The hot sun is in the sky, and the dog days are here. It also coincides with the summer of eating, drinking and having fun around the earth. How can we miss such a season with a long holiday? Facing ice cream, cold noodles, barbecue, chilled watermelon, mala Tang, crayfish and so on. These summer foods are full of temptations! Drink and talk about life, then date three or five friends, and you will never be happy again!

In summer, we should do these three little things well: eat less, walk more and not get angry.

Food is the most important thing for the people, and eating is something that each of us can't live without. Confucius said: "eat drink man woman, there is a great desire of human beings." But in the face of many delicious foods, it is difficult for us to control ourselves from gluttony.

In hot summer, the spleen and stomach are relatively weak, so we should pay more attention to diet: first, don't eat too fast, second, don't eat too full, and third, don't eat too cold.

Huangdi Neijing said: "Eating twice as much will hurt the stomach." Eating too much can easily burden our stomach, the food is difficult to digest, and our stomach will feel too uncomfortable. Eating things that are too cold easily irritates our stomachs. Cold food will have a bad effect on our gastrointestinal function. After a long time, it will damage the qi of the spleen and stomach, leading to vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, stomach pain and so on.

When chewing food many times, digestive enzymes contained in saliva can help break down food, reduce the burden on the spleen and stomach, and bring a stronger sense of fullness.

As the saying goes: walk a hundred steps after a meal and live to ninety-nine. This sentence is not unreasonable. It is difficult for most people to keep running every day. At this time, walking is a simple and convenient way to exercise, and it is not easy to get hurt, which has many benefits for your health. Open your arms and legs. As long as you exercise, you can get effective exercise. Walking is also aerobic exercise, sweating slightly, but it helps to exercise.

It is clearly stated in Huangdi Neijing: "Don't be angry with your will, so you can vent your anger. This summer's anger should be met, and the way to grow is also. " When the weather is hot, people tend to become impatient, angry and even irritable. Summer belongs to fire, fire is yang, and yang spirit reaches the heart.

Chinese medicine believes that anger hurts yin, and violent joy hurts yang. Qi hurts the essence, anger hurts the liver, happiness hurts the spleen, and sorrow hurts the kidney. Anger and anger can also have an impact on our health. Great emotional fluctuations, such as rage and ecstasy, are likely to lead to retrograde qi and blood, which in turn will lead to various diseases.

But if you are angry for some reason, remember to drink a glass of water and take a deep breath to calm your mood. Because it is not worthwhile to make others angry, and it is not good for your health; Because being angry with ourselves is not worth it, we don't need to hurt ourselves!

Be careful not to eat too much and avoid eating too little. Cooking in summer is also for eating normally when it is hot. But in fact, in summer, many people can't eat because of the hot weather and suffer from "summer anorexia". We often encounter that it is too hot outside, and when we get home, we will gulp down our drinks to cool down. We often feel full after drinking heavily. This will inevitably affect our appetite.

Why can't I eat in summer? The reason for this is the following：

Wen Rong Tezuka, a Japanese nutritionist, pointed out in "Stuttering Health" that every time the temperature rises 10℃, the human body's demand for calories will be reduced by an average of 70 calories, and the human body's demand for calories will be reduced in summer, so that people will not feel hungry.

Working outside, there may be air conditioning in the office, but for some exposed people, sweating and excessive dehydration are common. Pay attention to the types and vitamins when drinking drinks. Even after work, walking out of the door is a heat wave and sweating like a pig. In the air-conditioned room, you can't feel the water evaporation, but the water intake of human skin is less, and the gastrointestinal tissue is slightly dehydrated, which affects your appetite.

It's easy to get thirsty in summer, and it's hot. Some people are used to swigging sugary drinks. A bottle of drink will often make you feel full soon. However, sugar is a natural appetite suppressant, because sugar can be quickly absorbed by the blood, and glucose and gold in the blood can provide energy for the human body, which will make people feel full at once, so they can't eat anything, forming a vicious circle.

Summer is hot, the human body loses water quickly, and the diet must pay attention to hydration. At the same time, some fruits and vegetables are cool, so eating more can relieve the heat. But we should also control the intake, and we must not replace the staple food with fruit. Overeating is not advisable.

Eating in moderation, walking more and not getting angry are three seemingly simple methods. Stick to it, and you can eat healthily and happily in hot summer.
