Although "inviting people to dinner is not as good as inviting people to sweat", it shows that more and more people realize the benefits of sweating, but they are also sweating. Some people will be harmful to health, while others will sweat for health. Sweating in the sun, in the sauna or on the sports field, which is the correct way to sweat?

Modern people sweat too passively.

There are two ways to sweat: active sweating and passive sweating. When waiting for the bus after work, the clothes were soaked by the sun; Being troubled by work pressure, I am agitated and anxious, and I am so anxious that sweat seeps from my forehead slightly; Sauna with friends, sweating in a sultry environment ... Zhu Xuejun, a professor of dermatology at the First Hospital of Peking University, said that most of these sweating methods are very passive. Generally speaking, sweating caused by weather, environment or psychological pressure is called passive sweating, and only sweating caused by exercise is active sweating. According to the survey, only 28.2% people can exercise regularly in both urban and rural areas. This shows that the main sweating mode of modern people is passive sweating.

There are also differences between moving sweat and static sweat in Chinese medicine. Fu Jieying, a health expert and professor at Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, told the reporter of Life Times that sweating due to weather and environment belongs to static sweating, which is equivalent to passive sweating. Many abnormal static sweating needs attention, such as spontaneous sweating and night sweats. Some people sweat on their foreheads and backs when they are not hot or exercising, and are prone to fatigue, colds and palpitations, especially afraid of the wind and cold. This is called spontaneous sweating, which is a manifestation of qi deficiency. Sweating when you fall asleep at night is called night sweats, which is a manifestation of yin deficiency. Different parts of sweating can reflect a person's physical condition. Hyperhidrosis on forehead and face is the manifestation of stagnation and excessive internal heat, which is easy to be agitated, bitter in mouth and yellow in urine; Sweating in the front and back of the heart is due to lack of qi, and it is easy to be flustered, insomnia, dreamy and forgetful. In addition, there are some ways to sweat, which is a sign before the disease comes. For example, some elderly people sweat and sweat, so be careful of strokes.

The smell and color of sweat are also very particular. If sweat smells fishy, it may be related to heat syndrome or damp-heat syndrome, which generally belongs to liver heat. If sweat is found to be colored, it may be caused by bacteria that produce pigments on the face and armpits, or it may be caused by drugs. For example, sweat with iodide is red.

Sweating actively is the only way to keep healthy.

It is also sweating. Passive sweating can still make people sweat when the weather is hot. Why not take the initiative to sweat? Experts explained that sweating in hot summer or sauna is only superficial sweating of human body, and exercise is the real deep surface sweating, that is, sweating from the inside out. This kind of sweat is self-regulated by the human body. Sweating not only makes people feel comfortable, but also plays the following eight roles.

Expel toxins. Professor Shen, deputy dean of Beijing Chaoyang Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, said that active sweating can accelerate the circulation and metabolism of body fluids, expel toxins accumulated in the body such as lactic acid, urea and ammonia, and ensure the smooth flow of nose, skin, lungs and large intestine.

Control blood pressure. Hypertension is a phenomenon caused by narrowing and hardening of the inner diameter of blood vessels and limited unit blood flow. Exercise and sweating can dilate capillaries, accelerate blood circulation, increase the elasticity of blood vessel walls, and achieve the purpose of lowering blood pressure.

Promote digestion. If you don't sweat, qi and blood will run slowly, which will affect digestion and cause people to eat badly; Nerve activity will also be affected, leading to poor sleep at night.

Prevention of osteoporosis. Many people think that sweating will lead to the loss of calcium in the body with sweat. In this regard, Zhang Yatong, a clinical pharmacist in the Pharmacy Department of Beijing Hospital of the Ministry of Health, pointed out that only water-soluble vitamins will be lost with sweat. Although calcium is soluble in water, its solubility is very low and it is unlikely to be excreted with sweat. On the contrary, sweating is beneficial to the retention of calcium and the prevention of osteoporosis.

Enhance memory. A long-term education experiment for 20,000 middle school students in the United States shows that active exercise and sweating have a positive effect on students, and their memory and concentration can be greatly improved.

Skin care and beauty. People who never sweat have slow skin metabolism and some wastes are difficult to discharge. Sweating can clean pores and achieve the effect of beauty and skin care.

Lose weight. When the human body exercises to a certain intensity, fat will burn and be converted into heat, which will be excreted through sweat.

Make men more attractive. Researchers at Pennsylvania State University say that the smell of men sweating can make women feel happy and relaxed.

Learning to sweat is the most important thing.

Long-term use of air conditioners and lack of exercise have made modern people's pores darker and darker. For people who have no love sweating and no time to exercise, how can they sweat more actively? Experts suggest that in life, you might as well try the following tricks:

Drink hot water and hot porridge before exercise. Drink a cup of hot water or hot porridge before exercise, so that the pores will be ready to open and will not open. After a period of exercise, all pores will be opened and sweat will be thorough. But don't blow the air conditioner, fan or take a cold bath immediately after exercise, wait patiently for the sweat to subside.

Clever use of ginger to promote sweating. Fu Jieying said that ginger is a good thing in summer, which can not only dispel dampness and warm the spleen and stomach, but also open sweat holes. People who have to work in an air-conditioned environment can insist on drinking some Jiang Shui, such as making tea with ginger slices and ginger jujube water. , promote perspiration.

Self-heating starts at the knee. People who work in office buildings for a long time can use hot water bottles and warm babies to increase perspiration. Stick a warm baby on your knee after work every day, so that the human body can generate heat and penetrate deep into the skin. Soaking feet with hot water after going home can also achieve the same effect.

Stand still for an hour. You can make a plan for yourself, turn off the air conditioner regularly every day and sit still for an hour to cultivate your body's ability to sweat actively.

Sunbathing 15 minutes. Sunshine in summer is the best motivation for human body to sweat actively. Every morning at 9- 10 and at 4-5 pm, you can bask in the sun for about 15 minutes and do some simple stretching exercises, which can gradually activate your body energy.

Shen finally reminded that most people are suitable to actively sweat according to their own physical conditions except those suffering from serious diseases such as heart failure. It should be noted that don't blindly pursue sweating, and don't let yourself be too tired and tired in outdoor activities. Don't drink iced drinks after sweating, properly add normal temperature boiled water or light salt water, and take a small amount for many times.
