Summer is the highest temperature season in a year, and the metabolism of the human body is very strong. People are easily affected by the hot summer temperature, and their physiological functions and appetite will change. High temperature and humidity in summer often make people listless, tired and weak, chest tightness and dizziness, loss of appetite and emaciation. At this time, it is of great benefit to eat hard food. Chinese medicine believes that the reason why people are unhappy in summer is because the summer heat is wet, which not only hurts kidney qi but also sleepy spleen and stomach. Next, I will share with you a few health tips.

1, reasonable diet

In hot summer, the digestive system will become more fragile. In terms of diet, it is mainly to clear away heat and promote diuresis, strengthen the spleen and replenish qi, eat more foods with the effect of relieving summer heat and promoting fluid production, and stay away from fried spicy and indigestible foods. It is recommended to choose bitter food. Alkaloids contained in bitter food have pharmacological effects such as relieving summer heat, promoting blood circulation and relaxing blood vessels. Eating some bitter food in hot weather can not only clear the heart, relieve annoyance and refresh the mind, but also stimulate the appetite, strengthen the spleen and benefit the stomach.

2. Proper exercise

The air is cloudy in summer morning, which is not suitable for sports. 10 to 16 is the hottest time of the day. During this time, exercise is prone to heatstroke and muscle strain. The best exercise time is 5-7 pm. I suggest you choose indoor sports, such as swimming, indoor and badminton. The exercise time should be controlled at 1-2 hours. For a long time, physical exhaustion and heatstroke are prone to occur.

3. Take some time to take a lunch break

In summer, the days are long and the nights are short, plus mosquito bites, which affect sleep and easily lead to insufficient sleep. You can take 30 minutes to 1 hour lunch break every day. Summer is the best time to take a nap all year round. At this time, taking a nap can eliminate the fatigue of the whole morning and restore energy.

4, tea or light salt water is the most thirst-quenching.

It is easy to sweat in summer, which will take away minerals, vitamins and salts in the body. If you drink boiled water all the time, it will not penetrate into blood vessels and cells, and boiled water will enter the bladder and sweat and be excreted. Instead of relieving the sense of taste, it will cause headache and dizziness. Drinking light tea or light salt water in summer can supplement the vitamins and minerals lost by the body, refresh the mind, promote fluid production and quench thirst, improve people's appetite, and help to detoxify and sterilize.

Ok, today's knowledge sharing is over. I wish everyone a healthy summer!
