Editor’s note: In winter, the climate is cold, people are most vulnerable to external evil and cause diseases, especially tumor patients are weak, plus radiation and chemotherapy damage the vital energy, resulting in a decrease in resistance, so we should pay attention to winter health, in order to successfully pass the cold winter. Winter is the season when the sky is cold and the earth is chaparral, all the trees are withered, and the vitality is latent and closed, this season comes when the yang energy is latent and the yin energy is strong, the yang energy of human body is also latent inside with the transformation of nature. Therefore, the basic principle of winter health should also be “closed”, because the body’s metabolism is correspondingly lower after the Yang Qi is closed. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, winter in the kidney corresponding to the normal function of the kidneys, can regulate the body to adapt to the changes of winter, otherwise, that will make the metabolism is out of order and produce disease. Therefore, it is very important to follow the law of nature “closed” and pay attention to “nourishing the kidneys to prevent cold” and “convergence of yin and protection of yang” as the fundamental, from the spirit, living and diet three We should take care of it from three aspects: spirit, living and diet. The Chinese and Japanese Friendship Hospital, Department of Integrative Medicine and Oncology, spiritual conditioning: Chinese medicine believes that a stable mental mood has a good impact on the internal organs of the human body, which can make the qi and blood to reach the normal functioning of the internal organs, while the abnormal mood, joy and anger, too much thinking will hurt the spirit, affecting the qi and blood of the body, thus hurting the internal organs of the human body, resulting in the malfunction of the internal organs and a variety of diseases, so a good state of mind is a prerequisite to ensure health. Therefore, a good state of mind is a prerequisite for health. Tumor patients should strive to be quiet, control emotional activities, keep mental and emotional peace, contain but not reveal, avoid disturbance, so that the yang energy in the body can be hidden, especially patients with liver cancer, stomach cancer, esophageal cancer and other gastrointestinal tumors, in addition to maintaining mental quiet, learn to regulate the bad emotions in time when God is hidden inside, when in a state of tension, excitement, anxiety, depression, etc., should When in a state of tension, excitement, anxiety, depression, etc., they should recover their mental calmness as soon as possible, and can participate in sports, listen to music, practice painting and calligraphy, meditate, play Tai Chi, etc. to make their emotions stable, which is conducive to the recovery of the disease and also in line with the nature of “nourishing and hiding” in winter. The Chinese medicine believes that “cold is Yin, often hurting Yang”, in the cold winter, do not disturb Yang and destroy the physiological function of the body’s Yin and Yang transformation. To “not disturb the Yang, sleep early and get up late, must wait for daylight” that is to say, as “the winter when heaven and earth are closed, the blood is hidden, people should not work and sweat to vent the Yang.” Therefore, early to bed and late to rise, sunrise and work, to ensure sufficient sleep, conducive to Yang latent, Yin accumulation. The clothing is too little and too thin, the room temperature is too low that is easy to catch a cold and consume Yang Qi. On the contrary, too much clothing is too thick, the room temperature is too high, the coup is open, Yang Qi is not hidden, the cold is easy to invade. Therefore, after the winter, the living conditioning should be “to cold on warm” as the principle, if not follow this principle will lead to the consequences of “injury to the kidneys”, thus damaging the body “Yang Qi”. After radiotherapy, white blood cells of tumor patients decrease and immune function is low, so it is more important to pay attention to cold and temperature to avoid cold. Diet adjustment: Tumor patients should follow the ancient principles of “nourishing yin in autumn and winter”, “no disturbance to yang”, “the deficient should be tonic, the cold should be warm”, and adjust their diet according to the change of climate in the four seasons. The Yuan dynasty Khu Si Hui by the “diet is about to” pointed out: “…… winter gas cold, it is appropriate to eat millet to heat to cure its cold.” In other words, winter to eat more hot food to counteract the external cold, to eat less cold, sticky food to avoid damage to the spleen and stomach Yang Qi, but also should not be too warm and manic, warm and dry will consume Yin and hurt Jin, resulting in Yin loss, and eventually “Yin loss and Yang”, damage Yang Qi, so the winter to eat a higher calorie meal is appropriate, such as: beef, mutton, dog meat, goose meat Therefore, it is appropriate to eat meals with higher calories in winter, such as beef, mutton, dog meat, goose meat, duck meat, chicken, carp, etc. At the same time, it is also necessary to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables to avoid vitamin deficiency, such as radish, walnut, apple, chestnut, white potato, green vegetables, fungus, etc. In addition, tumor patients should take food according to the evidence and disease, according to the person, the time and the place, and “tonic” in winter should be selected according to the actual situation, such as clear tonic, warm tonic, small tonic and big tonic. Do not blindly “tonic”, and do not believe in the propaganda of advertisements, superstitiously believe in the role of tonic products, but should consult doctors and experts, targeted choice of food, in order to avoid blindly follow.
