Warm up your stomach in autumn


Autumn many people know to prevent dryness, moistening the lungs. While busy in nourishing Yin, do not forget to protect the stomach and nourish the stomach. Autumn is in the transitional stage of "Yang Xiaoyin long", coupled with hot day and cold night, cold and hot climate, easy to cause the recurrence of stomach disease patients. Through proper conditioning and nourishing the stomach, it can be beneficial to improve the gastrointestinal function.

Eat less cold and cool food in autumn

When the weather gets cooler in autumn, many people start to feel upset in their stomachs. Ge Yan explained that autumn is the season when stomach diseases are prone to recurrence or recurrence. Because the gastrointestinal tract is very obvious to the stimulation of hot and cold, autumn is the difference in temperature between day and night, a little attention is easy to catch cold, causing gastrointestinal diseases or aggravating the original stomach disease. Therefore, pay attention to the warm stomach, sleep at night cover the mattress.

Especially people suffering from chronic gastritis or Yang deficiency, Qi deficiency constitution, should pay attention to the stomach in autumn. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that Yang Qi has the function of warm limbs and zang-fu organs, people with Yang deficiency constitution are prone to symptoms of deficiency cold, stomach Yang deficiency is very common in such people, and people with Qi deficiency constitution often feel weak, lack of appetite, pale yellow, the spleen and stomach function of these two groups of people is poor, so the stomach is also prone to conditions in the autumn. In patients with stomach cold, the appropriate amount of ginger and pepper added to food has the effect of strengthening the stomach and warming the stomach.

You should avoid overeating to nourish your stomach

At the turn of summer and autumn, the key is to avoid overeating. Ge Yan said that from a functional point of view, only when the stomach is unobstructed, food can smoothly enter the intestine. If you eat too much, the food in the stomach "big traffic jam", the channel will be blocked, but can not play the role of grinding, digestion, transmission; If you lie down immediately after a meal and do not carry out moderate activities, the food is not easy to "drop" to the small intestine, and can not be truly digested and absorbed by the body, when the food is retained in the stomach, it is naturally easy to cause vomiting, flatulence or belching. Therefore, regulating the spleen and stomach should focus on clearing heat, strengthening the spleen, and eating more cooked, soft and appetizing foods that are easy to digest. Eat less spicy, stimulating and greasy foods, and "clear the intestine" appropriately - drink more porridge in the morning and evening to reduce the burden on the stomach.

For the elderly and people suffering from chronic gastritis, enteritis, because of the weakened spleen and stomach function, hasty supplementation is not advisable. Otherwise, it is easy to aggravate symptoms such as loss of appetite and indigestion due to "vacuity is not compensated".

A happy mood is also good for the stomach

Now urban people work under great pressure, if they often stay up late, the quality of sleep is not high, or the spirit is in a state of tension for a long time, it may lead to insufficient stomach Yin. From the theory of the five elements, the stomach belongs to dry soil, which likes to moisten and hates to dry. In addition, the relationship between the liver and the stomach is also very close, the transportation function of the spleen and stomach depends on the relaxation of the liver qi, so tension, anxiety, depression, anger and other emotions are easy to hurt the liver, resulting in the liver qi is not thin, the spleen is not transported, prone to a series of gastrointestinal symptoms, such as lack of appetite, stomach distention, stomach pain, vomiting, belching and so on.

Therefore, the stomach should also pay attention to the adjustment of the spirit. Pay attention to the combination of work and rest, reduce stress, maintain mental happiness and emotional stability, in order to prevent mental fatigue and affect the normal operation of the gastrointestinal tract.
