Soaking feet has many advantages. What taboos should we pay attention to, otherwise there will be problems?
1, pay attention to the water temperature, not the hotter the better.

Many people like to soak their feet in hot water until both feet turn red. In fact, the higher the water temperature, the better. Too much hot water is easy to destroy the sebum membrane of the foot skin, leading to cutin dryness and even chapping, which is more harmful to patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

In this regard, it is suggested that the water temperature reaches about 40 degrees when soaking feet, which is relatively reliable close to body temperature, and should not exceed 65 degrees Celsius, so as not to add unnecessary trouble to the body.

2, the foot bath time should be reasonable.

Most people always think that soaking feet before going to bed can make us sleep better; Others think that soaking feet after meals can make us healthier.

Actually, it's not. As soon as you finish eating, a lot of blood will flow to the digestive tract. Soaking feet immediately after a meal will undoubtedly disperse the flow of blood, which will affect the normal digestion and absorption of the body in the long run.

In this regard, we suggest that you can soak your feet one hour after meals and 1-2 hours before going to bed. The soaking time should not be too long, generally about 20 minutes is more reliable.

Ginger soaking feet is not as magical as you think. In fact, this is no different from ordinary foot bath. It can speed up blood circulation and make you feel comfortable, but it can't cure the disease. Health science makes you healthy and happy by soaking your feet.

Whether you soak your feet with ordinary hot water or Jiang Shui, it does have a certain effect on your health. In the process of soaking feet, due to the increase of water temperature, the local temperature of the body will increase, thus promoting the expansion of arteries, widening the channels of blood vessels and naturally accelerating blood circulation. This is what we call "promoting blood circulation" and accelerating the process of transporting nutrients to various organs of the body.
