　　In fact, every organ in the human body is very fragile, so you should take good care of your organs in your daily life, especially for some organs that need to be used every day. The lungs are an organ that often suffers from disease, and if the lungs suffer from disease, it will affect the normal function of the upper body, so it is important to take special care of the lungs in daily life. So aboutWhat are the lung maintenance and dietary treatments呢?

　　How to take care of your lungs

1, lung maintenance of breathing method

　　The lungs are responsible for respiration. The quality of the inhaled gas has a great impact on the function of the lungs, as clear and dirty air are exchanged within the lungs. In order to keep your lungs clear, first of all, you should quit smoking, avoid the harm of second-hand smoke, and do not stay in places where the air is dirty for a long time. If you are in a position to do so, you can often go to places with lush vegetation and fresh air, do exercises, take deep breaths, and exhale deeply and intentionally to expel the turbid gases from your body.

2, lung maintenance of drinking water method

　　The lungs are an open system, from the nose to the trachea to the lungs, forming the pathway for air. Moisture in the lungs can be lost as air is expelled. Dry air is more likely to take away the moisture, causing damage to the lung mucosa and respiratory tract. This is what Chinese medicine says, dryness easily injures the lungs. Therefore, timely hydration is an important measure for lung maintenance.

　3, lung maintenance of emotional regulation

　　Lungs are sadness and sorrow in the aspiration, sadness and sorrow can easily damage the lungs, and people with lung diseases are also prone to sadness and sorrow. Laughter is the voice of the heart, which can overcome the sadness of the lungs. Laughing more often can reduce sadness and sorrow. Laughing is also a kind of fitness exercise, which can make the thorax expand, increase lung capacity and stretch the chest muscles. This helps to promote lung qi, which is conducive to the rise and fall of the body's qi. A smile every day can eliminate fatigue, relieve depression, broaden the chest and regulate qi, restore physical strength and improve appetite.

4, lung maintenance of the diet

　　Appropriate dietary maintenance. For diet, eat more vegetables and fruits, supplement all kinds of vitamins, is very important, because with the improvement of economic conditions, the standard of living, people are fish and meat every day, reducing the intake of vegetables and fruits. In addition to regularly develop their own lung recipes, there are many, you can learn more to learn. I have eaten and understand the lotus seed lily lean meat, crystal sugar steamed pear, Sichuan shellfish pear pig lungs and so on are good recipes for the lungs, if you love cooking, you can go to the study.

　5, lung maintenance of exercise methods

　　Exercise more in the morning and breathe fresh air to clean your lungs. The air in the morning after the night's quiet, become quite clean and fresh, therefore, more breathing in the morning air, morning walk or exercise, not only the lungs, but also increase the body's physical fitness and resistance.

The following TCM perspective answers this question for you:

First of all, life pay attention to keep warm and avoid cold, eat less cold drinks. Summer heat is intolerable, some people all day long from the electric fan or air conditioning, so that the cold air from the skin, pores invade the human body, easy to injure the lungs of the yang qi, leading to a decline in immunity in the upper respiratory tract, bacteria, viruses are easy to take advantage of the situation. Others like to drink ice cold drinks, eat ice fruits and melons, which will damage the spleen and stomach, consume Yang Qi, triggering a variety of diseases. Therefore, summer to keep warm and avoid cold, air conditioning temperature should not be too low, do not blow too long, eat less cold food, drink water to warm water is appropriate.

Secondly, the diet should save bitterness and increase pungency. Tang Dynasty "King of Medicine" Sun Simiao in the "Thousand Golden Essentials" proposed: "summer seventy-two days, save bitter and increase the Xin, in order to raise the lung gas." Summer heart fire in season, and bitter food, despite the heat and fire, fixed wheezing and diarrhea, etc., but will help the heart gas and control the lungs, so it is not recommended to eat in the summer, so as not to overheat the heart. Because of the heart fire can gram lung gold, and pungent to the lung meridian, so in the summer, people can eat more onions, ginger, garlic and other pungent food, which has a hair dispersal, line Qi, blood, and other functions, can be complementary to the lungs.

Thirdly, reasonable exercise to strengthen the body. Appropriate exercise can improve the body's own immunity against various diseases. Summer climate is hot, exercise should not be overly strenuous, the best in the early morning and evening cooler outdoor exercise, it is advisable to choose a smaller or moderate exercise, such as jogging, tai chi, swimming and so on.

Fourth, massage points. Before going to bed sitting on a chair, two knees naturally separate, hands on the thighs, is the body eye closed, the whole body relaxation, intention to guard the dantian. Inhale in the chest, both hands into a hollow fist, knocking chest danzhong point position dozens of times, can ask family members to use the palm from the back of the spine on both sides of the bottom to the top of the pat for about 10 minutes, you can enjoy the chest of the gas, the effectiveness of healthy lungs and lungs.
