睡覺蓋被的學問
阿細：「從小到大媽媽都說，睡覺時蓋被要蓋著肚子和膝頭，為甚麼？」
CheckCheckCin：中醫古籍《小兒病源方論》裡提及過「養子十法」：「一要背暖，二要臍暖，三要足暖」背部為陽中之陽，特別易受風邪入侵，容易引致感冒、咳嗽等疾病。臍要暖是因為腹部為脾胃和腎的要地，腹部受凉男士有可能出現腎陽虛，女士則會因宮寒而引起痛經等問題。如果腹部受凉容易傷及脾胃，引致腹痛、肚瀉等情況。「寒從腳底起」，腳因為離心臟最遠，血液供應慢，是全身最怕凍的部位，尤其膝蓋只有薄薄一層皮，沒有脂肪，容易遭受風、寒、濕邪的侵襲，令下肢氣血不流暢，容易引起關節痛。這些養生理論代代相傳下，便成為你媽媽溫馨的叮嚀了，雖然睡覺時未覺寒冷，但入睡後體溫下降，蓋一張薄薄的被子能免受風寒侵襲。

Sleeping under the blanket
“Ever since I was young my mom would tell me to cover my tummy and knees with a blanket, but why do we need to do that?”
CheckCheckCin: Ancient Chinese Medicine literature “Study on the Theoretical Origin of Children’s Diseases” stated ten methods in looking after the children: “first, warm the back; second, warm the belly button; third, warm the feet”.
A person’s back is the central system of the yang, where the wind pathogen can invade easily, causing flu and cough. The belly button should be kept warm because it houses the spleen, stomach and the kidneys. Men with a cold tummy might experience yang deficiency in the kidneys; women might develop a cold uterus, which will lead to problems such as menstrual pain. If the tummy gets cold, it will hurt the spleen and stomach, hence causing stomachache and diarrhea.
“Cold enters through the foot soles”. Our feet are the furthest from the heart, and the circulation of blood is also the slowest, causing it to be the most sensitive body part to cold. This is especially true for our knees, because it is only protected by a thin layer of skin without an ample amount of fat, making it susceptible to the invasion of the wind, cold and damp pathogens. This can cause the lower limbs to experience an improper circulation of the blood and qi, as well as pain in the joints.
All these tips have been passed down from one generation to another. This is why our mothers imparted the same knowledge to us. You might not feel the cold at first, but our body temperature will drop during sleep. We recommend you to cover yourself with a thin blanket, to prevent the wind and cold from invading your body.
