There are a few precautions needed to protect your health during seasonal changes.

It is important to wear outerwear to prepare for the large temperature difference between morning and evening. It is advisable to prepare a thin outer garment to prevent a sudden drop in body temperature. Second, since dry weather can cause itching, showers should be taken with lukewarm water, and after showering, moisturizer should be applied to prevent the skin from drying out.

 

Roughness around the nails is also a common phenomenon during seasonal changes. Cutting nails too short can lead to increased keratinization and make them more susceptible to external stimuli. Therefore, it is advisable to keep nails at an appropriate length and evenly apply hand cream all the way to the nails.

If cold symptoms persist for a long time or occur frequently, it may be necessary to suspect a weakened immune system. Mild fever, runny nose, cough, and other symptoms similar to a cold that occur frequently or last a long time could indicate a decline in immunity.

Additionally, frequent occurrence of stomatitis or canker sores can be a sign of weakened immunity. When immunity is low, conditions such as cellulitis accompanied by skin redness or vaginitis may appear, so caution is necessary.

 

To maintain immunity, it is important to prevent sudden changes in body temperature. Always carry light outerwear and raise your body temperature with warm food or tea. In particular, ginger helps to keep the body warm.

Getting enough restful sleep is also important for immunity. It is recommended to get more than 7 to 8 hours of quality sleep.

You also need to pay attention to your diet.

The most representative dish of autumn health foods is chueotang (loach soup).

Autumn is the season for loaches, whose flesh becomes plump and tastes delicious.

Mudfish is rich in protein, making it perfect for revitalizing the body exhausted from the summer heat. In particular, unlike other animal foods, it contains a large amount of vitamin A.

 

Vitamin A protects the skin, enhances resistance to bacteria, and helps prevent night blindness. It is also good for bone health.

The mucin contained in mudfish also serves to protect the gastrointestinal tract and aid digestion.

Squid rich in taurine is good to eat when you're tired. The taurine contained in regular energy drinks is artificial taurine made from chemicals, but the taurine found in squid is natural taurine.

 

Tomatoes are rich in vitamin C and lycopene, making them a good food to eat when your body feels sluggish on autumn days.

Additionally, berries such as black raspberry, mulberry, blueberry, and aronia are health foods. Blueberries are effective for muscle pain, black raspberries for menopause, mulberries for hair loss, and aronia for anti-aging and eye fatigue.
