In summer, the human body consumes a lot of energy, and nutrition is lost with sweat, which leads to the decline of immunity. People with weak constitution are prone to infection if they are not careful. In addition, hot weather accelerates people's metabolism, and the blood supply to the heart and brain is insufficient, which often makes people fidgety, tired and lazy. Therefore, from the beginning of summer, it is necessary to arrange work and rest time reasonably, supplement nutrition in time, and adopt correct health care methods in order to spend the summer better. After a long summer, compared with human viscera, liver qi gradually weakened and heart qi gradually increased.

At this time, the dietary principle is to tonify the kidney and help the liver and regulate the stomach. Summer diet should be light, low-fat, easy to digest, rich in cellulose, and eat more vegetables, fruits and coarse grains. Usually eat more fish, chicken, lean meat, beans, millet, corn, hawthorn, peach, papaya, tomato and so on; Eat less animal viscera and fat, and eat less salty food such as salted fish and pickles. In addition, the maintenance of the spleen and stomach, it is best to eat more porridge, porridge and soup, not only can quench thirst, cool, but also nourish the body. The weather is getting hotter in early summer, and the temperature rises obviously, but it is still cool in the morning and evening, and the temperature difference between day and night is still large, so it is appropriate to add clothes in the morning and evening. In addition, after entering summer, the days are long and the nights are short, so sleep should be relatively "late" and "early".

In order to ensure adequate sleep, we must first do a good job in daily life; Secondly, pay attention to the ventilation and coolness of the bedroom; Third, we should maintain a peaceful attitude and strive to be "calm and natural"; Fourth, we should have a proper nap time. Taking a nap in summer can relax the brain and body system, which is beneficial to work and study in the afternoon. Early summer health should also pay attention to "rest". After entering summer, people tend to feel irritable. Therefore, health care in early summer should be "not angry or impetuous", avoid exultation and great anger, and keep quiet and happy. You can also do more quiet cultural and sports activities, such as painting, fishing, calligraphy, playing chess, planting flowers and so on. In early summer, you should choose relatively peaceful sports, such as Tai Ji Chuan, Taijijian, walking and jogging. Pay attention not to sweat too much during exercise, drink warm water after exercise and replenish body fluids. It is not appropriate to use drinks instead of water. Soda, fruit juice, cola and other drinks contain more sugar and electrolyte.

These substances will cause bad irritation to the stomach and affect digestion and appetite. In addition, due to the hot weather in early summer, people often like to take a cold bath after going out. But this is very unhealthy. Because the human body absorbs a lot of heat in the sun, taking a cold bath will make the pores of the whole body close quickly, and the heat will not be released and stay in the body, causing high fever, and it will also cause insufficient blood supply and dizziness due to the rapid contraction of brain capillaries. So the best way is to sweat, take away a lot of body heat, and then take a bath with hot water.
