1, take stock of the misunderstanding of male health preservation
Myth 1: It's too early to worry about heart disease.
Doctors believe that heart and arterial diseases may actually begin in youth, and when there are obvious symptoms such as shortness of breath after 50 years old, the situation is already very serious.
Men should maintain normal weight, low cholesterol level and exercise regularly when they are young.
Myth 2: Not afraid of sunshine
Men have a high risk of skin cancer because they don't pay attention to using sunscreen. Doctors suggest that men over 40 should wear high-coefficient sunscreen in strong sunlight.
Myth 3: Dental disease is a trivial matter.
More and more studies have found that there is a certain relationship between periodontal disease and heart disease. Oral infection will increase blood viscosity and reduce blood supply to the heart. Therefore, it is very important to maintain oral hygiene and prevent dental diseases.
Myth 4: Weightlifting is all about exercise.
Health care doctors say that weightlifting is a good exercise, but it is not the whole content of the exercise. Aerobic exercise is more effective in keeping heart and muscle healthy and increasing body flexibility.
Myth 5: Seeing a doctor is more terrible than suffering from cancer.
Many men don't like doctors, even afraid of seeing them, and don't have regular physical examinations on time. In fact, many diseases have been delayed.
Experts suggest that men over the age of 40 should know their family history and regularly check important organs such as prostate. Early detection of diseases and early treatment can achieve good results.
Myth 6: Women have a midlife crisis.
Doctors say that men also face physical changes in middle age, decreased hormone levels, decreased muscle weight and osteoporosis. Nowadays, the medical community has been developing hormone therapy for men.
Although this treatment has just started, it is of positive significance for men to keep energetic, improve work efficiency and maintain family stability.
The above are some misunderstandings about male health care introduced by Bian Xiao. Among them, what other tricks do men have for sun protection?
2, men's sunscreen has a coup
Sun protection coup 1, sun protection and hydration go into battle
What men must do before sun protection is to replenish water. It is convenient and effective to carry a hydrating spray with them. If you go out for a short time and sweat a lot, you won't feel too uncomfortable, or even if you stay out for a long time.
But if the protective measures are in place and there is nothing uncomfortable, just spray some hydrating spray. If the skin is only hot at this time, it means that it is in the initial stage of injury.
Then, the most important thing is to do a good job of cooling down, such as cooling down with cold water in time, which is the best way to reduce skin damage, but ice compress is not recommended, because too large a temperature difference will do harm to the skin.
Sun protection coup 2, refreshing oil control is the most comfortable.
Men have thick cuticle, large pores and many sebaceous glands. Therefore, the skin is slower and more elastic than women, so it is not easy to produce fine lines, but more than 80% of male skin belongs to oily skin.
Excessive oil secretion will lead to pore blockage, acne or acne, which makes oil control the first task of male sun protection. Most men's skin care products also introduce oil-free formula for this feature. Men must be optimistic about whether they have oil control function when choosing sunscreen products.
Sun protection coup 3. Don't scratch if there is redness and swelling.
The skin is sunburned with redness, itching and pain. Don't scratch it. This is not only easy to get infected, but also leaves scars. Itching and redness have appeared, so leave the sun exposure environment as soon as possible.
Then use cold water to quickly cool down. After the skin temperature drops, you can do some care, such as applying some aloe toner or lotion, which can play a calming and anti-inflammatory role.
You can also apply cucumber juice to your face. Vitamin C contained in cucumber juice can not only replenish water, but also treat peeling. Apply it to the painful part 10 minute, and the pain will be gradually relieved, then rinse with clear water.
Sun protection coup 4. It is very important to repair after sun exposure.
Men do a good job of sun protection, so it is also essential to repair after sun exposure. If the sun protection is done well, then it is good to go home for normal care. If there is a problem with the skin, then we should take several steps: cooling-hydrating-skin care.
Summary: The misunderstanding and simple analysis of male health care introduced in the above small series. These misunderstandings must be avoided, especially in terms of sun protection. Do a good job in sun protection to protect your skin!
3. How to protect yourself from the sun in summer?
1, thick sunscreen, thin wipe.
Go out in a hurry to apply sunscreen, but the higher the coefficient, the thicker the texture and the more uneven it is. Try to apply sunscreen by tapping! First, apply sunscreen lotion to the parts that are most prone to sunburn, such as forehead, nose and cheeks. After you faint gently, pat evenly, which is quick and convenient. Thin sunscreen is also good in ductility, just apply it evenly.
2. Pay attention to the amount of sunscreen.
The premise of ensuring that the protective effect is consistent with the product logo is that you apply two milligrams of sunscreen products to one square centimeter of skin. However, the survey of consumers' habits shows that the average woman only uses 0.5 mg per square centimeter at a time, so the protective effect can only reach 1/3 or even 1/4 indicated on sunscreen products.
3. Eating more watermelons is more sun-proof.
Eating watermelon is different from drinking water or drinks. It is not only a supplement to human body water. Watermelon juice contains a variety of chemical components that are beneficial to health and beauty, such as amino acids that can promote skin physiological activity. These ingredients are easily absorbed by the skin and have good moisturizing, nourishing, sunscreen and whitening effects on facial skin.
