The soles of our feet, though often hidden, are the most resilient part of the body. If you're a fan of high heels, your feet endure constant pressure, which can turn those elegant "jade-like" feet into "rubber-like" ones over time. Here are some tips to help you take better care of your feet:
1. First, step away from uncomfortable shoes and switch to a pair that fits well. If you must wear high heels for work or simply love them, try alternating between different heel heights. This helps distribute pressure more evenly and prevents thickened, calloused skin from forming.
2. When dealing with hardened skin, the best time to treat it is right after a warm bath. The softened skin makes it easier to exfoliate using a foot scrub, followed by a gentle circular massage. Then, use a pumice stone to carefully remove the dead skin.
Foot Care Routine:
- Before bed, make it a habit to apply a nourishing foot cream and gently massage your feet. Wear thin cotton socks to lock in moisture and promote absorption. In air-conditioned rooms, this routine also helps keep your feet warm and comfortable.
- Once a week, give yourself a mini foot spa. Add 4 drops of bergamot and sage essential oils for a fresh, deodorizing effect. If you want a cooling sensation, mix in 2 drops of mint and lemon oil. For relaxation and relief from fatigue, combine 3 drops each of rosemary, lavender, and juniper berry oils.
Fruit Health:
While fruits are generally beneficial, not all fruits are suitable for everyone. Each fruit has unique nutrients, and their effects on the body vary depending on ripeness and individual health conditions.
Eating more fruits is good, but it's important to choose wisely. According to Chief Physician Ge Lihui from the Department of Gastroenterology at Anshan Central Hospital:
- Apples contain pectin, a soluble fiber that acts as a natural laxative.
- Eating one or two bananas daily can reduce the risk of stroke by 40% and also help with digestion.
- Oranges are rich in potassium, B vitamins, and vitamin C, and orange juice contains antioxidants that may help prevent blood clots, heart disease, stroke, and high blood pressure.
Choosing the right fruit depends on your body type. Those with a cold constitution—feeling chilly, pale, and avoiding cold foods—should opt for warming fruits like lychee, longan, pomegranate, cherry, durian, apricot, and chestnut. On the other hand, people with a hot constitution—often thirsty, prone to constipation, and liking cold foods—should go for cooling fruits such as watermelon, pear, banana, and tomato.
For those with specific health issues, certain fruits should be avoided or limited. For example, people with dry stools should eat peaches, bananas, and oranges, while avoiding persimmons, which can worsen constipation. Liver patients should stick to bananas, apples, watermelon, and pears, and avoid acidic or hard fruits. People with stomach ulcers can benefit from bananas, as they help heal gastric ulcers.
