With the passing of spring, summer comes quietly. I believe many people are in a hazy state about how to keep healthy in summer. Bian Xiao leads everyone into the summer health care era.

Methods/steps

Drink more water in summer, which is an indispensable part of the human body. It's hot in summer and people sweat easily. Coupled with normal metabolism and urination, it is easy to cause water shortage. If you don't replenish water in time, it will seriously affect your health. It is more appropriate to choose seven or eight cups of warm water every day.

Live in time in summer, try to stay up late, get up early and take a nap at noon. Don't sit under the eaves of the corridor or other vents for a long time, and don't use electric fans for a long time. Because it is hot in summer, the pores are open, and it is easy to be exposed to wind and cold. After a long time, it may cause headaches and many other physical discomfort.

Eat more "bitterness" in diet nourishing. In hot weather, you should eat more light foods that nourish yin, such as wheat, sorghum, highland barley, tofu, spinach, watermelon, etc., and other foods that nourish yin and replenish qi, such as tomatoes, carrots, apples, eggs, milk, lotus seeds, etc. In addition, eat more bitter gourd in summer, because bitter gourd has the effects of enhancing appetite, helping digestion, eliminating fatigue, clearing heart and improving eyesight.

Supplement salt, potassium and vitamins. Sweating in summer will lead to more potassium ions flowing out with sweat, leading to hypokalemia, which will cause fatigue, dizziness, headache and loss of appetite. The most effective way to prevent potassium deficiency in hot weather is to replenish potassium in time, that is, to eat foods containing potassium in time, such as strawberries, apricots, lychees, peaches and plums, and the loss of sodium chloride is also more. Therefore, while supplementing water, you can also add some salt appropriately (you can drink some salt and boiled water every day). Nutritionists also suggest that vitamin B 1, vitamin B2 2mg each and calcium 1g should be supplemented in hot weather, which can reduce the consumption of sugar and tissue protein in the body and is beneficial to human health, so you should eat more watermelons, cucumbers, tomatoes, beans and their products, as well as animal livers and shrimp skins in summer.

Try to wear light clothes. Dark clothes will absorb sunlight and make people's body temperature rise and get hot. At the same time, mosquitoes also have the habit of turning black. Dark clothes are easy to attract mosquitoes, especially black ones.

Precautions for skin itching in summer are easy to cause skin itching and dry pain due to sun exposure. You can apply a small amount of ointment such as skin loose, and don't burn with hot water or alkaline soap, so as not to irritate the skin and aggravate the symptoms.

The amount of exercise in summer should not be too much or too intense. It is advisable to sweat a little after exercise. It is advisable to sweat more, and it is easy to be sad. For those who still insist on exercising in summer, Tai Ji Chuan is desirable. Tai Ji Chuan is one of the most nutritious sports in summer.
