In solar terms, when the temperature rises, there will be more precipitation, and the air humidity will increase, so the sweat in the body will not spread smoothly. Under the damp heat, people inevitably feel sleepy and depressed in their limbs. In daily life, I will teach you several ways to keep fit and prevent diseases.

1. If you need more water, you can take a lunch break.

In some parts of our country, there is a proverb that says: "When you plant a mango on the summer solstice, you need someone to lead you when you walk;" The important person pulling is pulling, and the important person pulling is pushing. "This vividly shows people's laziness at this time. The doctor reminded me to stay relaxed and happy first. In summer, the days are long and the nights are short. Lunch break helps to recover fatigue and is good for health. When awning is planted, the climate begins to be hot, which is a season that consumes more physical strength. Pay attention to hydration and drink plenty of water.

2. medicated bath

After planting awn seeds, it is hot at noon, and people are prone to sweating. Clothes should be washed and changed frequently. In order to avoid heatstroke, you should take a bath often after planting, and "yang heat" is easy to vent. But it should be noted that don't take a shower immediately when sweating. There is an old saying in China that "you can't get wet when you sweat". If you get wet when you sweat, you will get acne. Taking a bath with medicinal bath can best achieve the purpose of fitness and disease prevention. There are various methods of medicated bath, and immersion bath is the main method of health care. Wuzhi Soup (Guizhi Soup, Huaizhi Soup, Taozhi Soup, Liuzhi Soup and Mazhi Soup) has the best bathing effect in the season of awn seeds, that is, the same amount of medicinal gauze is wrapped, added with clear water ten times as much as the medicine, soaked for 20 minutes, then boiled for 30 minutes, and then poured into bath water for bathing.

3. Diet should be light

In terms of diet recuperation, Sun Simiao in the Tang Dynasty advocated that people should "always take sweetness as light, and barley koji and japonica rice are better", and said: "People who are good at health care often need to eat less meat and more rice." While emphasizing dietary supplements, people are warned not to eat too salty or too sweet. In summer, the metabolism of human body is vigorous, sweat is easy to leak out, and gas consumption hurts body fluids. It is advisable to eat more diets that can dispel summer heat and replenish qi, promote fluid production and quench thirst. Due to the decline of body function, the secretion of digestive juice is reduced in hot days, and the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are hardened to varying degrees, the diet should be mainly tonic, supplemented by foods with the functions of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat, protecting the stomach and benefiting the spleen, and lowering blood pressure and lipid.

Potassium should be properly supplemented in the solar terms of awn species, and beware of "summer snoring";

Sweating and potassium deficiency lead to "summer sleep"

As the saying goes: "Spring is sleepy and autumn is lacking, and summer is a nap." "Summer nap" is also called "summer burnout" in medicine. It is because the summer is hot and the temperature is too high, which makes people sweat a lot, and potassium is discharged with sweat in large quantities, which can not be replenished in time, which leads to fatigue and listlessness.

Potassium is an indispensable element in human body, and its main function is to maintain the normal functions of nerves and muscles. Therefore, once the human body is short of potassium, not only its energy and physical strength will decrease, but also its heat resistance will decrease. The most prominent manifestation is limb weakness, with different degrees of neuromuscular flaccid paralysis, especially in the lower limbs, which is called potassium deficiency flaccid paralysis. In severe cases, it will also lead to acid-base imbalance, metabolic disorder and arrhythmia, accompanied by cardiovascular system dysfunction, such as chest tightness, palpitation, and even respiratory muscle paralysis and dyspnea.

But for the elderly, taking a nap in summer is not necessarily a bad thing. According to relevant research, taking a nap for the elderly is a sign of health. Some old people like to take an occasional nap during the day, even if it is only for a few minutes, they will feel refreshed. Old people usually sleep for 5 to 6 hours at night. Taking a nap during the day can supplement the lack of sleep at night and refresh your mind. However, the number of naps should not be too frequent, and each time is generally 10 ~ 15 minutes, otherwise it will affect the quality of sleep at night.

Prevention of "Summer Nap"

Don't drink too much boiled water immediately after sweating heavily.

When the human body sweats a lot, don't drink too much boiled water or sugar water immediately, but drink some fruit juice or sugar salt water to prevent excessive reduction of blood potassium. Appropriate potassium supplementation is beneficial to improve the balance of potassium and sodium in the body, which can not only prevent "summer sleep", but also prevent the blood pressure from rising and low.

Food potassium supplement

Potassium can be taken from daily diet, and foods with more potassium are: buckwheat, corn, sweet potato, soybean and other foods with higher potassium content; Bananas have the highest potassium content in fruits. Spinach, amaranth, coriander, rape, Chinese cabbage, celery, green onion, green garlic, lettuce, potato, yam, fresh peas, edamame and other vegetables have high potassium content.

Although "summer nap" is a physiological phenomenon that people often appear in summer, it should be treated differently. For students, drivers and workers in dangerous industries such as aerial work, it is necessary to prevent "sleeping in summer" so as not to affect their studies or cause danger.

Old people should prevent sitting and taking a nap.

Due to the slow heart rate, vasodilation and slow blood flow during sleep, the blood flowing into various organs is relatively reduced, which is prone to insufficient blood supply to the brain. After waking up, I will feel tired, dizzy, weak legs and tinnitus. If the number of dozing off during the day is obviously increased and the drowsiness is frequent, the elderly often fall asleep unconsciously, so we should be alert to the possibility of cerebrovascular disease and go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible. The preventive measure is that when the elderly at home are found taking a nap, they should immediately lie on their backs and stay away from dangerous environments and articles to avoid accidents.

Drive to prevent napping in summer.

Especially long-distance drivers, brothers and sisters driving taxis, bus masters and other full-time drivers. There are five preventive measures:

First, keep enough sleep time to avoid fatigue driving. Go to bed early and get up early, keep a normal pace of life, avoid too much nightlife, and don't entertain all night.

Second, don't smoke while driving. Smoke contains nicotine and carbon monoxide. Nicotine has an exciting effect on nerves in the early stage and an inhibitory effect in the later stage, which gradually reduces people's attention and memory. Carbon monoxide can reduce the normal oxygen transmission ability of red blood cells and make them sleepy due to lack of oxygen.

Third, turn on the air conditioner less. Turning on the air conditioner is easy to cause insufficient oxygen in the car, leading to hypoxia in the brain and reduced alertness. Perfume with mint and lily fragrance can be placed in the car, which is helpful for refreshing.

Fourth, long-distance driving must rest. Generally, you have to stop every 3 to 4 hours after driving. If possible, wash your face with cold water or apply a cold towel to your forehead. Don't drive hard when you are sleepy, and don't refresh yourself with coffee or strong tea. Coffee and strong tea can only bring temporary excitement, but they can't make you clearly observe the road and make a correct response. The temporary excitement is followed by a continuous state of inhibition.

Fifth, catering should be quantified regularly. Driving on an empty stomach will cause symptoms such as palpitation, weakness of limbs and drowsiness, which will affect driving safety. In addition, drivers had better not eat a lot of milk, bananas, lettuce, fat and alcoholic food before driving. This kind of food is easy to make people feel tired or cause obvious drowsiness and fatigue, and has hypnotic effect.

Students should take a nap in summer.

Of course, in order not to affect the study. Many people have this experience. At school, it is easy to take a nap as long as you meet a class you don't like, especially in summer. There are three preventive measures:

First, ensure adequate sleep and don't stay up late.

Second, eat a reasonable diet, eat three meals well and don't go to class on an empty stomach.

Third, you must be active between classes, and you can wash your face with cold water when you are sleepy.

In short, the characteristics of "Mangzhong" health care are that the spirit should be relaxed, the daily life should be late to bed and early to rise, and the diet should be easy to make up. For some dangerous industries, it is also necessary to prevent "summer sleep".
