"One side of the water and soil to raise a party", most of China is in the subtropical and northern temperate zone, where the four seasons are distinct, so our ancestors early put forward the concept of unity of man and nature, which summed up the spring and summer autumn harvest and winter storage of the concept of health.

Summer, is the season of growth and metabolism of all things is very vigorous, in this season everything is so energetic, qi and blood run to the peak, the pores will be very easy to open, will be the body's heat, turbid gas with the sweat out.

Summer is not only a relatively low incidence of the season is also the best period of drug treatment of disease, so Chinese medicine advocates in this season, "more sweat, replenish the excessive loss of fluid", "winter diseases, summer treatment", "three days, eat ambrosia chicken, Fushigou, Fushigou sheep" and a series of health care method.

This statement should not be made by the old Chinese medicine practitioners, but by the new Chinese medicine practitioners.

Old Chinese medicine focuses more on the care of fluids, while new Chinese medicine says it is detoxification and elimination of waste.

Guarding the fluids is generally not easy to listen to, detoxification and detoxification of garbage deep in the hearts and minds of modern society.

Heat dissipation.

I am a Chinese medicine second goat, a clinical Chinese doctor. To answer this question, this starts with the Yellow Emperor's Internal Canon.

The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine (Huang Di Nei Jing), the chapter on the Four Seasonal Laws of Changes of Yin and Yang, and how people should conform to them in order to maintain their health, is dedicated to the four seasons.

One of the things it says about summer is this:

Summer in March, this is called Fan Xiu, heaven and earth gas exchange, everything is real, night lying early, no boredom in the day, so that the will not anger, so that Huaying into the show, so that the gas can be leaked, if the love outside, this summer gas should be, the way to raise the long way also. Against the sadness of the fall for malaria, Feng received less, the winter solstice disease.

Two Sheep Translation

The three months of summer are called fanshou, the time when everything in nature flourishes and is beautiful. At this time, the weather drops, the earth's qi rises, the qi of heaven and earth meets, plants blossom and bear fruit and grow vigorously, and people should sleep at night and get up early.

Don't be averse to long days, your emotions should remain pleasant, never get angry, and you should adapt your spirit to the outward expansion of summer qi.

It makes the qi smooth and free from venting, and the spirit is outwardly oriented, and people like to be outside.

This is a way to adapt to the summer climate and allow yang energy to grow.

If you go against the Qi of summer growth, you will damage your heart, and the conditions for the energy of the fall harvest are insufficient, so you will be susceptible to malaria and other feverish diseases in the fall, and then again in the winter.

The core is to make the "qi smooth, free flow, spirit outward" this is the qi outward Yang growth.

Among them, sweating from exercise is the manifestation of what is loved outside, and is also the embodiment of qi being declared.

In summer, you have to move more, go out more, and sweat more just to comply with the summer chi.

On the contrary, in winter, exercise less and sweat less.

To "remove the cold on the warm, no leakage of skin, so that the gas urgently take, this winter gas should be, the way to raise Tibetan. Against it will hurt the kidneys."

Summer and winter are reversed in that summer yang grows and winter yang has to be hidden.

The middle of the day corresponds to summer and the middle of the night to winter. It's the same pattern.

So move more during the day and stop moving or sweating in the middle of the night.

Sweat more in summer is a layman and very wrong words, the scripture said: "Yang Sheng Yin deficiency, under the healing, sweating is dead, Yin Sheng Yang deficiency, sweating is healing, under the death". Sweat is blood into, such as yin deficiency is blood deficiency, and blood deficiency and then sweat, is not to promote its early death call?

Sweating in the heat is good, but too much of it also loses calcium. People with Yin deficiency will sweat more and should pay more attention!

Sweating should be different from person to person. Sweating is an instinctive manifestation of the body's ability to regulate homeostasis, remove moisture, and detoxify the body. However, sweat is the liquid of the heart, and heavy sweating kills the sun and makes people deficient.

"Summer should sweat more, out through the best" - this is a health wisdom from the "Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine", that is, "so that the qi can be released, if the love of the outside" is also.

Yang is the life force, its amount and the amount of yin with just right is neutral and balanced, is the most healthy state of life, but also the most ideal body. The reason why summer is suitable for more sweating, because at this time in the body of yang qi grand, and our demand for yang qi is just right, not grand, so we need to use the "sweat" way, the body of excess yang qi "spend" off.

Another reason is "dampness". Dampness is born in the summer, the peak in the long summer, through sweating, can achieve the purpose of effective dehumidification.

But here there is a collateral damage, that is, in the use of "sweat" to "spend" off excess yang qi and moisture at the same time, the body of yin qi is also affected. In this season of yin deficiency, but also consumption of yin, can only do is to drink more water, eat more cool, wet to wet food, and strive to complement the yin at the same time, but also to assist in the consumption of yang qi, clear the effect of wet gas.

The summer health care wisdom of the Nei Jing, which is "letting the qi be released", is set up for a neutral and balanced body, under the normal trajectory of "birth, growth, transformation, collection, and storage", and is not suitable for any body type or any physical condition. On the other hand, as long as the body is in line with the "wisdom", no matter what time of the year, you can use this method to maintain health.

As you can see, the phrase "sweat more in summer" is too absolute, and it's better to analyze everything.

It doesn't hurt.
