yin essence, which is beneficial to health.
