In winter, the body's pores naturally constrict to retain internal warmth in response to the harsh cold weather. Additionally, the biting cold wind intensifies the internal heat, and consuming insufficient food during this period can lead to weakness. To avoid physical weakness, it is essential to incorporate taste elements that promote strength, such as sweetness, saltiness, and sourness. These flavors help counteract the harsh effects of the cold wind and balance the internal heat. The prolonged nights of winter may induce early morning hunger, potentially resulting in deficiencies of heat, energy, fats, and nutrients. To mitigate these effects, it is advisable to receive a sesame oil massage and incorporate warming elements such as meat soups, a modest amount of alcohol, milk, sweets, and other nourishing foods into one's diet. It is also advisable to dress in warm attire, including boots, and apply hot compression. Spending time in the sun and near a fire in moderation is also recommended. Furthermore, staying indoors in a well-protected environment from the wind and cold is essential.
